Every
other Thursday here at The Broke & The Bookish is A Cocktail
Conversation time. One of the TB&TB members will pose a question to
2-3 of the other members of TB&TB crew about books, life, music, etc
and then they'll answer and we can converse about it. So grab a
cocktail & cozy up for some conversation. It's 5 o'clock somewhere,
friends.
The question this week is:
What is something you'd like to learn or a hobby you'd like to take up?
Lauren says...
Does something you kind of know how to do, but want
to start again count as a hobby? Yes. Yes it does. I learned how to play
bass guitar in high school, but I didn't really get into it. I knew
some chords, but I STILL want to learn how to play by ear and be the
rocking badass bassist that I know I can am. Sometimes a girl just needs
to play a little Metallica herself and find her happy place.
Also... does opening up a dog resort count? Yeah... that too.

I have a few things that I have been
wanting to take up or continue learning. First is sewing. I really want
to learn how to sew. I think it would be fun and useful! I just haven't
had the time to go take a class. Also I've always wanted to learn an
instrument that I can play while I sing. I've tried guitar and piano in
the past. So I'd like to pick that up again.

Oh man I have so many things I would love to learn/take up as a hobby. First, I would love to learn a few languages. I took AP Spanish in high school and then tested out in college but I wish I would have kept up with it. I've had the app Duolingo on my phone for the past couple years and I go through phases of relearning the Spanish but this Fall I started again pretty seriously when we booked our Madrid trip and it's AMAZING how much I've retained. Like some of these lessons I already know all the words and meanings and stuff which is pretty cool considering the last time I took Spanish was in 2004. I also have ALWAYS wanted to surf since college when I was friends with a bunch of guys who were surfers. Big problem: TERRIFIED OF SHARKS SOOOO.
What about you all? What is a hobby you'd love to take up or something you'd like to learn?

I too keep meaning to take up sewing and I would also love to go surfing one day. We shall see. I hope you all get a chance to explore these new hobbies!
ReplyDeleteJamie: I stopped taking German this year at school, and I miss it so much! I think learning a second language is important and I'd love to be fluent in something other than English. I definitely need to work on relearning. Thanks for reminding me!
