(Dancia - Board Games)
In this episode, I had the honour of having Dancia as my guest. They shared with me their interest in board games as their hobby.
Definition: Board games are tabletop games that typically use pieces. These pieces are moved or placed on a pre-marked board (playing surface) and often include elements of table, card, role-playing, and miniatures games as well. Many board games feature a competition between two or more players. To show a few examples: in checkers (British English name 'draughts'), a player wins by capturing all opposing pieces, while Eurogames often end with a calculation of final scores. Pandemic is a cooperative game where players all win or lose as a team, and peg solitaire is a puzzle for one person.Wikipedia contributors. (2024, May 14). Board game. In Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia. Retrieved 03:24, May 22, 2024, from https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Board_game&oldid=1223762690

(Connor - Oil Painting)
In this episode, I had the honour of having Connor as my guest. He shared with me his interest in oil painting as his hobby.
Definition: Oil painting is a painting method involving the procedure of painting with pigments with a medium of drying oil as the binder. It has been the most common technique for artistic painting on canvas, wood panel or copper for several centuries, spreading from Europe to the rest of the world. The advantages of oil for painting images include "greater flexibility, richer and denser colour, the use of layers, and a wider range from light to dark". But the process is slower, especially when one layer of paint needs to be allowed to dry before another is applied. Wikipedia contributors. (2024, February 13). Oil painting. In Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia. Retrieved 00:59, March 31, 2024, from https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Oil_painting&oldid=1207043039

(Kalilo - Song Writer)
In this episode, I had the honour of having Edward as my guest. He shared with me his interest in being song writer as his hobby.
Definition: A songwriter is a musician who professionally composes musical compositions or writes lyrics for songs, or both. The writer of the music for a song can be called a composer, although this term tends to be used mainly in the classical music genre and film scoring. A songwriter who mainly writes the lyrics for a song is referred to as a lyricist. The pressure from the music industry to produce popular hits means that song writing is often an activity for which the tasks are distributed among a number of people. For example, a songwriter who excels at writing lyrics might be paired with a songwriter with the task of creating original melodies. Pop songs may be composed by group members from the band or by staff writers – songwriters directly employed by music publishers. Some songwriters serve as their own music publishers, while others have external publishers. Wikipedia contributors. (2023, August 19). Songwriter. In Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia. Retrieved 03:23, August 22, 2023, from https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Songwriter&oldid=1171240587
