Old
Video games
funny books/manga
writing
movies
science fiction
reading

New
Drinking with friends and enemies
petty vandalism
Latin (I have to study the shit so much)
clowning on and with friends
I still like video games/ writing/ funny books but I have no fucking time. And if I do it goes to friends or studying.

I haven't lost any of my old hobbies but continue to gain new ones which is why I never have enough time for any of them, but videogames are still my number one.

I never felt that way.... and my little girl is awesome. You would love her too if you see her. When I wake her up in the morning, she gives me the biggest, happiest smile and there is nothing in the world that makes you feel more alive and loved. Sure, it is alot of work but I enjoy taking care of her. The joy of parenthood is truly amazing.

I missed seeing him tonight because of my #1 new hobby :(

I've had alot of hobbies. I have been playing or otherwise involved in music since I was seven. I raced RC cars from like 12-14. I started skateboarding when I was about 12 as well and continued that til I was about 26. I collected comics like a mofo from about age six until about age 21. I switched from superheroes to underground (Zap, Freak Brothers, Flaming Carrot etc) when I was about 14. I still read/buy them occasionally but it's not with the same collector perspective. I've always read books for as long as I can remember. I started snowboarding when I was 15 and carried on with that until about age 26. I was really really into scratching records and being a hip hop DJ from about 1995 to 2005. I still have my turntables and all of the good records but I really can't bothered to mix or scratch or any of that. I always played videogames too but it was never a big deal until 1998 when I saw Resident Evil 2. I got deeply into modding systems and making money off piracy and eventually used that dough to open a legit game shop. I have recently grown unbelievably tired of videogames and I have no idea when I even played one last. I tried my hand at a mixed martial arts gym called AMC Pankration in 2002. I liked it but it is soooo far away. In 2004 I found a Brazilian jiu jitsu school two miles from my house and have been training six days a week ever since. In fact I'm a teacher there now. I tried out the guitar earlier this year and even more than playing the thing I have taken a shine to fucking around with amps and pedals. I have an upcoming amp modification project that has me all stoked up. I'm sure I left a few things out and will pick up more in the future.
