Funky Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 So I was thinking of taking up a few hobbies to help me forget about my current situation and at the same time learn things that I've always wanted to learn. Here is what I have right now... Learning to play the guitar Learning Salsa dancing, I suppose it can even help me to meet someone else, haha Any hobbies that you would suggest or have taken up that have helped you?

quankanne Posted September 1, 2009 Posted September 1, 2009 fishing is a great place for contemplating your life.
