Antigeek Dave says that for the first time in ages he feels like learning something new.
Lots of us spent a long time as students, and pride ourselves on our knowledge and all that, but to be honest, apart from writing and getting to grips with my job, I haven't really been learning very much lately.
I brought my guitar back with me from a visit to the Island a while back, and whilst I'm happy to have it with me, I've only picked it up a few times in the weeks I've had it here. I will play more.
I think I'd better start something new, too.
Otherwise I'm going to get out of the habit of learning, and well, I don't want to start thinking that I've finished...
There are those salsa lessons in St. Albans that Allie and Ihaven't been to yet...(in the stylish, converted church, 'Club Havana'...mmm, classy) and all of the feelings I have about that mean that I am probably only looking for something that I can learn without making a numpty of myself...
There's a martial arts class in Hatfield somewhere, and I accompanied my black-belt Dad to a few sessions in the past before changing my mind about Karate - mostly because it was his 'thing'.
Thoughts, anyone?
What the hell do you actually get up to?
Well, I do Taekwon-do. It's fun, but a big time commitment. It's nice to be in shape, though.
Also, I want to learn to knit. It seems like it would be cool, and you can do it while pretending to listen to people in meetings.
Feck all at the moment as I'm still recovering from breaking my foot playing basketball.
Mainly sports though, although recently got a telescope and I'm practising seeing into the neighbour's bedrooms... I mean... stargazing... (although the woman in number 14 is kinda sexy...)
Right, so so far we've got time-consuming Tae-kwon-do, or voyeurism.
I'm taking this all on board.
Anyone else?
it's horribly, inexcusably egotistical to write a comment on YOUR site in response to one you left on MINE, but apparently email isn't getting through to you, and today's all about trying something new anyway, yes?
dude, stuart, you aren't going to get slapped.
check your email.
and salsa sounds LOVELY.
Kate!
Feel free.
