Just buy World of Warcraft. Then... voila! Say goodbye to all your free time, forever.

Do you collect anything?
Do you grow anything?
Do you tinker with anything?

There are usually organizations built around those kinds of interests. The age range of participants might be a consideration, however.

Locally there's a Young Leadership Council that does projects for the city.

I don't collect anything. Don't grow anything. I've never really tinkered for anything other than necessity. Volunteering is a good idea on occasion.

Two words.
World Domination.

You want to know when your life has officially become pathetic? When you start asking strangers to suggest hobbies to you.

I'll know my life is officially pathetic when I start taking advice from a talking dinosaur named "Professor Science"

Take guitar lessons.

Aside from puppies and cute kids, it's the best babe magnet in the world.

Learn to cook. Or if you already cook, cook more often. If you need motivation watch Robert Rodriguez' '10 minute cooking school' special feature on the "Once upon a Time in Mexico" DVD. and I quote: "Not being able to cook is like not being able to fuck."

For the fundamentals, buy "How to Cook Everything" or "How to Cook Everything Vegetarian" by Mark Bittman, it covers the main ingredient groups (grains, meats, fruits, etc), recipe types (soups, breakfasts, pies, etc), and equipment.

I LOVE weekends because I can start they day with something awesome like a quiche or stuffed crepes, start some bread dough, go to a farmers market and supermarket/butcher for fresh ingredients, make a nice salad/sandwich for lunch (left over roast beef and sauerkraut, yum), do some errands (or bake a pie with fresh fruit), and finish the day with a nice oven roast (pork loin or beef rib roast with veggies), fresh bread and wine.

I do crack cocaine. It's like a MMO as after a while.

Origami! This book is immensely fascinating:

Origami Design Secrets: Mathematical Methods for an Ancient Art

Wow these are all great ideas. And I think I can incorporate Farhad's idea into any of these ideas.

Hit the Fleet Space Theater. Or hit Seaport Village. Or do the drive through Munchkinland up on Mt. Soledad.

The Fleet space theater is EXPENSIVE these days. Like $25 a ticket. I don't know if Munchkinland still exists

Wow, seriously? It used to be like $5-$7 when I went. And Seaport Village used to be free, they started charging for that too I heard.

Are you artistic? You mentioned music, but do you draw? Have you wanted to? And with the reading, have you ever wanted to explore a certain area, ie. Shakespeare, the 'Classics', etc. I know how you're feeling though, as I too just finished classes. Been catching up on some of the video games I've missed out on now that I got this new rig. But that too get's boring. Wish I knew what to tell you mang.

you could buy lowrider seeds and start growing. it also involves tinkering. crack cocaine is optional
