It's the middle of the semester, odds are you're more busy than bored 6 out of the 7 days of the week. You look forward to that one day where you don't have anything to do. If you're like me, that day has more hype than anything. You think about sleeping in and maybe ordering stuffed crust pizza, but it ends up being you trying to think of things to do. Here are 25 things to do when you are bored.

1. Explore downtown Plattsburgh

2. Clean your room with music blasting

3. Discover more artists

4. Alphabetize your music, book, and/or DVD collection

5. Go workout

6. Bake something from Pinterest

7. Start your homework for the week

8. If the weather permits, go for a walk/bike ride

9. Have a Disney movie marathon

10. Catch up on some new shows

11. Check Facebook for some local events

12. Build a terrarium

13. Read a thriller

14. Write fan fiction

15. Organize your closet

16. Update your LinkedIn profile (because if you're like me, you forget you even have a LinkedIn profile)

17. Plan an elaborate scavenger hunt based on correctly answering riddles

18. Have a spa day

19. Watch old YouTube videos

20. Make a bucket list

21. Check out some new, noteworthy apps

22. Browse for tattoo ideas

23. Or design your own tattoo

24. Make a short comic book

25. Read up on current events

Think of this list whenever you are bored. I definitely did a few of these over the weekend!

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together.

We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.
