| Just bought a bike today! Havent biked in atleast 10 years, used to love doing that as a kid. Building tree house and looking at my friends dads porn magazines in it was cool. My other hobby was riding around with my sling shot and breaking windows(no joke). |

| Lego's, yep played with them and put them together.worst part about it I had little ideas of what they would or would not do so when anyone would come over to play I'd freak the out! No No No the scuba people hate fire fighters, they can't coexist. Ahh to be a young whipper snapper again :rolleyes: |

Oh, I was also a decently involved amateur astronomy enthusiast.
I had my subscription to Astronomy magazine and me very own 60mm refractor! :p |

LOL, we were just talking about this with my brother a few days ago. I was making fun of him because he was such a big fan of these types of games and how he used to go hang out to this store on the mall to play on Saturdays. Then he said, "well, at least I was 14...there were some grown ass men, with women and children that used to go there"

Yeah I used to play but I always lost, not even sure if I knew how to play. Still have my cards.... wonder if these things are worth anything? |

My friend tried to get me into Magic but I don't think I ever had much enthusiasm for it. I was a more traditional nerd and always preferred chess.

Fixed (at least, that's what it was like for me :D) |

Heh, yeah, it's kind of hard on the ego when I attend FNM tournaments at my local card shops, and I'm sitting on ultra small chairs with my knees positioned in front of my chest...then the store owner makes the annoucement "we're closing in ten minutes- does everyone have a ride home?" But the age brackets at these tournaments is impressively broad, and there are some really skilled younger players who can put up quite a challenge.
In any event, Magic is one of those games that could go either way for you as you age; you can view it as something you've 'outgrown,' or you could just as well develop a greater appreciation for its emphasis on strategy and creativity (which is the camp I fall into).

If they have the words mox, lotus, time, or ancestral in the titles, they're worth nothing; send them to me for immediate disposal. |

I used to play with beetles and insects that I found outside.. think I caught a wasp once when I was like 2 and didn't know what it was and freaked my parents out.
a bit older like 8 - 12 years old I used to love drawing.. went to proper drawing classes and everything where we just sat there for hours drawing still lifes.. always had slightly obsessive, introverted hobbies I guess. |

I liked insects as well. Praying mantises, beetles, and woolly bear caterpillars were some of my favorites:
