I'm bored of watching Simpsons Videos
I'm bored of watching Babylon 5 videos
I'm bored of watching Buffy videos
I'm bored of spending my time surfing the inernet
I'm bored of playing video games.
I want some excitement, but I don't know how to go about finding it.
I'm going paintballing soon. And it'll be damned good fun.
But knowing this forum, Ill be shot down in flames about how thats just 'escapism' and that I'll return to lead a miserable life.
Who ... cares? As long as I'm enjoying myself, most of you can go screw yourselves. Just don't bring me down with you.
As for the original topic : do something completely out of the ordinary, I don't know what. Doesn't need to have materialistic results, but let it ve an experience. Maybe even just visiting somewhere new or with good memories for you.
Just live life 'to the full'. You only get 85 years here :S
You're a girl, you have three things to keep you occupied.
A: I agree entirely with Goatboy on this subject
B: I thought IB had left the board?
C: I too am bored today.
You've blah blahd this defeatist crap before.
And it boils down to lethargy and cowardice.
"I dont want credit cards, I dont want to get into the debt trap". Everyone and their dog moans about how crap and dull life is. It's exactly what you make it mate, if it's dull and crap that's because the life you've chosen is just that.
Yes go native, work in a bar for money. Just do something instead of bleating about the futility of it all.
"Oh it's like, totally predictable where my life will end up".
Rubbish.
But you'll find a way to dismiss anything and everyone that offers suggestions because it's just less effort to sit back and whinge.
It takes no strength to go out and do something, whatever you want to do.
"But I dont know"
Then you're wasting your time.
You dont get that long, and to spend it moping about telling yourself it's all dull and dreary is the easy escape.
Sure, you sit and spend the next 50 years griping about the unbearable lightness of being and I'll zip past sticking two fingers up at Mr Dour, blaming life for lacking the balls to change it.

And do what? Go native? Drink? Do what everyone else does?

I don't see how change will help. Life is filled with monotony, and it's very hard to extract joy from anything. There is only escapism.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not about to throw myself off a cliff screaming "there is no meaning to it all", but life is far too long to be useful.

So dont for gods sake.
Go live on a Kibbutz or renounce your "stuff" and go wandering the planet.
You dont need hundreds of pounds, it costs less than £50 to get to Paris and then just see where you end up.
Stop whinging about how crap it is and do something to change it.
That goes for everyone else content to wallow in self-pity and cry instead of seizing control of their own lives and doing something.
You whiny little hippies
