Hobbys

Everybody needs a hobby right? These are some of my hobbys. (Please dont laugh!)

One of my many hobbys is my devotion to the wonderfully drawn animation from Japan. In the U.S., our views of animation is something we watch as kids and grow out of when we grow up. In Japan though, animation is seen as another median in the mass media. Many Japanese animation's(a.k.a. anime) are not jest aimed at kids, but are aimed at older groups; showing that you can tell a good story with animation. I've been a fan of anime for a long time now, I have seen many videos and read much comics from Japan called manga(which roughly translated means "crummy pictures"). Anime is by far my most favorite hobby's I have, and the one I spend the most money on to.

The picture to the far left is the official logo for anime expo 1999 held in Sacramento, California. The next one is some samples of my collection.
This is not really a hobby, but more of something I do when I have too much free time. I've played video games all my life since 1st grade when my family got a NES. Since then whenever I had nothing to do, I was on my butt playing video games. So far there have been 5 game platforms in my house: the NES, the SNES, the Sega Geneseis, the N64, and a Playstation shown here. I've had it for 4 years now and it will soon reach it's prime when the new video game systems come out.
Not one of my major hobby's but I still enjoy it now and then. War gaming has always been one of my side hobby's because of the cost of fig's and the time devotion to paint them all.

This is the box cover for the Warhammer 40K starter set.
Role-playing has been an interest to me for a long time now. My brother and his friends have played fantasy role-playing games for years and now he wants to get his friends and me back into it again. Right now we are trying to start a D&D campaign with me, and as many players my brother can get. Of course he hasn't been able to hold a campaign for more then three games.
