Hi myLotters! This is the first time in years that I have some free time in my schedule and I thought it would be great. Instead, I find myself bored out of my mind. I am so tired of watching movies/surfing the net/playing xbox. What do you do in your spare time? Keep in mind that my spare time is usually in the evening/night so it has tome be something I can do at home, and I am broke, so anything that costs money is out of the question. I like to either do things by myself or with my bf, so going out with my friends isn't something I like to do often. How do you keep busy? Do you sit back with a book? Do you play any instrument? Let me know what you do to occupy your time. Thanks!

posting on MyLot certainly is enough activity to keep me busy when I'm not doing anything else. LOL

That's very true, but sometimes I like to do things that don't involve sitting at the computer since I spend so much time using it for work and school.

I am a college student and I have a part time job. It is not that hard. Also, I look at random wikipedia entries.other wise work, school, reading manga and novels, watching cartoons, playing games on my psp...... would fill my day

i end up bored most days some how. i work either side of the day and after dropping my son off at school go work my horse. then go home, it's from lunch time till work i get a bit bored and after work depending on what's going on. you can only do so much house work, so i'll sit on the net stuffing around. have to be in the right mood to watch movies, and i've lost the reading bug at the moment. i do have a tafe course to get done, but not in the mood today yet. all falls back to my moods got to be in the right one to do things, like read, cross stitch, scrap booking etc. other wise it's not as good effort put in.

It is not that easy to keep yourself busy. The best method is watch your favorite television programs or spend valuable time out with friends. You will forget yourself when you get to spend time with your favorite friends. Also, you can select some books according to your interest and spend the time in the world of books and imagination. Keep yourself to busy and you won't feel bored anymore.

In my spare time I like to watch movies, write poetry,read a good book, one that you don't want to put down or surf the internet and spend time on mylot. Maybe you need to come up with a hobby. Is there something you like to do or make. See with me during the winter months I love to bake, during the spring I love to garden. During the summer I love to hang out in the sun and enjoy the beautiful weather with a great drink and book. During the fall I love to watch the new shows on TV. Then I set up a schedule of what days my favorite shows are on. The days I don't watch TV I plan other activities such as reading, writing or watching movies on lifetime channel. They have some really good movies on that channel.
