I'm a huge history buff, especially anything naval (I also love old ships of the line).

Reading (I'm a huge Bucowski fan), anything from the classics to obscure authors.

I have a rottweiler, and I love taking her on long walks.

I don't have cable, but I love The Office (saw the BBC version first, it's amazing), Curb Your Enthusiasm. Dry, subtle, witty comedy is the best.

I started becoming annoyed with myself recently that I didn't have a real hobby...like surfing, or playing the guitar (I played the guitar for years, then had to sell my Gibson SG for rent money, haven't purchased a new one since...I can't wait to again when I have the $), however I did just start riding my bike to get around town. I have a fixed gear, it's a blast!! No gears, no coasting, and if your "hardcore" (not me), then you don't even ride with a brake :shock:

Perhaps a good way to stress down during the waiting part of the B-school Saga!

Nice post -

Sports - Pretty much anything. Play rec volleyball, tennis, football.
TV - Watch mainly football and basketball (pro or college), MotoGP, Top Gear.
Weekends - usually involve a "brisk" ride on the sportbike, would love to get it to the track in the near future ($$$).
Reading/Movies - both of these have taken a hit, studying for the CFA Level 1 Exam in December.
Other - Travelling, Eating, the occasional computer game (fallout 3 is bringing back memories), preping the resume for grad school.
