At the moment I am fairly unsure how I will organize this list, but I do know that I want to include a wide variety of hobbies so we will see how this goes.

Note* some of these hobbies are not "hobbies" in the traditional sense, but rather activities that can be done in one's leisure time for pleasure. also note that not all of these hobbies are "inexpensive", "free", or "accessible" to all audiences. Some of these hobbies are quite expensive get over it.
