curing the boredom

Being stuck in the sticks is no good for my spirits. Work is thin on the ground and there's only so much you can do in the country with no transport -and 2 and a half months into my summer break i'm itching to get back to the city where I have friends, school and a life. So, here are a few ways i've been keeping myself distracted.

5. Be Productive
I know, yawn, it's not really rocket science. Clean something, spend some time enjoying the scenery, exercise.... it's pretty unoriginal but shock horror, it does work. And i'm the fittest i've been in a long time. So.. bonus.

4. Chew a pack of gum and see how far it can stretch
Me and my roomie did this one with a bag of easter bubble gum that came in a package her mom sent. It amused us for a good 45 minutes, and we ended up with a piece of gum about 6 foot in length.

3. Memorise new words and incorporate them into your everyday conversation
Urbandictionary.com is especially good for this. It's always good to extend your vocabulary (especially with the university year fast approaching) and there's nothing better than the feeling of elitism and superiority that comes from pretending to be clever.

2. Organise your m&ms
My boyfriend sent me a huge bag of Almond M&Ms from America. So what did I do? Organised them according to the colour spectrum of course!

1. Facebook stalk
Yes, this is completely unoriginal... but lets be honest, everyone enjoys creeping the profiles of those friends/enemies/exes you never actually talk to, and it can be strangely satisfying.

And then there are those other people who write stupid little lists about unimportant things... *cough*
Yeah, i'm bored. Bring on feburary 20, that's all I can say.

  1. Facebook stalk? well that explains how you're on my top 10 list of "facebook stalkers".

    Then again, most people on that list surprised me. People I thought who had a life (or weren't even that interested in me) showed up. Have you taken it?

    PS I want some almond M&Ms :(
