How Can You Be Bored?
stocksnap.io

Okay. So I have to vent for a moment.

Have you ever heard anyone say that they are bored?

No, I am not talking about kids. It is expected from children. But I am talking about adults. Yes, grown up people with full time jobs.

I cant help but to say it annoys me so much when someone tells me that they are bored. And here is why:

Seriously? Have you looked around? We live in this huge world. There is so much to do. There is so much to see. How on earth could anyone possibly be bored?

You can travel. You can go hiking. You can go swimming, skiing, fishing.

You can hang out with your friends. Go to dinner. See a movie. Have a dinner party.

Clean your house.

I mean come on, people. Don’t you have hobbies?

I could never get bored. I like to do way too many things. If anything, I don’t have enough time in a single day to get all the things done that I want to do.

I love to exercise or play with my dog. I have tons of hobbies like cooking, decorating and I do all kinds of Pinterest projects. I love anything related to arts and crafts.

I could go see my family.

Honestly, the list could go on forever. These are just things that I enjoy. That doesn’t include the things that have to be done on a regular basis like clean the house, do laundry, cook and clean.

So, I just don’t understand how anyone could ever say that they are bored. There is so much to do and so much to see.

So, next time that you are bored. Think twice before you say it.

Go outside. Look around. We live in a very beautiful world that truly has so much to offer.

Instead of saying that you are bored, what can you do that will strike you interest?

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
