Tips On Relieving Boredom

[TheSmiler]

Has anyone got any good tips on relieving boredom, heres the situation first off.

Currently at university but on summer break, started in may around the 15th and don't start back at university till September 15th. Quite a long wait, ive tried reading, learning a new instrument, playing on ps3 but after a while these have got boring.

Havent got a job at the moment ive tried applying but can't seem to get anywhere, even tried charity shops but got turned down due to lack of experience.

Has anyone goy any tips to help with boredom, might even help other people on here.

Hi there,

While you have this time view it as an opportunity. My personal choice would be to travel somewhere. . . . .anywhere. If funds are an issue take the bike and some camping gear around somewhere nice in the UK.

There will be very few times in your life where you will have the ability to just drop everything and piss-off. There will always be a job you can't leave, a house that needs paying for, children to look after etc etc etc. All lovely things, but if at present you have time free of them, make the most of it.

On a shit boring note, having been there, done it and put boob-shapes in the T-Shirt, I can advise that there is no such thing as 'too soon' when it comes to dissertations. Even if you only put in a little planning work now it's just a bit less to do at the time. I had two jobs when i was at uni and in my 3rd year the mixture of finals, dissertation, the jobs and general household responsibilities almost made me melt. I graduated years ago but i still regularly wish i'd started my dissertation sooner. . .i'm that boring

Once you start work after Uni there will be hardly any spare time, so make the most of it. Maybe try keeping fit going for runs etc?

+1 for wanking.

With enough dedication you could end up like a real-life Quagmire:

Get casual work picking up rubbish after music festivals.

People bus/train/hitch round the country doing this all summer, quite a little community and not a bad earner. Rock up at the festival office first thing in the morning on the last day and ask for a job. Usually a 4-5 day cleanup then head off to the next one.

No need to take camping gear, you'll find plenty on day 1. Likewise booze and drugs.

I agree Travel, travel, travel and if funds are an issue work, in a hostel or teaching english or whatever. There is plenty of work to be found when travelling. craigslist check int out.

I say to you what I say to my kids:

Bored? Tidy your room
Bored and tidied your room? Tidy my room
Bored and tidied my room? Wash my car

You're statistically in the top 15% most privileged humans on this planet and you're bored......have a word with yourself and do something useful. If you don't have enough imagination to work out what to do yourself then the future isn't looking too bright.

Oh yeah.......and my kids love me they do

Only boring people get bored.

If you are serious about your degree, read up on what you are going to be learning next year and the year after. Study it now so the courses are more than spoon feeding and get a better grade. Shouldn't take long.

Your degree (doesn''t matter what the subject) can be a starting point in life long learning rather than a timeserving box ticking exercise.

Or shoot make believe people on PS3

Volunteer somewhere if you are really struggling for something to do. Looks good on CV, helps you get experience and can help you find a paid job and if you've got nothing better to do does it matter that it's unpaid ? At least it gets you out the house for a bit.

or just go on www.stumbleupon.com, lost countless hours on there when I really should have been working.

Preach it! Those "three girls", you'll want to start thinking of them as Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Or in ten years time, you'll remember them as Could-Have, Would-Have, and Should-Have.

Thank you for the recommendations everyone really helping to relieve this boredom for the meanwhile at least.
For the volunteering idea, I have tried at local charity shops and they have turned me down they say I haven't got enough experience
(although I have worked in my brothers shop, who is a prick). Don't know what else to try.

The three possible girls that I could of been with from university I don't like them that much. One of them asked me out on facebook which sorry but every hole is a goal (some say) that one has a sumo wrestler guarding it. Another has moved back home to Newcastle, and it would never have got that far that fast. The other is nice but just like the first.

I have never been camping before so not sure if I would do that on my own straight away would have to get the gear anyway.
