I am a college student. I have two to three classes every day. I then, usually, have homework or need to study for my classes. I also love to work out, so I try to work out at least five times a week. I also have a job that I work about 15 hours a week. I love my social life. I love to hang out with my friends whether it is going to dinner, or checking out a cool new pop-up in Raleigh, or going downtown for a fun night out.
I love to keep busy and constantly doing things, but sometimes I want to just chill and relax.
There are lots of things I love to do, but doing nothing is one of my favorite things do. Just taking a day off from my life and lying in bed watching movies, or reading at a cool coffee shop, or chilling on the couch watching reruns of Sex and The City are some of my favorite "nothing" activities.
Even though doing nothing is not necessarily an activity, it is my favorite activity. When I have a busy week, I plan a couple hours over the weekend to just relax and not think about anything. This allows me to relax and unwind, something I wish I could do more often.
Everyone needs a break, including all my friends and roommates. Since we all like to relax every once in a while, it is especially fun to do nothing with my friends and roommates. Getting food to-go and eating it while watching movies with my roommates makes doing nothing ever more fun. It's always nice to unwind with others who are just as busy as you.
If you’ve never done nothing, I highly recommend it. It really is a luxury (to me at least).
