Woah!! I like this thread!
I guess it's the rookies turn! Well this young rookie ain't got much to tell, so I'll try to keep the autobiography short, lol.

Edited: This ISNT SHORT, as I promised, lol.


For hobbies when I'm not on any Mobile Nations forums:

I binge watch Netflix for a while, started watching the old tv series Prison Break last week.

I edit videos and pictures sometimes for my sister a few times a week.

I recently stopped but I develop Android apps using Android Studio. I might get back on that during the summer though.

Recently stopped but I also do some game development here and there for personal use.

I regularly check all of my emails.

Usually go out with some friends Friday and Saturday nights.

Read articles on the latest and greatest everything!

Building PC's (@ My Job)

And enjoying the day with family and or friends.

Okay so I guess I should post here too!

I am still going to school which takes care of my time in the morning and early afternoon.

I don't have any special hobbies, but I like to experiment around the PC and my phone a bit, recently I've built a PC for the first time and the feeling was so good when I attached the last component and the PC started running!

I also enjoy playing videogames (Windows Store is far behind Steam, sorry Microsoft) and watching Netflix.

I do some light programming and I tried to learn about Windows UWP development at Microsoft Virtual Academy, but it didn't really teach me everything I feel I need to understand it properly. Maybe the problem is my lack of knowledge of C#, because I thought that the logic behind all programming languages is the same. Maybe I'll try again in the Summer.

I like listening to music, I used to be "the wannabe 80's kid" but now my taste changes quite often.

When I have time, I also like to read science fiction or criminal thrillers, sometimes history books (yeah I know right, what a combination - computer science and history).

I go out from time to time, but in my country people are still a bit conservative about young generations going out in the late evening, which means I don't go out as often because I wouldn't get much company.

EDIT: forgot to add that I also like to play soccer and other sports with balls when I have time

Greeting! I'm running around the MobileNations like a Crazy Lady.... My home is on Crackberry and have been a member since 2010. I will be learning as much as possible (with this empty head of mine) with all the different OS's and accessories. It's FUN!!!
I also am a eBay and Amazon Queen of Buying.

Hi everyone,

Thanks for the good question. Its really interesting to see how diverse this community is. :D

I am an architecture student at Jomo Kenyatta University (JKUAT) in Nairobi, Kenya, but whenever am not on Windows central I spend my time creating art and some design innovations for environmental problems.

I love wood carving, pencil renders, watercolor painting and these days because of the incredible advancements in Windows apps, I also create digital paintings.

Design-wise I have created 4-in-1 studio tables, wind-turbine green buildings, desalinating houses, recyclable furniture and even won the Disruption by Design (DxD) Award for Architecture 2015.

My motto is that its always good to be busy thinking and creating stuff. Its the fun of life! :P

Thank you. Glad you like it. :)

Have a nice day!

Outside of Mobile Nations... Hmm... LOL

I am married to my best friend, really. I have a daughter who just turned two and a boy that could be here any day. I worked in the technology (network and systems administration) field for around 14 years and very recently decided to stay home and take care of my kids. I have a very entrepreneurial spirit so I am not sure how this will work out.

Outside of my time on here I enjoy collecting/repairing old video games and Arcade machines. I also collect BlackBerry swag and devices.

My wife and I enjoy spending time outdoors and traveling. We host a lot of parties at our house and like to be social.

That's awesome! Congrats on your recent marriage. Collecting and repairing old games and arcade machines sounds like great fun too! It is something that I would be interested in, if I could find the time.

Now that its summer I love to work in the yard. I'm a nature person and feel at ease outdoors amongst the trees, fresh air, and nature.

Spend way too much time online reading and participating in threads on various topics. My wife and i have several favorite TV shows we watch weekly. I like to go fishing with my brother and while doing so drink beer and solve the worlds problems.

I like to travel as a hobby. I love to go places with my wife, but due to family and school, we can't go very much. I do get in on a good bit of traveling though because of church-related missions with which I am involved.

In fact, less than two weeks ago I returned from a solo around-the-world trip. It was a missions trip to Asia, but I stretched it a couple days at each end to visit expat friends. The end result was that my schedule took me westbound around the world. Any flat-earthers here? I'd like to have a word with you.

IT support. collecting manga and anime. foody.

Right now I'm rewatching Tenchi Muyo Ryo-Ohki waiting for new episodes of latest releases.

my gaming has died down a lot. just not enough time to sit down for lengthy gaming like I used to. but I occasionally play hack and slash rpg and fighting games.

I am trying (and failing) to learn Java to become Java certified for a career change. Any advice to a complete novice is very welcome.

I wouldn't say failing, doing nothing at all is failing .

To prevent a double post, well what I do in my spare.. time.. well don't really have much of an answer to that. I suppose you could say my hobby is just self improvement.

I try to live by Bruce Lee's profound quote:

"Empty your mind, be shapeless, be formless, like water. You put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. Put it into a tea pot, it becomes the tea pot. Now water can flow, creep, drip or crash. Be water my friend".

I like your idea of self improvement. That's good. I am slowly working on Java. This is the first time I am taking learning a programming language seriously.

Well I usually hang out mostly at iMore but do come here, usually looking for answers to Windows issues some of my users may be having.

Unfortunately I've gotten into a really expensive hobby that rivals fine wines and cigars:

photography

I have several cameras (all Canon as that's what I got initially several years ago) and always keep a bag in my car because you never know when something's going to happen.
