What do you do in your spare time?
OK so we've had the 'what do you do to relax?' thread, but here's the 'what do you do in your spare time thats not necessarily relaxing?' thread. And yeah i do realise Civ (any number) is a given.
I play Ultimate frisbee in a league (quite competitive but highly fun), take dancing lessons, and as of today i play golf - the reason that its not relaxing at the moment is because i can't seem to hit the damn ball yet....but its early days yet.

Ultimate frisbee is like football played with a frisbee. You have to pass it to your teammates across a field.

It's like rugby/football more than soccer (since there's no goal or goalie, but only an end/try zone)

No point after touchdown, tho9ugh

It;'s a very informal "sport"

Ultimate Frisbee has been around for at least twenty years.

i dont really see why people equate rugby and football with each other. they seem very different. the whole gay innuendo of rugby seperates it vastly from the manly sport of football

Winter, I snowboard a lot. I love it. I also try to learn to cook good, so sometimes I grab some recepies and screw it up. But I try hard .

Sometimes I go to the gym and start some crap. It's all fun. In my last sparring though I got KOd the first time of my life by my friend, it wasn't very fun. I have spent little time off since then . I'll be back though, fists in the air.

Now, I'm busy with a new website I'm building, and it takes most of my time, but it's ok I like it.

Other than that, pretty much my time goes to studying. So, I have very little spare time that I just hang around and do nothing.

That's just the natural result of having a British origin.

Rugby is a ****ing hardass sport. When I played my senior year in HS I got in tremendous shape.

Could run forever without betting tired.
