Everytime I walk past an Ikea I argue with myself on whether or not I should go in and look around :lol:

Ikea is a death trap though. I always end up leaving with something.

Oh my God yes. I walk out with a thousand nick nacks that I don't need... and the shop itself is a freakin' maze. Once you go in, it is so hard to get out. You have to do the entire shop round to get to the exit grrr.

I've never been in an IKea to be honest. I love decorating and have no more room in my bedroom at home for furnature (and there certainly wasn't room in my dorm room at school for more than what they provided) so maybe that's a good thing.

I knit. Everything. Blankets (my favourite - just finished one yesterday), sweaters, stuffed animals (won a shiny silver Random Contest trophey with a Grey Uni and a Rainbow Chia), face clothes, bath mats, purses, scarves, hats, mittens, flowers, shawls, socks, arm warmers. You name it, I've probably knit it. My school <i>used</i> to have an Extreme Knitters club (according to a guy talking at orientation last summer who said it as if having a knitting club meant the school offered every type of club imaginable). I'm currently working on a sweater with a poncho and another blanket lined up.

Yeah, I suppose knitting is an almost forgotten art nowadays... I used to knit, but I wasn't very good at it.

I enjoy cross stitch... yes.. I actually have a girly hobby, although it usually only happens once a year to make Christmas presents when I don't have much money... it's a personal gift. *shrugs*

I begun collecting unusual and toy cameras.

I have to say I'm quite impressed with how I've managed to create quite an arsenal in the span of a few months, but I really truly do love the looks I get whenever I go out with some oddball camera. Plus the photo quality and quirks with some of them are incredible.

I love to build computers. I love to know how they work, and make them work my way. I build them, take them apart, and fix them!

That is quite unusual, indeed. I've never before heard of such an absurd hobby in my life.

Hah, Charles Manson has a song called 'run for fun'

some of the lyrics go:

"My goodness, have you ever seen anybody who could run for fun?"

which made me think of it when I read your post :P

and "I Once knew a fat man, who was so mad at the woirld, he tried to eat it up"

which is just classic Charlie :D
