My (secretish) dream is to take up salsa/latin American dancing again.. Judge me, hahah.

Like there's the classic playing an instrument, i went back to guitar a month ago and it's super. You could do rock climbing, you can sign up for training a few times a week and have fun + get fit.. If you can afford a few trips to the snow try snowboarding (or skiing but I'm partial to snowboarding heh).

Cooking

Circus arts

Bug collecting

etc

Debating. Most rewarding thing I've done, ever. Have travelled the world for it - if you spend a lot of time learning from people much better than yourself, it's a very, very rewarding pastime.

Recording Soccer Videos usually, like skills and tricks and other stuff as well. Helps me relax.

Sometimes I just watch a few comedians like Russell Peters or Aziz Ansari.

Endure the pain of discipline now, or suffer the pain of regret later.

Not sure about 'cool', but I like writing poetry when I have the chance. Usually late at night.

Cool is a matter of perception and whatever makes you happy :p

I think sport can be very rewarding, especially if its just running around the block. Theres an art to slowly getting better and pushing on through the pain and stress, i find an almost deeply satisfying philosophical element to it (any of you surprised that this is comming from me?).

Could try: Martial arts, sports/gym/ LARP (bit geeky but looks fun, never done it, google swordcraft/learn a language/learn an instrument/juggling/learn practical skills (cooking, camping, etc). Also check out the book "500 things you should know", you can find it on any good book store website (or on google).

The real trick here is just to keep trying things...

One that I got into was speedcubing (solving Rubik's cube really fast). There are surprisingly a lot of information about this unique Hibbing.
Others you can try are juggling, chess and learning a new language (a good place to start for complete begineers is duolingo which is completely free)
