My Hobby is having Multiple Hobbies…
Hello Love!
As y’all know I want to try as much as I can, and this year I made a goal for myself to try and take up as many hobbies as I am able. These hobbies range from cooking to ice skating, and in my opinion I think anything can be considered as a hobby. Here is the list that I made of all the hobbies that I am going to try this year.
Number 1: Running
I run about 2 times a month and to be honest I really just walk. I am hoping to become one of those girls that looks forward to running everyday. I saw a video the other day and a girl said it took her over 30 runs to actually enjoy it so I am slowly reaching that goal. Right now the weather is kind of whack, so that's my current excuse, but I will get to it eventually. Also, I have been Dr.Pepper sober for 4 years now and the cravings have been overbearing these past few months. This is important because I made myself a deal that if I do any kind of workout for more than 45 minutes, then I can have 1 Dr. Pepper. I am so excited to have Dr. Pepper again you don’t even understand. Hahaha.
Number 2: Pottery
I LOVE clay. Clay is one of my favorite mediums to use in my art. I have created frames, dolls, and little trinkets in the past. With this hobby I honestly want to take a class over it and learn how to throw. My mom is also interested in this so it can be a cute little mother daughter thing that we can do together. The goal is to make enough cups and plates and all that to fill my apartment and not have to buy anything. I also think it's just a cool skill to have.
Number 3: Cooking
I grew up in a frozen food for dinner kind of family. My moms most exquisite meal was spaghetti. And because of that I never learned how to cook. This has been a dream of mine for forever and I have tried before. I think I could be really good at this one because I am decent at following directions, but I want to get to the point that I don't need a recipe to follow. Maybe I could share some of my favorite recipes when I find them. *added to my blog ideas notes page*
Number 4: Journaling
Ok, Journaling is wayyyy harder than it seems, but I am starting to get the hang of it. This year my big goal was to start journaling so that I could create a visual representation of how my memories look. I have only created one page so far and it is honestly so cute. I am scared to try to make another one because I don’t think anything could live up to the way this one looks. I’ll insert a picture if I can figure it out. Another reason that I want to journal so badly is so that I can share how I did it. I feel like there aren’t many easy-to-follow tutorials on how to make a super aesthetic journal page, so if y’all want a step-by-step guide let me know. Ooooo, maybe I could even create a little bundle for y’all so that you can create a page that looks like mine.
Number 5: Blogging
Hehehe, ok y’all, this is the one I am really being intentional with this year. I have high hopes for this hobby. I am stepping into this blindly so hopefully all goes well, but I am really excited to have an outlet where I can write about my opinions and random thoughts. I’ve already gone over my goals for this blog in my last post so if you haven’t read that one go check it out.
Those are my Top 5 hobbies this year. Some of the other hobbies that I am trying are Latte art, Patchwork stuffed animals, Jewelry making, archery, crocheting, painting, traveling, baking, ice skating, and sewing.
Here's the deal: half of these hobbies I already do. I mean, I literally work as a barista so that covers latte art, and I have to travel a bunch this year so that covers traveling. You can turn anything into a hobby. I believe that by turning something you already do into a hobby or goal it makes it way more fun. I love making the simple things in life a little more meaningful.
I will keep y’all updated on all the hobbies I try out.
With Love,
Pixie Rain
