"Your happy site" - A hobby blog helping you find hobbies

There are not many blogs or sites which are about hobbies. I would be reviewing the blogs/sites which are helpful in finding or suggesting hobbies/pastimes, offering tips, ideas or resources.

Your happy site is a blog helping you find hobby. Site is under construction, but may be in future we can get good content at the blog. Site is from a young college student, from Ohio, USA.

There are some good posts at the moment.
For example I liked the post with the title "Why you need a hobby?":

Why You Need a Hobby?

When someone decides they need a hobby it is usually for one reason: theyre bored. Being bored is, besides being extremely boring, often not all that healthy for you. While Im not a doctor, I do believe that having nothing to do in your free time can lead to lower energy levels, and often depression. Just think about it, or on second thought, dont think about it! If your mind is not entertained one way or another, your thoughts tend to wander aimlessly. For some reason, many reasons, people tend to let their minds wonder into a pessimistic, or apathetic attitude / state; causing depression, or at least making you feel down in the dumps. Who in their right mind wants to feel down in the dumps? Shoot, who wants to be bored for that matter? So, eventually, many people come to the realization that they need something to occupy their free time.

Hobbies do not only prevent people from entering that "down in the dumps" state of mind though, they actually help you get into a better one, too. If you have a hobby which you really enjoy, practicing that hobby will make you feel better about yourself both while practicing it, and afterward. Hobbies allow for people to achieve a form of fulfillment; a personal form of fulfillment. While doing well at your job, and helping people are common things that make people feel about themselves, they are a form of social fulfillment, not personal fulfillment. Its great if you do what you do well, and even better if you help people in some way. However, you must give yourself time to please yourself. Chances are, without doing some things to please yourself, instead of your boss, or other people, you will never be completely happy. In fact, if you please your boss, and you help people, you deserve time to yourself to do what you want to do.

Having a hobby can be extremely rewarding. So far Ive explained how having a hobby can prevent depression, low energy levels, and boredom. Ive also briefly described how a hobby can make you feel better about yourself mentally. Thats not all hobbies have to offer though.
Depending on the hobby you choose, you will not only feel healthier and better about yourself. You can also acquire new skills through hobbies. These skills can often be applied to social matters. So, lets say that youve learned to play guitar. Now youve gained a skill that will allow you to entertain people, and meet / make new friends who share interest in music. Entertaining people, and making new friends are two very nice things to do indeed.
What about animal rescue? Do you think learning how to care for wounded animals could help you to better understand how to care for another injured person given an emergency? Maybe, maybe not; its just an example. So you see, having a hobby can be very valuable and rewarding in many different ways.
