Answer 1

Tricking! Being about to do a Gainer full (one legged backflip with a 360 twist) sure beats the h**l out of having a 1.5 K/D Ratio on halo 3, its more impressive, healthier, and more challenging.

Answer 3

I just started Civil War reenacting this past January.  It's open to all ages.  I'm quite a bit older than you, but one of the corporals in my unit is 14 years old.  It would be historically accurate for someone your age to play a soldier.  

If you are in Texas, here's a website for reenactors in the area:

Radio controlled car is a good one. This hobby will allow you to race just like the experts without the risk of getting hurt should the vehicle get bumped or fly out of the control.

Many people start out with cars that are ready to race or run out of the box. For the more adventurous, they would rather buy car kits that they can assemble themselves.  

If you've seen an RC hobbyist hard at work on one of his car kits, you would note the image of a watchmaker hard at work on his instrument. Yeah, he has  just been bitten by a very infectious bug. Visit http://www.1st-rc-car.com if you like to know more

Answer 14

ok, I know this can be pricy, but sometimes you can find this stuff on clarence at the local craft stores, or better yet look on ebay, ioffer.com, esty.com, or craigslist.com

But you can try prestamped, prequilted cross stitch baby or lap quilts.

I normally get mine off of ebay, because there so much cheaper, then the local craft stores. I pay between $9.99-15.00 (& thats with the s&h too). Now, sometimes they come with the floss & sometimes the ydont. If they dont, the floss is pretty cheap at the craft stores, about 35-40 cents  a skien of floss at Micheals,& Hobby Lobby. Not too sure what is its a JoAnn's.

If you dont want ot start with soemthing so big, try a baby bib.

Now, there are 2 types of cross stitching, stamped, (what I do, the pattern is already there for you  to sew over it, when done, you can wash it out, & the pattern you sewed wil lstill be there, but the ink that you sewed over wont be.

Then, there is what they call counted cross stitch, that means the pattern is NOT there for you to sew over, you have to count the squares to sew, which make it so much harder to sew, plua, 1 wrong move & the whole pattern is messed up

Answer 15

try airsoft. if u want you can start with a gun like a jg m16 from airsoftgi.com, then modify it and upgrade it. if your friends join in it will be a lot more fun so you can hold skirmishes but just building it can be fun too, nothing like a realistic clone of a real gun to scare away the burglars! lol

Answer 19

Woodworking is a fabulous hobby. Go to a Woodworking

shop which also has hands-on lessons. What they teach

you to create is truly wonderful. In addition you learn to use all

sorts of tools and give you knowledge which for sure can come handy later in life.

You can learn to make a little box for pictures for your Mom,

Sister or Girlfriend or go as far as making the finest Furniture.

I wish you the same fun I had when taking some lessons with

my husband and lots of other guys.
