What do you do with your free time?
I don't have that much free time, but when I do I like to read (often about physics) or watch movies. Hanging out with friends and doing sports are also things I do, but I don't really consider I'm doing that in my free time because they are really part of my routine.

Well, on Easter, I spent my free time exploring the relationship between rotational kinetic energy and angular momentum with my 18-month-old grandson.
[tex]KE_{rot}=\frac{1}{2}I \omega^2[/tex] [tex]H=I \omega[/tex] In other words, we spent the afternoon spinning all of his plastic Easter eggs (they stand up on their own as they naturally find a balance between rotational kinetic energy and angular momentum). |

I mix music (DJ) in my spare time. On my turntables, or recently, with Ableton Live on my PC. I can get lost for hours at a time, it's great fun and a fine excuse to continually dig through all my old records!
I enjoy riding my bike too. Off-road. Downhill preferably, and FAST! :) |

At the moment I read and post on PF with what little free time I currently possess.

What is this "free time" you people speak of?

I read a metric f-ton of novels. Around one a week during the school year and four a week during the summer. Over the Christmas break all my exams were done early and I had almost a full four weeks off. I was pounding through a novel a day on my kindle.
Other than that I watch hockey (prerequisite for being Canadian) and pretend to know what I'm doing while playing with electronics. Friday nights are when I go out and let off some steam, whether I want to or not. |

Work on my main project: seeking to invent optimum contraption using all the junk in my cellar and nothing else.

Do any monkeys need spanking?
That should kill an hour a day. |

I learn new skills such as magic, programming, solving puzzles, poems, learning new languages, reading some popular books etc. They are both enjoyable and useful. You kill your time but at the same time earn something that will last forever.
I also do small and big science projects and experiments. |
