    Tuesdays I go cinema, Wednesdays I meet my knitting group, Thursdays I go to a table quiz. Other than that I attempt to study and read or listen to an audio book while I knit. Browse the webz a lot.

    I am a wild child :D

    Pilates once or twice a week, german class once a week for the evening, singing. Have work exams twice a year so at the moment evenings are also spent cramming.
    That or meeting friends of course
    Was doing cello as well but just don't have the time to practice :(

    listen to an audio book while I knit.

    you should master the art of lurking on boards while knitting...this changes everything!

    At college again now so it's all over the place!!
    My current draft however is;
    Monday- College stuff, Dinner, City, Maybe friends house, cards, few jars
    Tuesday- College Stuff, likelihood of a session is funds are there
    Wednesday - College Stuff, catch up on sleep.
    Thursday - College stuff 50/50 between going out and staying in
    Friday - Go back home (: Chat and sleep
    Saturday - Catch up w/ friends, much missed midweek tv (American Dad, Fam Guy & Southpark and other series dotted in between, How I met your mother etc. :D )
    Sunday - Back up to college, college stuff on laptop, write up notes, make rough plan for the week, start week and repeat.

    Do a lot of walking in between,
    Aware it looks dreadfully stationary :P
    Have other one off college things in between,
    Like cinema and meetings too on occasion though,
    Aware it looks boring too,
    It can get very... :P

    No, I do pretty much **** all in the evening. I plan to do stuff, such as house work or working on a personal project, but then I do everything in my power to avoid starting it.

    Typical evening:
    Come home
    Feed the dog/cat
    Check internet stuff
    Bring the dog out for an hour
    Have dinner
    Watch tv
    Internet
    Bed.


  • Registered Users Posts: 657 ✭✭✭optimistic_


    Dinner, exercise, study, tv, prepare lunch, bed
    Dinner, exercise, study, tv, clean apt, bed

    Or some variant of that. College two nights a week too.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,959 ✭✭✭gugleguy


    play X Plane10/MS FS X for no more than 15 - 20 minutes or else Skyrim/DarksidersII on my VIAO.
    read one of my Dummies/O'reilly computer books.
    connect my samsung Galaxy Y and HTC ChaCha to the mains to power up for the next day.
    update my personal website in the now virtual ghost town that is Google Sites - I'm not on Facebook (:( ) and Twitter ( :D ) you see

    Lying.

    You forgot lying.

    It really isn't that unbelievable buddy. If you find it that hard to accept that people do these kind of things you need to have a look at your own life. Please, for your own good and the good of those who have to be around you, do something different if you think my list is that extraordinary. Same goes with anyone who agrees with your sentiments. It's so sad if you don't believe that other people aren't occupied in their evenings. You're missing out. Don't get cynical just because your life sucks. There's a lot more to life than sitting in front of a screen and taking the piss out of other people.

    Just checked. You're hitting 17 posts a day and you've been here over a year. You really, really aren't qualified to judge what's possible regarding people's free time...

    Here's a start. Spend less time on the computer. You can then at least comment on things you've tried which involve getting away from the internet.
