This seems an interesting idea!

I'm Sean. I'm 18, go to college in Boston (just did a semester in Melbourne, Australia!), but home is Birmingham, AL. I guess I'll follow the format of a list of past times as well.

- I play Cello, but only as of about a year ago, before that, I played violin and piano for about 13 years

- I like programming, mostly lower-level stuff, but I'm interested in web development as well

- I try to learn math in my free time to get a head start on my classes

- Singing and acting are great, I was in my high school's musical theater department for all 4 years

- I like to read. I read Sci-Fi, psychology and sociology, and more recently the ASOIAF series. I'm also in the habit of reading self-improvement books (I'm a big fan of Cal Newport's work)

- I'm a big fan of the outdoors in general. Hiking, backpacking, geocaching... If it's outside, chances are I'm up for it

- I'm trying to gain weight / become more fit

- I would like to start writing, but I'm not sure where to start

I'm sure I'm missing tons of stuff, but this is what I could think of off the top of my head.

You've started already. Is there a particular genre you are interested in?

Force yourself to write by dropping in on hubski's periodic #todayswritingprompt writing prompts. Here's yesterday's. You'll meet other writers.
