JUST sleep sometimes .....and I try my best to keep boredom away even I always cant make it. Do you like reading ? Like novels ? In summer holiday , I can spend one week on a long novel and it makes me cry and laugh . I think it is a really good way. OR do you like some soft like PS ? I like it , I have used my whole winter holliday in learning it .I could do nothing but stay in bed with my computer to edit pictures for a whole day at that time . Just because Im intrested in PS . OR Have a pet ! I want have a dog for a long time but my mother cannt stand dogs at home . I think if i have a dog , i'll never feel boring .I can play with it all the time ! lol ,exciting. SO there are so many ways , good luck to you.

I will go to the library to choose a book if boring,having a cup of coffee with me and enjoy the sunshine all the afternoon. If it is night like you,maybe it's the best choice for me to make a telephone call to my boyfriend,every time I hear the voice of my BF,I fell safe and happy,do you have a BF?You can try it,I hope it can help you@_@(if your BF do not mind) Sometimes,I cooking by myself and eat a whole bunch of food.Fine food can make you happy ,do you think so? Happy everyday@_@

Try new things like when I get really bore I go to Wal-Mart and pick up one of those craft things that I can build my own necklace or paint a picture. Just something simple not to hard that I can enjoy and it's different so I learn something new and I am not bore with it because I have never done it before. I find most of the time when I get bored it is because I have been doing the same things over and over and I just need something new! **Peace and Love get's you through everything in Life**

when i am totally bored, i go out, i go to the mall, i would love to go to the beach if there's a nearby beach. or i call up my friends and see who among them is available to meet up and have lunch or dinner or watch a movie, i am so bad that when i am bored, that is the time i pay more attention to friends i lost touch with due to my busy work schedule.

I will try as can as possible to sleep,save my energy, but if can't maybe i will listen to the up beat music and sing along. Sometimes, turn on the computer, playing some new games can make me excited and forget my bored feeling for a while. If i still get bored, i will call some old friends, ask them to hang out with me or just invite them to drop in my home accompany me.

Thing I do to release myself from boredom: *Read Books(Dang still got a whole lot of time unread) *Draw pictures(I can draw...so what? Everyone can right?) *Sleep *Eat *Do my online jobs *Read online articles *Read comics *Cook *Play computer games *Play badminton *Watch TV *Go out with my friends *Chat Well, there are so much things to do in life. I really don't have time for all. Or maybe I'm never bored. Try out some of the things I do maybe you'll find something to enjoy. So enjoy your time...It only comes once.

Geez, when I get bored I try to find anything that I can do. Sometimes I clean, sometimes I try to read, write, and right now I'm bored enough to try and do homework. Though I think I'm burnt out with homework. I try to play games also if I'm bored enough.

I can't stand boredom. I try to kill boredom by gardening or going for long walks.

ugh I was so bored today too. What I did to try to get over the boredom was lay down on the couch and read a book. It's not what I usually like to do but I had to do something to get over the boredom, and the book actually was pretty interesting to me.

I get on my computer, read a book, write, or clean my house when I am bored. I find that just keeping myself bust helps fight of any chacne of being bored.
