It might seem like an odd question but recently I've been looking for something new to do which doesn't involve a computer...but I can't think of anything which doesn't involve leaving the house or getting a group of people together :?

Girls, eat, make food(like cooking, not just microwaving something), normal people do what they enjoy, which could be using a computer, this doesn't really seem like the right place to get answers for this question the way you want lol.

Do you have a pool? If so, swim laps. Wake up every morning and workout(pushups, crunches, etc)
Maybe read a book on what you would like to do in the future. What would you like to do in the future?

Make a list of things you want to do before you die, even if they are bizarre things such as: do a backflip on the ground, learn to play and write songs on a guitar, ask out the girl of your dreams, etc. Just be sure to accomplish everything you possibly can before you get too old for them and run out of spare time. If you don't think you have any spare time now, imagine 10 years from now when you have a job and a family (if you want one) Be sure to do everything you possibly would want to do before it is too late. Take advantage of your spare time as the youth of this generation. (youth runs from 12-25 in my book; assuming your not 25 :XP: )

No, I don't have a pool since I live in Britian...
I tried workouts but didn't find it very rewarding...
I've spent most of my life thinking about the future. It's time to think about the present for a change...
12-25 leaves me 8 years of youth....

Working out is the most rewarding thing I do right now. You feel awesome when you're done, and you know it's good for you. Plus, you get buff if you keep at it. Well really, working out is really only worth it if you're going to do it regularly and keep at it anyway...

I love lifting, but I've had 2 shoulder surgeries in the last year so it sucks because you can only lift like 5's when getting back into it, that's like 2 months after surgery... You go from pushing yourself to having to barely do anything, so you don't even want to exercise because it's just depressing, it shouldn't be too long though until I'm good to go.

I get enough of it in pole vaulting... In the gym we were doing rope things and if you missed the rope he flipped a coin, if heads 100 V ups and if tails 50. That is reallllllly painful... And of course there are goofy pushups.

You could try building things, models and such?

Normal people mod Halo.

:p

Uhh, 'normal' people is an opinionated phrase, so it's a little difficult. For instance, one could consider normal people the ones that smoke marijuana and drink alcohol. If that's your definition, then that's your answer.

Most, 'normal' people that I know, hang out with friends outside of school.

In fact "normal people" doesn't know what to do so the follow the group, what everyone does but really, they just follow the society standarts...
However we are normal, we are just the new generation :XP:

Doesn't have to be lifting. I feel a lot better afterwards if I go running. I went on a 2 mile run today, and then at the end did 5 sets of "to failure" pullups (ran to a playground). I felt awesome for the rest of the day. Didn't need to do pullups, but I want to work my way up to 20.

Ever since i started CAD in high school, i have always liked the idea of imagining what u wanna see in the future and BUILD IT FOR FREE!!

As many of u can tell modeling stuff is what i really want to do with MY life, its like a new hobby of mine. Right now i attend college and majoring in (u guessed it) CAD (Computer Aided Drafting and Design). I even met my fiance in CAD class in high school :p

Modeling is fun stuff, even got my roomate to change majors from web diesign to cad, hes loves what he can do now. :D :D
