How do you pass time when you're not on ATS???

Well I spent a nice afternoon with fellow staffer Masqua and his lovely wife. Does that count?

It's really great reading about the people of ATS and their lives and their likes/dislikes. It brings us back to the reality that we all have lives outside of ATS and we aren't Misoir we are ___.

I'm 36,a mother to 4 and a home-schooler so,much of my time is spent with my children either playing or teaching.We grow our own food so that keeps me busy too and we spend alot of time out on nature walks or bike rides.....but me personally,(when the children are asleep).....i like to research whatever i'm interested in or topics i've seen posted on here,i skywatch,i read books,play the guitar in the evenings with my long suffering beau,i'm a solitary witch and i make herbal concoctions for ailments and like to dedicate time to furthering my own education re plants and their benefits,i paint and draw or make stained glass......lots really,i like being creative
.....Y'know,in the old days i would've said 'i watch TV'
SO glad i knocked that habit on the head!!

Wow, you definitely have a different life than most. It's pretty cool though, being mostly self sufficient. I applaud that.

It's allot more interesting than my life.

well, I dont have TV ... so, you get the point

not in my room at least, actually the TV is the computer monitor too, but I dont have cable and the signal is bad, so I dont watch it ...

"have a life?"
2nd line

ATS is for me just a place to give my crazy side some times a underrun. And sometimes I think, here are all insane.

Hey. Im 28 living in the Netherlands down south(LIMBURG)

When im not on ATS im doing:

Playing PS3 games like Gran Turismo 5, Brian challenge, guitar hero, Metal gear solid etc..

Watching tv by what i downloaded on the computer. Two and a half men, family guy Dexter, Ancient Aliens etc.

Going swimming with my son 10years old at various swimming pools.

Going Skateboarding with my son, our progress is equally for now(we just started) I couldn't do a kickflip, pop shuv-it and 180's before. I all learnt i together with my son. I must say something i learn quicker now then i was a teen boy myself. I also just recently learnt how to do a back and front flip in the swimming pool. You now what the answer is, play with your kids, in your free time.

I go go karting with and without my son.
This is my passion. Its like classical music when your up to speed and lapping lap after lap consistently.

I watch movie's in theatres .
Liking the 3d.

Worry about my own future and of my son's.
3days ago lost my job after 4years.
NOT LIKING TO LOOK IN THE FUTURE(HARD TIMES AHEAD)

When online I visit other forums or look at cars for sale, FB and play some real dodgy little games like tetris and classic Mario.

When offline, try to eat healthy, go to the gym, work and do my best to pretend I wouldnt rather be sitting on the couch online.

I love to sport when i'm not behind my computer

Hello everyone! I am almost 25 yrs old and a female, I have a 2 year old daughter that keeps me pretty busy. I work as a medical records clerk, When Im not on ATS Im at work, and if Im not working I am probably cleaning my house, doing laundry, keeping my hyper energetic 2 year old entertained with my somewhat beautiful vocals LOL!! She loves it when I sing to her, we dance and act like fools. I love to go to the beach since I do live in Florida but since Ive been so busy here lately I havent been able to go. I love to read, and research ats topics, i love debating as long as it stays respectful, I love to watch movies and documentries. I love to have cook outs and hang with my family. I have a fiance and we have been together for 6 years he is more of a skeptic so we can talk for hours about anything with no judgement, and I love animals mostly cats. I love to shop when I have extra money which hasnt been lately........ I am into astrology and would love to buy a telescope so I can look at the night sky better. I also use tarot cards and do readings on my friends and family members.I am very spirtitual and believe in karma. I would love to travel, my fiance and I have always talked about renting an RV and going across country camping out in the desert (around area 51, and in the town of Dulce! Driving through Los Almos and Racheal Navada and having lunch at the LIL Alien Inn, taking a picture by the extrateristal HWY sign, camping out in the red wood forest in california and then finally putting my feet into the Pacific Ocean. I would also like to go to Paris, France and Matchu Pichu, Peru which is said to be the most spiritual place on Earth. Thats me in a nutshell! LOL Nice to finally have some background on you guys!

Well I am 28, never been married, no kids and currently single no pets altho i really want a dog but my landlord wont let me get one

Aquarian, enjoy painting and drawing, mainly portraits for family members and friends as presents or scenic irish mythical landscapes, i really have to make more time to paint. I also like antiques and love going to auctions and carboot sales looking for hidden treasure, ive been interested in antiques from the age of around 11 so i do have a good eye.

Also a wee bit of a trekkie, and love stargate too

Jeez i am sooo boring, better add in that i also enjoy random nights out with the girlies listening to live rock bands or accoustic sessions oh and i have travelled quite abit, spent some time living in the US, Canada and Belgium in my early 20's, hopefully i will get away somewhere again.

Hmm, perhaps I should re-evaluate my living conditions...
