My very first post.

Time for a new stage in my life. A stage in which I explore new hobbies.  I find that in life we become  too comfortable with the same routine.  Same job, same activities, same relationships...etc.  Why not a change?  Here is my objective: I will explore a new hobby and completely commit myself to it for two months while blogging about my experience, any struggles I happen to face, time commitment, advice for anyone wanting to do that specific hobby, etc.  Why two months?  One month is too short, three months is too long.  Why am I doing this?  I'm bored.  Sure, my life has its little fun hiccups of excitement, but I simply just want to try something new, experience a new group of people, or perhaps acquire a new skill.  I might surprise myself, too.

So, with that being said, November 1st I start my first hobby.  This hobby is one that I've never actually tried.  One that I often make excuses about because I may be bad at it.  One that I think would be a good hobby and skill to possess when I get married and have a family.  Yes, that's right....COOKING.

So, I hope you will follow along with me on this journey.  I encourage everyone to try a new hobby.  I think it will make you a more wordly and well-rounded person =]

What is a hobby you would like to try?  What is stopping you?
