A hobby is simply an activity you do when you have spare time. They are usually done at a leisure time usually to pass time, or reduce boredom or simply for fun.
People's hobbies could include reading, writing, singing, blogging, playing games, etc. My hobbies are playing dress up, reading novels, either from wattpad or light reader, listening to music and watching movies.
These hobbies depend on my type of mood or the time of freedom I have.
I noticed my hobby of playing dress up when I was a kid. My favorite fictional character was the hawk in justice league, and I tried so much to look like her each time I was watching the cartoon.
When I was in university and I was so stressed out, dressing up was one thing that came to mind. I'd just make myself up, look for something I rarely wear, and then disturb my roommate to take pictures of me. After that, I'll wash up and sleep. I usually wake up feeling refreshed after that.
My hobby of reading novels started when I was in high school. The first novel I ever read was titled "Not without my daughter" and written by Betty Mahmoody with Willian Hoffer. The novel was so captivating, I never wanted it to finish. I found out it was a true life story and even had a movie. It taught me about life outside my world.
That was the first time I realized there was a feud between Iran, Iraq and the United States of America. It was really educational. As time went on, I read so many novels, and exchanged with my friends and acquaintances.
There was a time I even got punished by my father because of my love for novels(that's a story for another day).
Coming down to music, there's the calmness that comes along with listening to your favourite artist. Music is already a pleasure to the soul, listening to a good sound at your leisure period just calms the nerves. Some people even sleep better, read better or perform better when there is a music playing.
My all time favourite musician is Simi. She is good. I could listen and sing along to her her music without getting bored. At one point, her songs were my roomates and I national anthem in university.
It became more than a hobby to just listen to her, it became a lifestyle. Truly, music is life.
Watching a movie on a novel you've read could be good or less. Good, when it was acted exactly like or better than what your read, bad if some parts were not just up to.
All the same, watching a movie is a pleasure. My dad used to call me television at one point because that was about my only hobby. I used all spare time to watch the television.

I've grown now to see that hobbies keep one alive in a certain way. You don't just exist, but have a fun part of you existing too. It's something we usually look forward to doing given any free time. My hobbies became me and I became I hobbies.
Thank you for reading.
When I read this line I laughed. This is something my younger sister does sometimes. She would just dress up and make herself up and tell me to take pictures of her. LMAO!
She usually ends up taking selfies because I do not usually have time for that.😂
Now I know that it is officially a hobby.
Thank you for sharing this with us.
It's a hobby o. Please help your sister to practice her hobby o🤣🤣🤣.
Thank you for reading.

You're welcome @megpeters, that's a real pleasure! Have a nice day 😊🌹
Your hobbies are quite awesome 👌. Simi is one of my favorite musicians as well. I love reading novels but i realised it was time consuming as i barely had the time luxuries for such. Your hobby of dressing up suits your appearance and it's great to see. Goodluck @megpeters
Thank you very much. I automatically love anyone that loves Simi...
aww🥰, that's awesome dear.
I almost lost concentration as a comrade when I saw your picture 🤯
We have caught the dressing up and doing makeup just for pictures and videos Geng.."Television"😂😂
Lmao, comrade, remain focused please.
Thank you very much for reading...
Dressing up to novels to music... these are quite cool hobbies o. But I hope you do not disturb your roommate in the picture-taking process of your dressing up.😄
I disturbed them o, but it was a welcomed disturbance...

Amazing, you will just dress up, take pictures and wash off. I guess you do the make up yourself. Or you'll stress someone's daughter to do just that for you? Amazing hobbies.. thanks so kindly for sharing.
Sometimes I don't. I have a pretty face, so some make up artists like using my face to show off their handwork. You're welcome. And thank you for reading.
Exciting hobbies, Engine boyz no dey carry last
