You wanna know what age has to do with it? Being too
young to get out of school to work on your most prized
possestion outside of family and a few friends. Too
young to go get a job or have any form of income(some
of you know what I'm talking about, and you are of age
to get a job) to channel towards hobbies. Basicly too
young to do ANYTHING towards my hobbies. Cant get to
shows, no time, no ride, etc. Can't work on my car,
dont know what to do or how to do it and my dad works.
Stuff like that. Thats my problem with my hobbies.
