What were your Two Main Hobbies During Teen Years?

[Radrook]

My two main hobbies were a fanatical dedication to bodybuilding based on the belief that I would look exactly like those musclebound dudes featured in the bodybuilding magazines, and later playing the guitar with the hopes of becoming as famous as the Beatles.

 

[ElCastor]

Fishing, largely pursued with my dad, and kites. Also liked to go on lengthy bike journeys with friends.

 

[timoc]

Girls and more girls.

 

[officerripley]

Reading, TV, and daydreaming.

 

[CinnamonSugar]

Reading and writing

 

[Murrmurr]

Baseball. I hoped to get on a MBL team, but I didn't get any further than the Triple-A league, and I only played two seasons at that level.

My other hobby was painting in oils and acrylics, and drawing with pen and ink and, occasionally, grease or chalk pastels.

Ham Radio. It was exciting to talk to people all over the world.
Note: This is very pre Internet

Dancing and staying alive !

 

[Capt Lightning]

Girls and motorbikes.

 

[horseless carriage]

Girls and more girls.

Me too, only mostly in my head. However on reflection, I probably had more girls in my arms than most. My hobby was Latin & Ballroom dancing. The second would have to be cycling. At the age of 14 I was knocked down on a crossing shattering my right leg. Recovery took a year in hospital for the bones and nerve ends to recover, then it was cycling and more cycling to get full muscle recovery.

I wanted a horse for the longest time.

About 12, I bought a skinny nag that had shipping fever( cough & runny nose).
With grand father's help & neighbor we got him better.

My cousin & I would take off on our horses,only to be seen much later.
This went on till I was old enough to drive,, sold the horse.

Didn't get my driver's license till I was in my 20s.

Playing in a band and Martial Arts.

 

[Pepper]

Make-up and The Beatles.

 

[RadishRose]

Didn't have any. Too busy dancing, singing and hanging with friends.

Well, maybe reading, playing cards and chess, but those weren't really hobbies.

Teens didn't last that long anyway.

 

[GoneFishin]

Partying and partying

 

[katlupe]

The beach, music, clothes and make-up........oh yeah, boys too

 

[Rossana]

Reading, going to the movies with friends and the theater to see plays with my grandmother. I loved art, architecture, and interior decoration. I spent a lot of time studying the different styles. I also had a fascination with archeology.

 

[IKE]

Till I went in the Army at 17 1/2 getting into trouble and chasing skirts occupied most of my time.

 

[CallMeKate]

Reading... and walking miles on end with my best friend every single day during summer and very often after school.

 

[Pinky]

Dancing, reading, badminton, making car & airplane models for/with my younger brother.

Edit: Oh, I just noticed the header mentioned two main hobbies. That would be dancing & model making.

 

[hollydolly]

Playing in a band and Martial Arts.

That was my daughter... that was her 2 main hobbies when she was a teen. She was the Bass player in the band.. and she wrote much of their music... Also she's a martial artist.. Started with Bujitsu then ultimately ended with Kick Boxing, and also became a judge..

Street racing in Manhattan?

Street racers gathered in the parking lot of Mitchell's hamburger joint on 7th Avenue in Brooklyn, then went out under the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway, or to Second Avenue to settle it. Lot's of money changed hands there.
