Make a comprehensive list of things you enjoy doing.

Post Reply New Topic

ITT(In this topic), we will make comprehensive lists of behaviors that we enjoy engaging in. Through this activity we will be able to both express ourselves(gaining self knowledge) and get to know each other better(community building activity).

THINGS I ENJOY DOING:
SMOKING WEED AND LISTENING TO CLASSICAL MUSIC
DRIVING AROUND FAST AND LISTENING TO THE STOOGES
READING BOOKS THAT ARE LISTS (TOP TEN TANKS OF WORLD WAR II, TOP 50 MOST DESTRUCTIVE WEAPONS, A CHILDREN'S TREASURY OF FIGHTER JETS)
SMOKING FIRST CIGARETTE OF THE DAY
GETTING AWAY WITH DOING ILLEGAL STUFF

1) Building my ham radio gear, building is much more fun than operating.

2) Working my way through my DVD collection.

3) Surfing the net.

4) Watching TV.

5) Visits to the movies now and again providing it's something decent.

6) Pulling stuff apart to see how it runs, I've been doing this since I was a kid.

7) Walking round the shopping malls on my own.



Hmmmmm, all solo activities. Discuss.

5 surf internet for fun
6 get hi

1. Figuring things out (I like puzzles).

The rest are in no particular order.

Scenic drives.
Listening to music (at home, in the car, or going to concerts/shows).
Playing music.
Reading (wide variety of genres and subjects).
Watching movies (video or theater).
Going for walks in malls (I like people watching).
Long, moonlit strolls on the beach...oh, wait...wrong forum...

Things I enjoy

I'm anhedonic so it's a little hard to right this list, but I can enjoy things on a non-emotional level to a degree.

1. Playing goalkeeper, I'm okay at it.

2. "Working out" in general, I love the feeling you get after half an hour of running on a pitch or hopping walls or whatever.

3. Exploring abandoned buildings, I love climbing old ruined buildings or factories, especially if there's a risk of falling.

4. I'm a generally law-abiding guy (to the degree I follow any law with moral foundation), but I tend to trespass now and then for the giggles. I love running from the police when they get called

5. Biology. I love biology class, and medical science in general. My dream is to become a Doctor, as I'm a highly moraly run person and if my aspie trait of "being a medical encyclopedia" could come in handy I'd love to use that to help people.

6. Piano, both playing and listening. I could listen to Rachmaninov for hours, and attempt to play it until the RSI sets in

7. Dreaming. My dreams are mostly melodramatic and strangely beautiful. Twelve hours a day would be my ideal ratio of sleep to consiousness, but in practice I sleep from Four to One.

8. Ranting. I love, beyond words, ranting on about pointless topics. I spent fifteen minutes today talking about useless inventions other people have made, and how cool a gunhand would be. You gesture your hand, as if shooting a gun, and the barrel implanted in your hand is fired, killing anyone at the other end. Genius.

9. Work. Manual work makes me feel more useful

10. Pain, weirdly. I'm not masochistic or anything, but I am hyposensitive. As such, I can shake of just about anything. I've been hit in the face, followed by the solar plexus, and the cajones in one watch, extremely hard (the shot was taken from three metres, full force), and I just shook it off straight away. My friends are always a little freaked out when stuff like that happens

11. 3D Graphic design. I'm good at it, I think.

you said comprehensive...

Travel
Reading
Making mixed media sculptures!
Visiting thrift shops and yard sales

Research
Collaging
Listening to MP3s (Classical, Techno, International Music)
Editing my Palm OS databases
Organizing things with my hands

I have one, actually! Its much more comprehensive than anything anyone has listed here. It includes activities I enjoy as well as objects, music, food.. etc. I won't post it here but I made it for myself as an attempt to try to regain my identity because I tend to supress my wants/likes in favor of people that I care about and during the time of my marriage I almost forgot myself completely.

Since coming to WP and, seperately, making that list I am better. Could still use some work, though!

Hey behavioralalgorithm Great idea and welcome to the forum. This was an effective way on getting people to jump on your introduction

So me then:

Online, on computer
* Browsing YouTube for random hilarious and amazing videos
*Working with my own videos to YouTube
*Making computerart, mostly in photoshop
*Talking random stuff on WP forum

Offline, out of computer
*Be together with my cat or anybody elses cat, adore cats
*Travelling to other countries and make videos and photos
*Tidy up and clean my home or my mums home (very relaxing in fact...)
*Bike around as crazy in the center city or even better - in the rare countryside
