I have a friend who is a really good pen-spinner. He started a pen-spinning club at his high school and was featured in several “videos” at this Universal Pen-spinning website. The point is that he spends a considerable amount of time on this talent. I realize that his hobbie is an unconventional one, so would it be prudent for him to put it on his college application that he is an avid pen-spinner?
<p>who? your friend? ;)</p>
<p>O.K., I'll bite. What in the world is a pen-spinner?</p>
<p>Someone who spins pens with his fingers (I think). I had a few friends who did this in elementary school. I tried it, but never really got the hang of it.</p>

<p>If he spends a considerable of time on it and started a club with regular meetings, there's no reason why he shouldn't put it in his college application. I think it's neat and I can do a few spins but I don't spend time on it, it's just something I use to keep my hands busy when I'm not taking notes.</p>
