I used to be in a band and that took up a lot of time. As we got older, left uni and got jobs, we all sort of went our seperate ways. I still enjoy music, and I dont go far out of the house without my iPod, but I think it has become less defining of my character. My tastes have diversified too, where once I would have defined myself as a punk, I now listen to different genres depending on my mood.
I also do table top war games (lord of the rings) but I think the thing with videogames is, like cinema, they are something you can just sort of chill out and loose yourself in. I enjoy creative activities and social activities but sometimes its nice to just absorb myself in a game. I think the other reason I enjoy it is it is something I can do while im watching a film or listening to a cd.
