==List of hobbies==

Here is the list of the hobbies your Sim can take on. Most of those hobbies are related to a skill, meaning that having a high level in that skill will cause a Sim to gain interest in that hobby at a faster rate.

* Arts and Crafts (related to Creativity)
* Cuisine (related to Creativity)
* Film and Literature (related to no specific skill)
* Fitness (related to Body)
* Games (related to Logic)
* Music and Dance (related to Creativity)
* Nature (related to Cleaning)
* Science (related to Logic)
* Sports (related to Body)
* Tinkering (related to Mechanical)

===One True Hobby===

A Sim's One True Hobby is initially determined by their personality, but can be changed using the [[Insimenator]]'s ''Interests Adjustor''. You will be notified of the Sim's predestined hobby when they try an activity related to it for the first time (they will exclaim that it "was a lot of fun". The interest bar matching the hobby will then have a permanent glow in the hobbies panel. Traits matching a specific hobby are:

* Arts and Crafts: sloppy and nice
* Cuisine: lazy and neat
* Film and Literature: lazy and shy
* Fitness: outgoing and active
* Games: playful and grouchy
* Music and Dance: outgoing and serious
* Nature: sloppy and playful
* Science: serious and neat
* Sports: active and grouchy
* Tinkering: shy and nice

==Hobby-related interactions==

===Generic===

* "Talk about Hobby"
* "Read Section ..." on the newspaper
* "Share Hobby Tips"
* "Browse Web About Hobby"
* "Blog Tips About Hobby"
* "Instruct in Hobby"
* "Be in the Zone"

A Sim that is "in the zone" will glow white and their motives will decay much slower than normal.
