When you're bored?

When you're bored, what do you do? Do you go for a drive in your car just to get out of the house? Do you play a game? Watch tv? Call a friend and chat? Go to sleep? Listen to music? Give me some ideas. I often find myself bored and don't know what to do when I am. Anything would help, thanks! :)

Go on the internet, watch tv, or sleep, are pretty much the things I do. Lately though I've been going on sites that pay you, it looks like your already doing that because you are in mylots.

All of the above are good ideas...Have you ever just sat in the stillness; the quiet and looked at the sky-daytime or nighttime-either one is awesome! Try some star-gazing with a telescope; you might develop a new hobby. If all else fails, you can bake some chocolate chip cookies and see how many you can fit into a bowl of chocolate ice-cream. No cheating and taking bites before they're in the bowl. LOL

How can you be bored? There are so many things I want to do, that I will never get to do before the clock runs out on life, that I will never have time to get bored. I would give you a list, but I don't think there is room here...lol The first thing you need to do is acquire more skills so that you have a broader field of activities to choose from. I have hundreds of activities and skills to choose from so that I can go from one to another.

I don't know, I just am. I mean yes, there are millions of things I want to do. I simply don't have the capability of doing them right now. Some of these things include rock climbing, sky diving/parachuting, deep sea diving, etc.. but I don't have the money.

When I'm bored, I usually just do something that I enjoy doing, or think of something that I enjoy, in order to keep me busy. I might watch a movie, read a book, call a friend, talk to my husband, play a game, or something like that. These are just some things that I might do, when I'm bored. I'm just glad that this doesn't really happen very often.

When I'm bored I do lots of stuff that entertain me such as watching some films that I know I'll never get tired of like Breakfast Club, 3 Ninjas, Lost Boys, License to Drive, The Goonies and Rudy. I also watch some shows on DVD such as Alf and Friends. I also play some video games. I do anything that give me a good laugh.

Yeah, the internet is a good option. But i'm always on the internet :( that's the reason I posted another discussion about searching for things on the internet right before I posted this one :) and you're lucky. There is no zoo anywhere around my house.

First I try to arrange to go to town with friends if it's not too late, then see if anythings good on tv and next is proably read my book. I love reading even if it's the same book again. A good book is a good book forever. I do lots of things when bored but mostly waste my time so have fun being bored. Happy mylotting, mylotters!

if at home, I am usually never bored. There is too much to do. Just for you, if you are bored, just log into myLot and you know what I mean. Going for car drive waste petrol and is aimless and there is a chance of accident when your boredom takes your attention from the road. Play a game? alone? Watch TV? possible if there is a show that interest you. Call a friend and chat? What if they were bored and bore you as well. haha Go to sleep? Only if you are sleepy. Listen to music? etc etc? I think just log in here at myLot, post discussions and earn some money instead. Cheers!

I do various things when I'm bored. Sometimes, If i wanted to fight the boredom, I'm looking for something to do. At most times, I read books or watch a movie or just playing in computer games. Sometimes, I hang out with friends, go shopping, or do household chores,etc. Oh, even listening to music make me bored, sometimes. Oh, pity me. However, If I was very bored to fight the boredom, I just doze off soundly in my bed. :)

I put music on my iPod, catch up on reading, hang out with friends, read the news, call a friend I haven't spoken with in a while, or just relax and watch some tv.I don't have much free time so I try to do as little as possible!

When I feel bored I usually stop my activities for a moment.To handle it I usually listening music,playing games or sleeping. Sleeping will help our brain keep it fresh.Bored is something natural, so you don't need to get stress with that.Keep enjoying your life when you're feel bored.
