My hobby

My hobby is dancing. Dance is very popular now and a lot of people do it – from 6-year-old children to 40-year-old adults.
When you dance you only need comfortable clothes and shoes. But not all clothes match the dance style: for example, you can’t dance ballet in loose clothes – it would look really strange.
I think that my parents were my inspiration. They danced so I do that too. However, I don’t dance only one style of dance like them, I like to mix everything up.
The most difficult thing is to feel the rhythm and the style of dance. Every dance style has got its own rhythm and the way of moving.
In my opinion, dance is the best way to keep fit and be healthy. When you dance, you can relax, and dance makes you feel really happy.

My hobby is unusual for young people. Collecting nails is not very popular, but it can give you a lot of satisfaction.
I took it up three years ago because I was fed up of having nothing to do in the evenings. Now, I’m exchanging nails with my friends and it’s great! It’s the best way to relax.
To do it, you don’t need any special equipment, only your imagination. In the beginning you will collect regular nails from shops, but, after some time, you will get “nails with history” (for example, my friend has got a nail from Pilsudski’s Kasztanka’s hoof).
One of the most difficult things to master is recognising nails with closed eyes.
So, all I can say to the beginners about collecting nails is that it’s an extremely amazing hobby. If you start, you will never want to finish with it.
My hobby is basketball. It’s a team sport in which players score points by shooting a ball through the basket above. Everybody can play basketball, unless they don’t like doing sports.
The equipment to play it are a basket, a ball and some comfortable clothes.
I didn’t have any special inspirations to take up playing it. Maybe the only reason why I started was that my older brother played this sport in some team. The first time I played it was when I was about 7.
Basketball is a great way to relax. It’s an exhausting sport, but I find a lot of pleasure in it. The benefits to me since I started it are the improvement of my shape and the fact that I feel a lot better. I’d rather play basketball than sit at home and do nothing.
Mine’s an unusual hobby for young people. It is drawing squares. Only idiots do something like that, or normal people when they are bored. But I draw squares all the time!
If you want to start drawing squares, you need to have a pencil and, if you are a newbie, a ruler too.
My inspiration to start was maths. When we had geometry I fell in love with squares. It’s a great way to relax and it’s very addictive.
One of the hardest things is to draw a square which is 10 sq.m. It’s really difficult.
The best thing about it is that you have an extremely trained wrist. It is really good and cool so I recommend it, especially if you have problems with geometry.
Rafal, can I start worshipping you from now on for your hobby? ; D
