Searching for a Hobby, Take 2

A little over 2 years ago, I started this blog, hoping to help myself discover my passions and talents. I got a little sidetracked after a bit, and stopped doing it. For a few months now, I've been wanting to come back to this blog. I still want to discover my passions and talents. I've learned some things about myself in the past 2 years. I've changed a bit in the past 2 years. I've realized a bit about what works for me and what doesn't. And I've decided to try doing this blog again. I'm going to come back with pretty much the same list that I started with before. I'm going to work on a hobby for 2 weeks now. And I'm going to be a little more lenient with myself, and more exploratory with the hobbies. 

So the list:
  • photography
  • gardening
  • singing 
  • piano 
  • cello
  • running/marathon training 
  • yoga 
  • sewing

  • crocheting/knitting
  • beauty 
  • get a pet
  • painting
  • drawing/sketching
  • woodworking

  • beading/jewelry making
  • pottery
  • home design
  • home repair
  • housework
  • reading
  • writing

This is enough stuff to take me more than 3 years!! But, hopefully, I will figure out my passions before I work through the whole list. Many of these things I just find interesting and intriguing, although, I have also tried many of them at some time or another. 

For my first hobby, I'm planning to work on collage because it's been in the back of my mind for awhile now. I'll write a post on it in a bit.
