Re: Boredom
I m bored every single second of the day even if i m surrounded with the peepz i love. Its seems like a virus to me.
The only way to get rid of boredom is to keep oneself busy not only physcially but mentally too.
Re: Boredom
music:
You keep yourself mentally and physically busy and eventually the ATP runs out and you need a break --> you take a break --> the nothingness of life seeps in and you're reminded that without those "things that you do", you are basically a big pile of nothing
I mean it NEVER ends! People can say - go hand out with people and have fun. FINE. But then that ends too at some point, and you're back with dealing with the nothingness.
Go and do something with your life? I don't know what ELSE to do! I'm doing everything that I can do. All to keep myself distracted from this nothingness.
Life sucks.
Re: Boredom
I've accepted the fact that everyone can get bored at times. I tend to think about things consciously at times, and this helps in the boredom department. I have a habit of drifting. Or I will talk out loud and have a conversation with myself. I know, I am weird.
Re: Boredom
its ok to be bored sometimes.... i mean its not like one is bored 24/7!
just chill, think abt nothing and let urself be a boring person.... do lazy stuff like watching tv sprawled on da floor/couch, eat ice-cream, watch the rain drops (if its raining), watch people, observe them, learnnnn from them, watch the waves (if ur living near da ocean), listen to da waves, call ur loved ones, reply mails, upload pics, sleep, read, have a drink, in short do alllll da stuff that u've been wanting to do when u were damn busy.....
just enjoy the boredom!
Re: Boredom
Yes enjoy the boredome...I thought about it and I just realised I dont have the time to get bored. But what would I do if I got bored? Sleep sleep and more sleep!
Re: Boredom
PCG, as Senior Benedick in Shakespeare's 'Much Ado About Nothing' put it:
PCG (Prince), thou art sad; get thee a husband (wife), get thee a husband (wife): there is no staff more reverend than one tipped with horn.
Re: Boredom
God how vailay ARE you guys anyways!! I wish there were more hours to the day and u don't know how to spend precious time?
Re: Boredom
Well I do stuff in my free time. I guess its a state of mind. Gotta actually ENJOY what I'm doing in my spare time and not let troubling existential thoughts get in the way.
NEVER take an existential class.
Re: Boredom
- it's always good to have an interesting hobby , this way time doen't go waste. -get yrself a good company
- catch up some sleep
- go for long drive
- read a book
- write , in any way it's what i do .................... better than watching t.v or listening some music. life isn't beautiful............... it's the people that make it one.............
Re: Boredom
Boredom really is a state of mind.....I wish I was able to get out of it more often.

yeah that idea's good or do anything that you enjoy. like in my spare time i just doodle on a piece of paper n make some mendhi patterns..do something that doesnt require you to think lots cuz that way u'l be realli reluctant to do it. yh u can read a book, get stuck in the book thats anotha good idea....depends on what type of things you enjoy and like doing really...:)
Re: Boredom
-Try to do something creative ( anything which you think you have talent in )
-Call your best friend, or relative whose company you enjoy the most.
Try to read something related to your passion. Favourite field, personality, hobby, game.....etc.
Look around and see if your mom, dad or sibling is doing anything in which you might help them. IF they don't need help try to surprise them by doing something which they like.
Clean your room, re-arrange the setings if you feel that there can be some improvement done in your room.
-Offer prayers and talk to you Lord. No matter if the whole world is too busy to talk to you but your ultimate Lord would always give you time if you turn to HIm and would never disappoint you.:)
