Need a change...

IrishLad90

Okay, so I am looking for a new hobby or just something to do to get me out of the house more. Im a bit of a loner and want to broaden my horizons. Im 22 and each year i noticed im doing less, im trying to get a decent bike so i can get out cycling when the weather gets better.
Any advice?

I'm thinking of going to a sketch group this weekend. It looks like fun and it would be nice to meet a fellow Boardsie in the process. Don't know if you can draw, OP but it's open to everyone and they all meet up for coffee and chats afterwards.
Check this page out: They seem like a nice crowd.

Have you tried turning it off and back on again?

watch people.
just go out, sit somewhere and watch people interacting. if you can do it without anyone noticing, follow them from place to place and see how they go about their day.

its not weird, honest.

You should try and do something you're interested in. That way you will be more likely to keep it up, on those inevitable lazy days, than something you are only half interested in.

Depends on your own interests and what is available locally to you.

Kold

Have you considered child molestation? It's pretty popular amongst celebrities these days.

Join a 12 step programme. You don't have to have an addiction. Afterwards be wary of people called Tyler.

Have you a slightly higher than average tolerence for pain and humiliation?

Confused in life?
Maybe a bit lazy?
Can you find yourself making bad decisions at times?
Would you like to talk about doing more while actually doing less?
Do you feel completely cut off from the real world?

Then perhaps a career in our local Government is for you!

Try playing dodgeball!
It's good fun, and great exercise. AND you can hit people in the face with a ball.
As far as I know, there is a club in Dublin and in Waterford.

Contact your local community radio. They are always looking for people to join. Its a great hobby, increases your social skills and it also puts you on a path of a career you can follow.

Exercise, go back to college and learn something new or get a qualification, voluntary work, there is loads of stuff, you are in charge of your own destiny and make it what it is!!

You've got a bike so why not join one of those cycling groups? You know the lads who ride three abreast in their lycra. I imagine the gears pretty expensive though.

Find your local League of Ireland club and get involved even if its just by becoming a fan and going to the games. The fun you have and the friends you will make while watching football is truly life altering. Go for it.

You could just go down to your local and watch football while getting drunk

If you're getting a bike, get a Downhill bike.

Don't bother wasting your time, everyday is just another step closer to death.

Not as much fun as getting drunk on a bus with loads of loons, singing your heart out in a ground and screaming at the ref while smelling the fresh cut grass and deep heat. NOTHING BEATS IT.

Breaks my heart that I don't have it anymore. Can barely watch football on tv now.

This is usually always a suggestion in threads like this but it is a good one - join a gym. It takes up time from your day, you can interact with people and it makes you feel good about yourself.

Scientology is great auld craic I've heard but really, try taking up running, go into a good running shoe place and get their advice. Probably a club in your area as well.

Would you believe I was going to do that, then i seen how much i'd to raise and had second thoughts, partly because I don't know enough people to be able to raise over 600 :pac:
