Soooo much time for nothing!

So I suddenly realized recently that medical students actually have a lot of down-time to do... well, to do nothing, if they wanted. Some kids are out partying, others are doing research or getting a Masters in Public Health, but I've decided to use my down-time to do nothing. I suppose I could study more, but who really studies 8 hours a day? And really, who NEEDS to study 8 hours a day? If you studied 8 hours a day, you would basically have to make 100% on everything or else I would just assume you're an idiot because nobody should require that much time to understand stuff.

I really need a hobby. Suggestions, anyone? I've started watching Lost, which has been fruitful thus far (I just started season 3), but is quickly losing its appeal. I'm going to the gym more, but that only occupies an hour of my day and it's not the most enjoyable endeavor. I've thought about learning how to cook, but I can't bear the thought of driving to the grocery store more than once every other week and I'm pretty sure I would fail and waste a lot of food. I do have a large stack of books I want to read on my bookcase, but I read so much for school, they don't look appealing anymore. Oh, and I've tried the whole "knitting" thing many times in the past and that has never caught on.

It's times like this when I wish Tom were here. A boyfriend is pretty much the best hobby. I miss Dallas and my lifestyle there. It was so effortless and blissful.

Wow, I am in desperate need of a hobby.
