I was a creative writing major in college, for a short time, anyway
I really enjoyed writing short story fiction. I approached it like an actor, getting into the character. Thinking of how they would react or feel in certain situations makes for realistic writing but ends up being too emotionally exhausting to tap into for long periods of time.
Playing music, I would write songs. I liked doing that. One of my other friends, ISTP 9w8, writes rap songs about his time in the Marines and is writing a set so he can do stand-up. His stuff is very dry. Steven Wright style delivery.
I think that T's in the Arts are overlooked but it does take a critical eye to self-edit and be good at whatever you decide to do.
Other hobbies? I'm really good at laying in bed, in front of the TV, doing nothing for an entire day. At least one of my days off is a Decompression Day. No picking up the phone. No talking. Just food, bathroom and smoke trips. I need that.
I enjoy cooking, trail riding, some video games, beach days, racquetball, billiards. I recently recharged the AC in my car and fixed a short in some wiring. Cars are something I haven't done a lot with so it's a newer "hobby" I guess. Overall, I don't do anything persistently enough to be called hobbies, but when they arise I take full advantage.
