We have been hearing about the word 'Passion' almost everywhere. I am posting to know what ILs are passionate about and to share my enthusiasm. I am an Software Developer by profession. I love painting. I do with both acrylics and oil paints. I like baking cakes. I am good at baking Orange cake I like to volunteer for children education in STEM ( Science,Technology, Engineering and Maths) related subjects. I run/walk in my free time. What are you passionate about? What is that you love and makes you happy?
Hmm instantly I can think of... Analogue (/film) Photography. Nature. Travel. Backpacking. Street walking. Cycling. Foooood! Tamil. Chennai and Chettinad, equally. Rain. Autumn weather. (I mostly plan home visits or vacation trips around that time of the year only). Coffee. Sunrise brand especially. With milk. My happy hour! Doodles, Illustrations, (Album/Movies/Books/Comics) Cover Arts, Posters, Digital Designs and Animations. (nope. no programming. It's just a job!) Comics and cartoons. Collectible Toys. Wikipedia? Anything witty, funny and humourous. Also dark comedies. Rum and romance! Lol. Love and Warmth. Annnd, Family! Makes anyone happy I guess.
Humour, fun, mischief, wordplay, sarcastic jokes, silly amusement nonsense, goof, lark, tomfoolery anti-serious, low-intelligence jello-drama, comical tease laughs, banter, frivolity absurdity, malarkey spontaneity impulse caprice whim elf zz T
Cooking / baking - but can't do it 3 times a day 24*7 Reading food blogs and the little snippets that comes with a good recipe Waking up to sunrise with a hot cup of filter coffee Reading books - preferably English classics Event planning / organising Photography Traveling Interior designing To name a few
Hello ILs, I am really enjoying reading through your posts on hobbies/ passions Thank you for sharing. If you add any more skills/hobbies in the future, do update in this thread .. happy learning !
Painting. With colors. Lots and lots of colors. Poetry when the mood strikes. Silly, nonsensical, serious, passionate Hindi serials (where I get lot of painting inspiration). But painting is top-down. Soft oil pastels. Any medium that is soft, pliable, and colorful. Artist quality oil pastels, mind you!
Hello ILs, Thank you for the response. It encourage others to post their hobbies/skills. If we pen down what we do, it will imprint in our brains and push us to be regular. Feeling like baking orange cake !
