Quick Overview
What was your favorite pastime as a child?
Collecting basketball cards. No idea why. I juat kinda liked the cards. I didn't even get that into the sport itself lmao.
I had a thing for Pokémon cards, had a huge collection of them. Until someone stole all my cards at school, no idea who took them, never found them till today. And I eventually gave up on Pokémon.
Damn man that sucks! I used to looove pokemon too! I lost my cards though
Sucks man, anyway I drifted quite away from pokemon.
Yeah same here, sadly. What did you move to as a hobby after?
Looking at the sky.. no idea why
Different things at different ages I guess. When I was slightly older, I loved collecting trading cards as well, the one I was interested in the most being Match Attax which was football cards (soccer). At a slightly younger age, I was a huge fan of little model cars that I played a lot with.
Not being in pain for no reason
playing with Barbie dolls and baby dolls.
When I was little, my sister, best friend and I did acrobats in our friend's backyard as well as putting on plays and musicals that we created.
I loved playing video games, playing the Yu-Gi-Oh trading card game (even though I was never good at it lol), and watching anime/cartoons with my cousin/sister and best friend. I also liked live action roleplaying too, which I still do every once in a while.
Some of my favourite pastimes from my childhood would be collecting pogs, not sure how many people remember those but they were quite popular.
Another was hanging out with my friends until it started to get dark, the street lights coming on was our curfew.

I grew up on acreage so I was outside a lot. We also had many farms around us & stray cats would wander into our own barn. Some just passed through, some stayed long enough to let you feed them but not touch, then some stayed & let you pet & cuddle. I wish we knew about TNR back then!
I had a wonderful childhood. I remember how we used to wait for school to close and play with the neighbors' kids in the empty field close by.
During my childhood years, I usually play outdoors games and read novels.
