Some people scrapbook, some play tennis, others keep silkworms. Everyone needs a hobby, something to sneak into conversation when you meet new people and don't want to talk about what you 'do' or where you went to school. Hobbies are way more fun, and it's always refreshing when you meet someone with a really weird hobby.
Like, finding cool and decorative ways to tie your shoelaces! You NEVER think of the way you thread your laces, you just do it; left over right over left etc. But did you know you can thread those suckers into a
Supernova? Or a
Double Helix? Go ahead and make them resemble some
Train Tracks if that's the way you roll. I attempted an
Asterisk after my brogues proved incapable of hosting a
Star of David. They were lacking in the eyelet department... awkward.
