We all have those moments when you've been laying in bed or sitting on the couch for just too long. It begins to feel like your body is molded into the position you're in and your butt is beginning to fall asleep. Or maybe you finding yourself eating when you aren't even hungry. No worries though, we're all are guilty of that one. Whatever it is that you do when you're bored, not to worry, here is a list of 10 things to do when you can't think of anything else to do.

1. Write letters to friends and family

Since when did mailing letters become a lost art? Everyone enjoys getting hand-written mail between all those bills and unfriendly doctor appointment reminders. The ultimate cure for boredom is doing something you know will make another person smile.

2. Give your pet a makeover

Give your pet a major grooming session. Give them a bath, brush their hair, scrub those teeth and paint those nails! They may not enjoy it the whole time, but it is extremely satisfying.

3. Become a fitness guru

It may not last, but get yourself motivated to work out. Download fitness apps or do timed workouts while jamming to you're favorite motivational playlist. You may not decide to do it again the next day, but a little exercise never hurt anyone.

4. People watch

This is perhaps the creepiest pastime, but a personal favorite. Go observe others at a local coffee shop or park. Bring your laptop or a good book, and no one will ever know you're eavesdropping.

5. Make a new food

Go to the grocery store and buy a bunch of ingredients that could possibly go well together. Invite some friends over, mix them up, and taste your concoction.

6. Paint things with nail polish

This may sound odd, but glamorizing your phone case or keys with some glittery nail polish is always fun to do.

7. Take a really good selfie

Glam yourself up; make-up, hair, the whole thing...just for a selfie. There's no shame in taking a really nice looking selfie. Plus, you'll have a great new Instagram photo!

8. Color coordinate your closet

Organize your closet by color. This way, you can easily pick out items of clothing that go with one another!

9. Binge watch a new show

This one is for those who haven't been on the couch all day. Become obsessed with a new show and you won't have to worry about boredom for another second.

10. Make a visualization board

Cut out pictures, phrases, and articles you like from magazines and put them all together to create a creative masterpiece that will inspire you!

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
