Hello,
I am a 12 year old boy. I enjoy playing on my Xbox 360, watching TV and playing on the computar. I have friends, but I choose not to go out with them. My mum has now told me that there are new house rules, no Xbox at all and no TV before 12:00 on a school/weekday, which I think is fair. She has also said that becuase I wont be on the Xbox or the TV until 12:00, I need to find something to keep me occupied. I hate reading, I think it's boring. I wont step foot in a library. All the boy sports like Football, Rugby, Basketball ect... dosent appeal to me, although I do watch WWE Wrestling. I am now trying to sell my Xbox for some cash. I do enjoy dancing and gym. I also think squash is fun, but I dont really want to persue any of those things.
If you can help me find a hobbie in any way, please help. Thank you.
You can pick up an old lawnmowers or motorbikes and find the manual for it on the internet.
My partner used to love pulling engines apart, cleaning them up and putting them back together.
It's handy because if you have an interest it is a great way to prepare yourself for a career.
I think most people my age were lucky enough - im in my forties, and as such computers and game consoles were not common, TV was limited to 3 channels (TV) so we had to find our own entertainment
What my father did for me was by my a total banger (knackered) car when I was 11 and a manual of how to fix it
To say that I had fun is an understatment, to say me and my father had arguments was also an understatement
I loved finding out how the engine worked and how to take it apart
Dont get me wrong, I play xbox now, PC games and watch TV, but the knowledge I gained from mechanics has been invaluable
Just as some of the games you play are finding out where things go, or tools to help you on your journey so does fixing an engine
Plus you are dealing with petrol and electrical sparks - total fun
I think it takes a lot of courage to sell one own's game console! I don't that the guts to do that, lol! Well, I find that AMHD is one of the best hobbies I know. You learn, have fun, and learn, and have fun, and learn... well, you get my point!
I was going to suggest mechanics as well. Learn to fix small things, take some courses. Do they offer it at school? And you can use the profits from the xbox to buy parts and build a little robot or build a go cart. Or you can get kinex kits. Models cars. model airplanes.
What do you like?
Are you more artistic or more mechanical?
Have you ever considered getting involved in computer graphics?
I am a graphic artist and I could help you in that way if you want.
Get back here and we can talk.
What do you like Music,arts,crafts,woodwork?
Let us know and then we can better guide you.
Peace
Hi,
Thank you for all the answers you are all giving me, I am happy with the responces you are giving. I am sorry to say that I am not a michanical person :S. I am into Dance, Geography, Drama, Gymnastics, but I am not much into boys sports like Football, Rugby, I dont like Football becuase its anoying that I get teased by other kids saying Im rubbish. I cant stand Rugby becuase I broke my thumb playing it so that took me off the sport. I try Basketball at school, but I just cant score or defend. Thanks again for your help, this was a respond to peoples questions saying what do you like?
