"Hobby Day" Movement -- more barkada bonding and experience
As 2018 neared its closing, I couldn't help but reflect on what happened throughout the year. I flipped through my journal, and no matter how many times I flipped, it was almost empty. Last year came and went fast, and I felt like I wasted it.
Now, it's 2019. "New Year New Beginnings", that's what they say. I paused. It's cliche but it's no less than true. I pondered hard, and after a few minutes of allowing the circuits of my brain to spark, an idea popped out -- "Hobby Day!", I murmured to myself.
...the more significant memories you build, the more memorable the year becomes
The Birth of Hobby Day
What makes a certain day, month or even year stand out? Simple. Memories rooted upon events. Hence, the more significant memories you build, the more memorable the year becomes. Hobby Day banks on this concept. It's a day allotted for me and my friends to do something together -- preferably things we haven't done before. In this way, we always have something to look forward to, and at the same time, collect 'treasurable' memories for 2019.
Since memories may eventually fade, we promised ourselves to document the events by either writing them in our own journals or blogging about them (or both whenever possible).
Hobby Day Movement
I hope that this will spark a movement among friends. It's effective in pulling ourselves away from the bed during weekends, and actually do things we normally just "wish to happen". This year, we want them to happen, and we will.
We don't need to spend that much just to have a meaningful bonding with friends, and in fact we were thankful to discover the beauty of Hobby Days in transforming us into more proactive individuals. Best of all, we are "growing" together as friends.
Here are the collection of our Hobby Days so far:
