I really had to think just to come up with nothing lol
I get REALLY into something for 2 weeks then I drop it and never look back. I was into minerals/mineralogy for a few years I guess, but I'm not all that knowledgeable. I just really like copper bearing minerals like dioptase and azurite.
I joke that my real hobby is shopping for my new hobby but it's not really a joke is it
God, this is so me. If I had to pick one, I'd say writing/story telling, but I'll never be able to finish writing a book or a script because 2 months is basically my max
Hobby collecting!
I'm not really into mineralogy, but damn is it fascinating. I just think all of the minerals and gems look so cool.
My dad and I went to the Smithsonian Natural History museum recently and by far our favorite part was the gems and minerals. I could spend hours in that one part of the museum.
That's where I'm at too. I said mineralogy, but really just because I didn't know a concise way of putting "I just like how minerals look" in terms of an interest. Lol
Definitely agree on the Smithsonian, such a cool section!
