Computer science- In addition to learning programming, I learn a lot about computers, such as how they work, the circuitry they use, their fabrication, the algorithms used for certain challenged, how operating systems manage tasks and so on.

Language learning- I have learned several languages completely on my own, including Spanish, French, Hebrew, and Toki Pona.

Raising chickens- I have raised backyard chickens, and was their primary care taker. I researched everything needed to take care of them, managed the constructing of their coop, their diet, free ranging time and so on.

Philosophy- I enjoy thinking about philosophical questions, reading about philosophy, having debates, and love anything to do with that field.

Crocheting- I made several different trinkets and stuffed animals out of crocheting

General learning- I am always learning and researching a topic, whether it be animation, engineering, linguistics, psychology, story telling, and electric circuitry, and many others.
