I don't know if I have any REAL passions in life at the moment, but for now it seems to be all about the games/films/anime. I used to be really passionate about rugby, but because I wasn't one of the coachs sons friends, I always used to be on the sidelines and barely played any matches. So I guess that made me a bit sour about the whole thing. But whatever I've got my games to hold me over for the time being.

I feel honored.
Okay.
Cool, I guess.
If you're into that sort of thing.

How 'bout that global warming?
Pretty cool, no?
I believe it's bullshit. And pretty pretentious. Humans believe that they have an impact on the planet? The planet's have had much worse than us. We're just a bad case of fleas to it.
OK, you freaking win.
I win? And what's with the "freaking"?
yes, you win... an internet cookie

and the freaking is just because you win that much
Oh, why thank you, my good sir. You are very kind with your fake swearing.

What is your greatest passion? Can be anything, like passion for video games, writing, food, etc. Try to make serious responses. You can have a little joke, as long as you post the serious answer after.

Mine is playing music. I've played guitar for 2 years, have just started playing violin, and am willing to learn how to sing (I normally sing when I'm alone, and I think it's great fun). I realized how much I loved it around half a year ago, through my idol and source for inspiration, John 5 [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jps8fdhAHko]. I've always thought of becoming a musician, but I've always been unsure, but this man shows that it's possible with hard work and determination. It's my dream to be a professional musician, and to play on stage. Greatest thrill I know.
Without wishing to sound patronising, I've had a lot of experience playing gigs, writing music and things like that. If you want some advice, I'm happy to help.

My passions are the composing, performing, and producing of music. As well as a good source of extra cash, it's one of the most exhilerating experiences a person can have, playing a gig. In my opinion, anyway.

Another passion is literature. I love literature, both writing it and reading it. One of my favourite works is the infamous Paradise Lost, as well as Shakespeare's The Tempest and Orwell's 1984.

Oh, and obviously everything by Tolkien. The man was a veritable genius.
Thank you for the advice. I've played a gig once with a band (I'm not in it anymore, the guitarist is an ass when he doesn't get what he wants). We played a cover. It was awesome, just such a great thrill. All the attention on you. And I love showing off, so that's a bonus too.

I've always dreamt of making cash out of it. But everyone I know says that you can never rely on it too much unless you get awesome at it and get a steady employment (like playing in an orchestra). But I'm so passionate about it. I guess I can explore a few more years and see if I'll still be as passionate about it. But I love it right now, and it feels like it's what I'm able to do best.

And no worries, you don't seem to sound patronizing, why would you sound like that?

I have two: Creation and Destruction.

My favourite toys are Lego, and I love to write and play video games. Los videojuegos. I also know several languages, though not enough to speak fluently.

You don't get to have a tower in my book silly people. Let alone two.

Acting. Now stop laughing, I'm serious.
Who's laughing? Acting is awesome, and tons of fun to boot. The arts are an important part of our society for more than just entertainment. (I do include gaming in the arts)

I think my crowning acheivment in life was preparing a 5 paragraph essay
for my Grade 7 class about how Games were art. I used Braid as an example, and got a decent grade. Braid helped me pass midle school. Thats how great of a game it is.

I'm only sixteen so honestly I can't answer that question, but if I had to say I guess it is... Well, I guess it would be, and I'm only saying this because there's nothing else I feel particularly passionate about, but anyway, gaming. And other general geeky stuff.

Cool? Deffinetly not. Are you even aware of the full effects?

Anyway, I have passion for many things in life. For example, guitar playing, movies, comedy stand ups (Love em), music, art (sketching), biology... Loads of things.

My greatest ever passion? Man, this thread was just made for a dude like me!

My biggest passion is circus skills. Juggling, and whatnot, you know? Primarily I use the diabolo, but I'm also not too bad at devil sticks, clubs balls and knives. I can also pull off some poi and staff. I've been doing a varied number of circus skills for about 10 years now, been doing them since I was 8.
I hope to see you on Britains got talent one year, because it annoys them ^-^
