    Between work and taking having some attention deprived doggos I realized I'm not really keeping up with things on the PC as much as I want to. Also I've got a lot of things I want to write, I've pushed off hanging out with people, I've got more painting to do, and I've spent too much money on card games to really give up now.

    So what have you put off?

    Alternatively, what don't you have time for, and hope it stays that way?
     
    Sleeping. I work. I play. I sleep. But usually I only have time for two of those things and all work and no play... well, let's just say I wish there were more hours in the day or that I was rich and didn't have to work.

    Video games. I didn't start trying out much other games besides Pokemon for a long while, and now I felt like I missed out a lot of stuff. Then again, some games like RPGs took a while for me to finish haha. I guess also would like more time to bingewatch more television shows I hear good things about.

    I'm right there with you, I wish I had time to play more video games and binge watch TV shows. Adulting sucks sometimes!
     
    making plushie videos for my youtube channel.
     
    Everything ;___________; I work such long hours nowadays, I hardly have any fun free time. Most of my free time is spent doing adulty things like making dinner and doing chores.

    I wish I had more time to write, spend more time on my cosplays (although I'm trying to better manage my time with this), FINISH A VIDEO GAME, learning new topics just for fun, and reading. Once work slows down (whenever that will be >_>) I should be able to handle more of this stuff again.
     
    Watching anime. I can make the time for the one episode a week that comes out for the two anime I watch seasonally, but I haven't sat down and watched thirteen-twenty episodes of something new in a very long time because of damn school, now life.
     
    Ok, I only read this as "What don't you have time for" and the voice in my head said "other people's problems."

    I haven't been able to sit down and read a book in God knows how long. I miss it. I don't have time to get in touch with my artsy side (which has laid vacant since birth) but would love to at least attempt everything.
    I'd also like to cook more, but that takes money and time.
     
    I want to pick up guitar but have yet to find the time to sit down and do more than literally pick one up (Ive received one as a gift from a former friend)

    One of these days I will. When I have the time and probably money as well to hire a teacher.

    Haha, that's the other thing that I forgot I wanted to do. My family received a teeny tiny baby guitar that was perfect for my warms. I've only learned 3 chords but want to be able to play one of my favorite acoustic songs at some point.

    Good luck!
     
    Learning a language fluently!!
    Vast amounts of languages were surrounded by me since I was young, but I never really got to pick up any of them because there were too many to handle for a lil kid :/
    Nowadays, being bilingual is very helpful so I regret never learning a language fluently

    Its just I'll only learn small portions of it at a time with my schedule and then forget those small parts as I learn new ones, just making a never ending cycle;-;
     
    I don't really work or anything. However, I do a lot of routine-based things that make it seem like a lot of work. One of the things I often put off is drawing. I've gotten tired of it because I'm not really as good as I want to be. I find it hard to learn how to draw as well. So, I guess you could say I sort of gave up on it? Still, it's something I wish I had time for though. :c
     
    A puppy! I've been wanting to get a puppy for a while now, but the timing just doesn't really work out. I don't want to be the kind of person who just gets a puppy on a whim without thinking about how much time and care should go into raising it.

    A breeder I contacted in Seattle is having a litter by the end of Fall, and I've been trying to convince myself it's as good of a time as any, since there will be a Winter break for me to give my undivided attention to it, but it's really not that long of a break and I don't think it will be enough. Realistically, I think the beginning of next summer would be the best time, but damnit, part of me just really doesn't want to wait anymore. :P
     
    Drawing, getting a pet bird, and learning the violin/harp/potentially guitar. All things I really wanna do but probably won't be able to because of my upcoming school year. =[ Also vacations, though we don't have the time or the money for any. booo.
     
    i'm a bass guitarist who never has time to practice my instrument and it sucks like hell. i used to have time to practice almost every day but now someone is generally in the house (my family are generally busy and i don't wanna distract) so i rarely get the chance to practice. i miss it so much, such a brilliant stress relief and probably my only real talent.
     
    Writing . . . But that's probably because I don't have much motivation x3
