Passing Time

Tuesday, 25 November 2014

As a student it is hard not to be bored. I know people always say "only boring people get bored". Totally not true, sometimes you just are bored, even though you have a million and one things piling up to do, that you just want to and have to put on the back burner sometimes. So here are a few things to do if you fall into either one of these criteria's:
1. Student
2. Girl
3. A person who is constantly bored.
To pass time during University can be difficult and I have found myself trying to pass time in more constructive ways as of late, but there are still some activities that are purely a waste of time.
1. Youtube Videos
Has and will always be one of my favourite past times. I spend every morning, brushing my teeth, in the shower, doing my make up watching Youtube videos. When I am home and procrastinating straight to Youtube. Any genre that your heart desires.
My favourite youtubers are probably Clothesencounters, her quality of videos are amazing. Dtrix for when I just want to listen to people talk absolute rubbish, Megan Batoon for her dance videos and pun videos, and so many more. You have no idea how much time this can waste, but also be so satisfying.

2. Netflix 
Like every other individual in the western world. There is nothing better than sitting there and letting Dexter run through the entire series, sitting in bed and not moving an inch. I have spent one too many Fridays in bed doing this. Forgive me University results.

3. Speaking to your housemates/course mates for hours
Time just goes.. when you are speaking to your friends about absolutely nothing. It just goes. It isn't anymore productive than either of the top two, but at least it gets you out of your stuffy room.

4. Actually finding a hobby
A recent "hobby" I've picked up is gyming, I used to absolutely detest the smell, the look and the atmosphere of the gym, actually it is a nice place to get away. On days where you've spent all day lounging on the coach, or the entire day working in the library, it is a good getaway. A hobby can be absolutely anything, even making keyrings, if that is what your heart desires. If nothing actually interests you that much, constantly try something new. That will take up time in itself, but in a productive manner.

5. Actually work
This will past time quicker than anything else will. Sure it will bore you, but if you really want to pass time, THIS. Follow this rule. Because once you're done you will feel less bored doing what you actually want to do (e.g. laying in bed, that becomes exciting)

6 more months until the end. I am going to bask in the last "passing of time" and being bored before the real world is upon me.
