Doing Nothing Is My Favorite Thing To Do

And no, that does not make me lazy.

Doing Nothing Is My Favorite Thing To Do
Sydnie Newman

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).

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.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
