I just got curious because today I feel so bored. Although I have so many things to do in my office ( this might be the reason why I got bored, I don't know where to start), I just feel bored today! What I usually do in a boring day like this is to sleep but since I can't because I'm in the office, I am jus trying to gather every bit of positive energy I have for me to accomplish something today..I need to. How about you, what do you do in a terribly boring day? Thanks for sharing!

hi, if it is me, most likely i will just make fun of my colleague if it is a terrible boring days and you get stuck in the office. the best thing is to chit chat, and if it doesn't work then you will just make fun of them. haha. but the end of the day remember to apologise.

whenever I feel bored and I am here in the office, and no work should need to accomplish, I will definitely log in here in mylot and maximize the use of my computer. but if I am not in the mood, I will definitely watch movie in the internet or chat with my friends.. If I am at home, I will definitely read books, or do the household chores. but if I don't have any choice, I will probably sleep.

when im bored i looked for anything on the fridge to eat or cook. i open my music player or watch movie. usually im having headaches when im bored so i make myself do something. i would suggest you to buy some food and eat it while working. and put your favorite music on your player and listen to it.

Hi there. Yes, when I'm at home I love to cook just to keep me occupied..I also enjoyed eating though I am conscious about my health. These two are also great ways of killing boredom. Thanks for the post!

I walked around. Make an excuse to go to this building and that, then spend some time talking about the next activity with colleagues. If I would still be bored after this, go to the computer area and surf, or go to the canteen and eat and while eating, catch up on the latest news, locally and internationally. But this rarely happens, only when it is a declared holiday and I'm still at work, marooned because the rains are too strong.. I understand what you are feeling because , I too am swamped at times by the amount of work. It's up to my neck , I don't know which one to start first. What I do is to prepare a checklist and determine which one has the deadliest deadline, then I start from there. Cheers.

I sometimes sleep on boring days. Sometimes I read, watch t.v. or surf the web.

Among your past-times, I prefer sleeping--this refreshes and relaxes me to a new energy level. Thanks for the response!

I tend to get online more when I am really bored. I also like to read. Getting lost in a book is one of my favorite things to do. I also try to get my creative juices flowing. I might paint or write or do a little bit of scrapbooking. Seeing progress always makes me feel better.

I just went online and do all my stuff. It is enough to consume my boring day. And never really feel that bored. Because my time is well spent. And at the end of the day, I know i accomplish a lot online.

hi mjmlagat...sometimes if it's a really boring day, there's nothing you can do to shake it but wait it out. sometimes doing something different helps, or doing something that you like. but on an extreme rare day when i'm usually bored, nothing helps but going to sleep and wake up to a new day. hope you have an enjoyable day.

When you work sometimes it can get boring to do the same thing over and over again. Why don´t you try just mixing some stuff up,,,things that you normally do in the afternoon, do them in the morning, with just a change of things your day get get much better. If you´re at home well then,there are millions of things to do, besides your normal chores. Try calling a friend you haven´t heard from in a long time. Dosome exercise, watch a movie, or simply lie down and rest for a little while.

Yeah I know what you mean. I try to keep my energy up by listening to music that gets you up. But sometimes that doesn't work loland I do one of those nodding numbers. So I think as human beings if there is nothing to keep the mind stimulated and it is not something routine, we will do that. Sometimes I found striking a conversation with someone if they are bored too will help liven things so you can go back to work refreshed. I hope that make sense lol.
