CHOOSING A HOBBY

It is important for teens to study. 35 It will help you to destress, provide you with

an outlet for creativity, distraction, and also give you something to look forward to.
There are many hobbies for you to try out. For example, you can pursue music as a
hobby in a number of ways. 36 You can then showcase your musical talents in school or
community bands and choirs.
Another hobby to consider is sports. You can either do indoor activities or outdoor
activities. Indoor activities include yoga, dance classes, and gym memberships. 37
Reading is another great hobby. There are many benefits to reading. Not only will it help you to
destress, reading will also keep you mentally-stimulated. This can slow the progress of
Alzheimer’s and dementia. 38 In recent years, the fantasy genre has become increasing
popular among teens.
Do you consider yourself a creative person? 39 You could also take up cooking,
baking, jewellery-making, car modelling or scrapbooking. If you have a dramatic flair, then you
should consider acting, singing or dancing in the theatre productions.
In this modern day and age, the technology available can give you unlimited options
for hobbies. 40 You could also use social networking sites, play video games and even build
robots and write computer programs.
In conclusion, there are many hobbies for you to choose from. Make sure you choose a
hobby that excites you. That way you will stick to it.
