Being Bored
One problem I’ve always had was keeping busy. I dislike doing nothing. When I’m bored I like to go outside and find something to do. I don’t like being inside watching TV. During the summer it’s easier to find something to do like go play hockey. But usually people don’t like the winter and stay inside and do nothing instead of going sledding or have a snowball fight. Go ice-skating with some friends and then have some hot chocolate and then go to the mall or hang out with more people and do other stuff.
I think people who do nothing a lot wont be has good as people that are busy and minding their own business. My friends sister use to stay home every day and night and do nothing and then when she got older she started to sneak out of the house and do other bad things. So her parents locked every door and screwed the windows shut. Also they lose a lot of trust from others and also from their parents.
Also people who don’t have anything to do are not as successful as people who always have something planned out. Because if you do more thing you’re able to meet new people and be more social which is good once you get into college and on into the working world. Also they will be socially awkward and not able to go out if all they do is sit inside.
I don’t get how people can do nothing all day. I would get so bored doing nothing and just sitting there. I can’t even watch TV for more than a hour or so. I think doing nothing all the time is bad because you’re not outside getting active and having fun. Like I can do whatever to keep busy as long as I’m doing something I will be fine and not as bored as doing nothing.
Having fun and being happy is great. It is way better then sitting there inside doing nothing, also it’s great to hang out with new people. Also play a sport or doing some activities after school. If you keep busy you will be a better and happier person instead of a sit at home grouch that wont even talk to new people or anything besides watch TV or play video games.
Sometimes I like to play video games but it’s at night or on stormy days when there’s really nothing to do and nowhere to go. Also I like to watch TV but it gets boring after a while cause there’s no shows on. I like going to friends house and hanging out there usually we go swimming or walk around. Sometimes we walk just for fun or to meet someone to make more plans. We also go to the playground and just hang out there and swing or something. There is so much to do its just about finding someone fun who you enjoy being with and just doing whatever.
