    I do Taekwon-Do, I'm only a white belt but apparently I have alot of potential.
    That reminds me, this Tuesday I have a fundraiser for my club, it's called a sparathon, it's like a marathon but we will be sparring instead of...er...mararing or something <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo--> . Basicly 25 one and a half minute rounds with a 15 second break in between each bout.

    Can anyone say, fun?

    I swing dance year-round, as much as I can.  Recently placed first in a national (novice) competition.  (:
    I snowboard whenever there's snow on the ground and I can afford a lift ticket.  Neither of those conditions are met often enough.
    I draw and write (poetry).  A fair amount of my work can be seen on my website, which you can get to by clicking my signature.
    I road-bike, rollerblade, and rock-climb - 3 activities I recommend to ANYONE.
    I play Dance Dance Revolution whenever I can get to a machine.  (:

    Wow, you dont share that computer with your family, do you?! (Humbaba remembers when he caught his brother . . . at the computer, Humbaba Burns his mouse and cleans his hand in acid) Anyway . .for myself. I run track, mostly sprints, though Im moving up to middle distance next year, which means my coach will be the Child Molester Long Distance coach who gives all the girls his cell phone numbers and is 4 feet tall. Uh . .sorry, too much info. Lets just say Im not looking forward to doing long/middle distance this year.
    I also paint and draw, I'm pretty good with the pencil, one of my drawings wen't to new york in some competition that my teacher entered me in, but I forgot what it was. . . as of now, I am working on becoming very good at water color and pen and ink.
    Other than that, I spend a lot of my non-computer time either A: Working out (to offset the ill effects of playtesting for 3 straight hours at 12<!--emo&:0--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':0'><!--endemo-->0 at night) or B: Hanging with friends, who are constantly investigating NS and begging to play it.
    And I go to the beach whenever I can. In between, theres Homework and Girls, and the rest of my time goes right here for NS.

    When im not in the pc i tend to go out with my gf, play Rugby (ya, the best sport <b><i><u>EVER</u></i></b>,i also play football, im not really good at it, but i can play and score some goals.
    Im also trying to learn how to skateboard, but its not a very popular thing in my country, so its hard to find somebody that could teach you. And basically i just hang around at the discos (MWAHAHAHAHAHA  LIVE IN ARGENTINA AND THE DISCOS ARE FOR EVERYBODY OVER 13 HAHAHAAHHAAHA) and i have a lot of fun <!--emo&:D--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'><!--endemo-->.

    I'm actually usually quite a social person of an evening, I spend alot of my time in my local pub spending far too much money. I'm on a freelance contract with work atm but ive been very busy recently. Whenever theres gigs on in my town I pootle down to them, I jogged until recently, upper body weight training to try and bulk out so I don't look like a pansy if i go thorough with my army application. Hang out with my mates and invent new extreme sports and generally end up damaing myself alot D=
    All in the name of fun.

    I play guitar (both acoustic and electric), and also play alto saxophone for our school's pep band (aka scream various insults and obscenities at the other team during hockey games.)  I also like throwing around a frisbee just for fun.

    I ride, abseil and rock-climb, seems rather pointless no? Abseil down, climb back up, repeat until tired/dead.

    I seem to damage myself an unfair amount when doing non-computer stuff. I hurt my thumb abseiling three weeks ago and it's still hurting. I once scratched my eyelid with the rusty, frayed end of a steel cable that we were using for a rope swing out over a river while we were on a bike hike. I had to swim about 75 metres across to the other side of the river to put something on it, dribbling blood the entire time. Fun fun!
