I have mentioned about my last two hobbies in my previous post. Now its time to tell you all about my first hobby, that is to observe people, to know more about them, to collect as much information as possible about them. That's why my friends call me a "Living Database". The good part is, I never reveal this information to anyone, just because I feel its not the right thing to do. Then what do I do with all this information, nothing. That's why I call it a hobby. We humans are quick learners and have a good grasping power. We easily remember things that we are interested in. This word "interest" plays a major role in our day to day life. Without this we won't do anything, no matter how important the work is.
Our memory is divided into three sections. Interesting, Uninteresting and Mechanical. Out of these, the first priority goes to mechanical, things that we do daily, like walking, talking, running or any other activities that are a part of our daily lives, including sex, are stored in this section of memory. We don't have to remember anything for performing these daily activities. It comes naturally to us, automatically. I really like this word "automatically".
The second priority goes to "interesting" things. We easily remember interesting things. We don't have to make a note of all the interesting things to remember. Neither we have to stress our brain hard to recollect these things. I hate this word "stress", the word itself gives me so much of stress.
Finally at last we have our favorite category "uninteresting". No body wants to remember things that is of no interest to us, no matter how important that thing is. Uninteresting category acts like a recycle bin. The choice is ours whether we have to retain it or delete it. Now don't tell me that, my blog is uninteresting. Okay fine, I know you all wouldn't say that.
Our hobbies falls in the middle of the mechanical and the interesting categories. Hobbies are activities that we do out of our own interest with no particular reason or motive behind it. Yes, I know my hobbies are strange.
