what do you do when you're bored?

when you've got nothing to do, no place to go.. no friends to call? when days are nothing but the same copy of a copy of a copy of the days you had? when everything is so familiar like you always do it day by day.. by day, by day.. you see the same face at school, at the park, at the cafe.. the same streets you walk, the same taste of coffee you sip (black coffee, no sugar.. ahh.. tough taste) when the sky is becoming paler and paler each time you look? when the blue sea is changing its color into.. (pause) what.. black maybe? (no offence.. haha) when you listen to your old old antique radio (with mosquitoes buzzing like bees on your wrinkled ears?) and the music gets cut off and on and off and on and so on and so on and so on and on and on?.. (crap! that's my favorite song right there?) when you look for food and found nothing but left overs of the other days dinner (yuck!).. over cookedpile of doughs and butter with flies flying around rejoicing for the blessing that their master fly fave them.. when you try to sleep yet you keep on thinking how to earn faster in mylot.com ( haha.. just joking) rather keep on thinking about the same old thoughts you have from the same old friends.. the same old memories. then ask your self... what did i do a second ago? haha.. after reading this.. you just donate a little time of your life to me.. thank you.. ^^ i'm just really bored in my life routine. maybe somethings should change.. what do you think?

Well first things first, thanks for the post. Also I really like the "after you have read this you have just donated a little of your time to me" That is really an interesting way of looking at it and I really like it. Well I am an internet surfer, that is what I do and I do it well spending sometimes hours of days that I am bored searching the web for interesting things. I am actually working on starting my first blog about things that I have found that are interesting. So far it is very short but hopefully I will be able to increase it faster and faster as people suggest things to me. I also started walking in my area. Not really for exercise as I don't power walk or anything like that, just a stroll, casual and nice. I take my camera with me, take a few shots, upload them, and that kills some time. Well thanks again for posting. :)

after reading your response.. well.. no offense but i think that the things you do for a day was boring.. BUT! you know you just open something in my mind.. maybe for me it was boring but i think the way you describe the things you do.. as you said its casual and nice.. your enjoying your life. i think it's only me who had a problem in getting bored easily.. the problem is.. i forgot to enjoy every single thing i was doing.. maybe i need to see things in a different way right now.. thank you so much for the response.

No problem. I agree I used to get bored a lot as well, and now that I think about it I was doing much more exciting things back then, but wasn't enjoying them near as much. See I think we helped each other lol. I let you catch on that you need to enjoy the small things, and you helped me understand that it doesn't matter how exciting the things I am doing are, as long as I am enjoying them.

Yeah, it is very easy to get stuck in a rut in this day. There are times where I just have to think what can I do that would be productive. There is always something, even though it might not be all that obvious at first glance. I just have to sit down and have myself do it. That way, the boredom fades and I have gotten something done. For instance, it could be something like deleting old e-mails that I no longer need. Perhaps I can reorganize by DVDs. Or maybe it does not have to be tedious. Maybe I can play a game, read a book, or watch something. I just have to find something to do and I am content.
