I love your ideas! I just have a question. I only see my boyfriend on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights. I love your stargazing idea but, do you have any other ideas? We love watching movies and the foodnetwork.

I do all these things, and its possibly the reason I am never able to get bored!
I think this post and some of the comments on it show how ones attitude towards life is very important to how good life will be to you
I know some people who are quite simply not impressed by anything, its really sad…even if they are taken somewhere awesome like London or a museum or whatever, they just have no interest and would rather either play video games or go shopping for video games!! Theres nothing wrong with playing games of course, but I have come to understand that if you grow up on using only tv and video games as entertainment, you end up being bored of EVERYTHING, including the video games! And then the only way to stop your boredom is to buy more video games or tv stuff… You dont understand the fun of anything, and could be taken to something grand, magnificent and beautiful and be completely unimpressed. The other day I went to London for a comic Expo, and my housemate who is like this was only interested in comic book stores (which is great!) But when we visited the amazing British museum just down the road from the comic shop, well he just wanted to go back to the train station even though we still had like 3 hours left in a city that has a bazillion things to do in it!!!

What a Joke..The Only thing I agree with is the Sex part.. I live in NYC and let me tell you something…..You need to spend money to do something or you sit on the street like a BUM. The Only gardening you can do is grow pot, the outdoors is just concrete and homeless people trying to save money, concerts suck cause music today sucks, picnic are fun if you don’t mind getting stabbed by gang members, To much pollution to see stars at night, podcasts are free for a reason (they suck), If money is needed why volunteer when i can use that time to get a job, why swap my clothing for some dirty shit from another dirty ass, Journals are for retards who like to incriminate themselves, Fighting ans sex is the only way to keep fit these days otherwise pay to go to the Gym or for equipment….Also Nature sucks, ask anyone from Indonesia or New Orleans or Italy or China and they will agree along with many others.

Unlike the commenter before me, I think sex and concerts are the best suggestions! True sex can lead to children, obviously, that is why you need to use protection. I am pretty sure unsafe sex was not being promoted.

Also I believe the word free was used before concerts. I absolutely love going to concerts and meeting new people, sometimes meeting the musicians. Everyone comes together and it’s a very peaceful environment. : ]

I’d just like to point out that sex is free until somebody gets pregnant. Then it’s expensive.

my god… I became increasingly haunting as you continued to name fun alternatives, that I’d done them ALL! And i’m STILL bored… My god.. .what am i to do? I’ve LITERALLY done everything, and then some. I’ve even joined about 20 meetup groups. I’m simply a restless spirit. I suppose MONEY is the greatest thing and substitutes are the things that don’t matter.

My friends and I like to host themed parties where we hang out and play games. We’ve had a mustache party (we all had to draw them on or if you were capable of growing one out, go for it) We’re planning a blanket fort party in the near future. Everyone must be PJs. Everyone brings a snack and we hang out and play board games, cards, video games. It’s a great time.
