Library Of My Abandoned Hobbies

Hi howdy hey! How are Y'ALL doing? How's life treating you guys lately?! Are you guys enjoying winter? It hasn't fully arrived here yet but I'm still eagerly looking forward to it.
I was thinking about how I have tried so many so hobbies but rarely stuck to any . I am an easily influenced person. If I see a craft , DIY, or some kind of art ....i get easily confident in myself that I can do it too. And you know what!! I actually do even if I sound pretentious but that's the truth .Here are few of the hobbies I have tried in recent years.

Doodle

There was a phase in high school where I scrolled too much Pinterest and was easily influenced and dare I say? Inpressed by different kinds of arts in it. That's where I first came across doodle arts and it was love at first sight. I absolutely love how even in doodle art there are so many different styled like cute doodles, grundge art, zentangles, quirky or botanical vine art . I personally don't have any favourite style in doodle i just go with the flow. I have tried many different styles which are shown below 👇🏻

Painting

There was a time I was also influenced to paint but I'm going to be honest and tell you guys it was NOT one of my finest moments 💀 I wasn't really any good at it so no wonder I didn't stick to it but hey! Atleast i tried 🤷🏻‍♀️

Junk journaling

The fastest trend i ever fell into . There was a time my entire tiktok feed was filled with junk journaling and it looked so satisfying that I HAD to try it. But just like the fastest way I fell into the trap, even faster was the way I dropped it because I soon realised that it was a very time consuming not to mention space consuming activity. Also I did not find it as satisfying as I actually hoped it would be . Here are a few junk journal photos of mine:

baking

Baking has always been one the things I wanted to try . It was the only hobby that I wasn't influenced by but actually rather wanted it for a while . My first ever cake was literally anything but a cake 💀 i actually overbaked it and it turned out to be a slab of charred cake lol . But that didn't stop me from trying again so I kept trying and eventually got a little better . Then I also tried making cupcakes which were a little easier than cakes and I was also better at making cupcakes than cakes . And I did baked quite a lot of chocolate cupcakes. The only reason I stopped baking is because we didn't have any baking oven at home and then I ended living at hostel where there wasn't even any oven in first place but also got quite lazy so I just stopped baking and would just buy anything I wanted to have from the bakery 🤙🏻. Here's a pic of cupcakes i once baked.

Sketching/ Drawing

I also had a mini drawing phase. And i was actually pretty good at it. Honestly i was always good at drawing since young age . Even in school and college my biology diagrams were always almost perfect. I tried different types of sketching and drawings but i was never actually quite fond of this style . I once drew a medusa which I'll show you guys with some other drawings i did.

watching movies or TV series

I used to watch so many movies and tv series in my free time. I was always up to date with latest streems and trendy shows and had so many favourites too. I would literally binge an entire season in one night . But now ever since I started reading six years ago I have stopped watching much media. I'm afraid I've become one of those people who say books are always better than movies. Now i will literally sit and read and read four hours straight but watching an hour and half movie feels like chore .

Anyways that's it for today! These are the abandoned hobbies in my library. Just because these are abandoned doesn't mean they are forgotten. I still go back to these every once in a while if a mood strikes but not too much like i used too.
