What To Do When You Feel Bored?

[jrnievas]

Oftentimes, I just feel bored. I just want to know your suggestions.

 

What are the things that you do when you feel bored?

 

Maybe, your answers will also help me to kill boredomness 😆😅

 

Thank you brothers and sisters ..

I play word games on my phone, I'm totally addicted! 😅

Well we have brothers and sisters from all around the world. We try to get to know each other and we update each other, sometimes daily. 
 

And there’s an RSS bot that automatically posts new things from jw.org so we’re always up to date. And now, we also have a Daily Text telegram channel where you can read the text each day and also leave a comment if you like.

 

oh and the group chat also has 24/7 audio chat available for when anyone wants to speak to each other

Are you sure you want me to start going down this rabbit hole:
(inhaling before what will possibly be a really long post)
So when I'm bored I:
paint a painting, and look at different sources to get the feel of a new style

work on that website that I've been putting on the side, like 50million times,

work on a short story or one of the novels I've been working on,

help my husband with one of his stories,

do research on a research project and try to look deeper on it (like the last days, or the king of the north vs king of the south)

go on this forum and make new threads

bake something, maybe try out a new relationship

exercise, and sometimes learn a new dance

make a playlist on spotify or youtube based on particular theme

make some computer art on illustrator of photoshop (if you don't have either you can find Gimp and Inkscape for free, but they can be more difficult to learn)

learn some more spanish on duolingo or maybe pick up a new language

try to learn to knit...again

attempt to  create a musical composition on Bosca Ceoil

take a walk in a scenic area (should be allowed now in most places)
explore places on google maps
virtually attend a play or musical via youtube
read a book
get dressed up and take glamour selfies
do a spring cleaning
look up instructables and see what things I actually have the materials to make
go on the websites of different shops in my local area and do price comparisons
start writing a journal in a language I'm learning using google translate to fill in the blanks for words I don't understand
get some exfoliant, a peel off mask and a manicure kit and have an at home "spa day"
virtually explore mars with hd photos from Nasa
have some fun with this story generator
play a classic flash game via flashpoint

make some new milkshake or smoothie
play some solitaire or free cell
catch up on the jw videos, and make sure I'm caught up on jw.org

make a visual diagram of things like prophecies,timelines in the Bible, etc.

learn something on Unity or game maker studio

work on my hand writing (essential for letter writing)

look for possible presentations from the Enjoy Life Forever book
take some stubs from vegetables used and look up how to possibly transpant them to plant my own

make a collage
get some t-shirt transfers and add a design to a t-shirt or a tote bag
make some home made cards for letter writing
look up how many letters of your name and the names of friends you can use in anagrams
write a hand written letter to pretty much all the friends whose home address you have

okay that's all I can think of...for now

I have no excuse to say I'm bored, ever.

I look at beautiful houses to get ideas for my house in Paradise

 

Get in the club in my signature 😂

Thanks Katty for that long list of things to do when I have a little time on my hands.

go on this forum and make new threads

So Br. JR, by the way I love your username. Sounds like Geneviève  (French) 

I liked to start new topics but feel anxious because of language barrier, not bright enough etc. So I started this topic. Crazy right?

 

 

So whenever an idea comes up and I don't feel so brave about starting a new topic, I'll simply put it into this 'incubator of ideas' and see if I can get some sign of interest from 'ANYONE OUT THERE'. Most times even I lose interest in the subject. Not interesting enough but mostly because I'm too lazy or have no energy to work on it. 

 

So would you like to add some tentative topics to that thread 'Want to start a thread but feeling anxious' that you having been thinking about. Then maybe some friend could come along and give your encouragement (give you some input, expand on the topic etc.

 

There's lot to do on this forum. Like maybe start a Tagalog club

5. Try adult coloring books

 

If you have plenty of spare time on your hands, consider using it creatively by coloring some pages.

Coloring pages are no longer just for kids. If you have not tried it yet, adult coloring offers many benefits. Some of these benefits are stress reduction, anxiety relief, creativity booster, and brain workout.
