Hobbies, Free Time and Lifestyle Essay

Hobbies are activities that allow us to spend our free time and relax whilst doing something we enjoy. Our leisure time is used for entertainment and fun.

To have a hobby is a very important thing because people have a need to realize themselves in different ways. For young children and teenagers it is a way to develop their skills and talent and of course to keep them away from things like drugs, alcohol and bad company.

Some people are lucky with their jobs because they do what they wanted to do and their job became their hobby. It’s good because their work satisfies them and they can become successful. However, some of them don’t know when to switch off and do something else. Even psychologists are said it’s not good to be a workaholic, and that people with enough relaxation and whose hobby is different from their profession are much happier. Then they are more efficient when then they start working again.

We can sort hobbies into different categories: girls and boys hobbies, men’s and women’s, indoor and outdoor, etc.

Some of us like collecting objects - stamps, postcards, badges, model cars, ships, coins, guns, beetles or even bottles. Collectors attend special shows where they have the chance to swap and exchange their items with others.

The teenagers like to do physical activities, for example playing the ball games like football, basketball, volleyball, golf, bowling, water polo, squash, tennis and table tennis. Other activities include playing ice-hockey, running, jogging, swimming, going camping, hiking, fishing or hunting. Nowadays, is very popular for girls to go to a fitness centre to be slim and to keep fit. Boys prefer to go to clubs where they can play snooker, pool or darts. Not all of us are good at sport, but instead enjoy watching it on TV. Some children are interested in reading books or magazines, watching TV, video or DVD, or playing board games such as chess, cards, scrabbles or monopoly.

A lot of people take pleasure in art and they spend they free time painting, drawing, pottering, singing or listening to music. They like to visit theatres, ballet and concerts. The most popular art form is music. We listen to it at work, at home, and even when we are driving. It is quite common to see young people walking down the street with headsets on. We can take music lessons at music school where we learn to play a musical instrument.

The younger generation is crazy for computers, playing all sorts of computers and play-stations games and searching on the internet. They can spend many hours a day on the computer. On one hand it’s good because children will become computer literate which today is very important. On the other hand it’s bad for them as they don’t do any sport and become lazy and fat.

Older people who are married and have families fill their leisure time with usual household activities. They do gardening, some home DIY (do it yourself) repairing (paint the window frames, repair the roof, etc.), decorating the house, washing and maintaining their cars. But parents always try to find a time to spend with their children like taking them to the Zoo, skiing, travelling, visiting relatives, picking mushrooms or having a barbecue. Ours mothers always find extra time for themselves which they use for visiting beauty salons, shopping, keeping fit in the gym or doing exercises at home, talking to their friends, collecting recipes, reading novels, etc. It used to be very popular for them to do needlework such as knitting, sewing or cross-stitching but not any more.

At present everything is very expensive so it is not easy to do hobbies which we like. Whatever hobbies we choose it is important that they help us relax and bring pleasure.
