Finding something to fill that spare time with meaning After a long day at school, hobbies are an excellent way to relax and exercise one's creative abilities. Hob- bies are a fun way to pass the time and develop outside interests. The most difficult thing about a hobby is finding the one best suited to the individual. There are endless possibilities for hobbies, ranging from quiet activities like sewing, painting or music to more adventur- ous pastimes such as hang gliding or water skiing. Whatever a person's interests may be, there is sure to be a 3 3 . ir ee 134 leisure hobby to suit them. Different hobbies suit different people but one hobby that is popular with everyone is reading. Books that are most popular are books which movies have been adapted from such as The Omen, The Great Gats- by , and Alive. Photography is also on the rise as a hobby with Crockett students set- ting up dark rooms and buying cam- eras. Some students are practicing their hobbies across the street at Hot Wheels.
