PART – 2 CUE CARD
Childhood hobby
– What it was
– How you developed this hobby
– Why you liked doing this
SAMPLE ANSWER
In different stages of childhood and teenage time, different things attracted me and some of the hobbies I had then are no longer present in me. One such hobby of my childhood was collecting stamps. I was a student of grade 4 when I first found that interesting hobby. I noticed one of my classmates had a good collection of stamps and they were cataloged based on country in his stamp book.
The idea of collecting stamp impressed me and I thought to start collecting the stamps as well. When I start collecting stamps I had no particular reason for doing so but the idea of collecting stamps and having a good collection seemed an appealing idea to me. But later I found that philately is a good hobby that helped us in knowing many different cultures, persons, occasions and custom of our country and foreign countries as well.
For instance, after I found a stamp of USA that had the Statue of Liberty printed on it, I asked my teacher about it and he explained the details information of it. In another occasion I came to know about Alfred Nobel, Marie Curie, Abraham Lincoln, Vasco da Gama etc. from the stamps I had. Some stamps also have many historical events or cultural events printed on them and I learned about them as well.

Some off the stamps were from countries that I never knew about and thus the stamp collection habit helped me extending my knowledge. Apart from that, I found that children who collect stamps have common interests and thus become close to other. One such friend of mine was David whom I would have never met unless I had this hobby in my childhood. In my childhood I liked this hobby mostly from pure passion & excitement and the opportunity to know about different events, famous persons and events of history.
I am not exactly sure how I abandoned this hobby later when I grew up but in my best guess that would be because of my involvement in other stuffs, interest in other things and business in school and study. I remember I had the stamp collecting hobby till I was in grade 8 and later on I got busy in my study, grown interest in computer technology, start playing outdoor games and developed the habit of reading story books and novels. The stamp book I had in my school has been kept in a safe place by my mother and who knows someday I will give it to my son/daughter and s/he would start collecting more stamps.
