We will all get bored at some point during our college career. Here are just a few of the things that I do when I am bored.

1. Drive on the back roads

Just blast music and roll the windows down if the weather is not too cold.

2. Go to steak and shake

Everyone loves a good steak burger and fries.

3. Go to Culver's

SIUE discount and some pretty good ice cream.

4. Chill at Gas-Donald's

I never fail to see someone I know plus I'm pretty sure they have the cheapest gas.

5. Walk around campus

Campus is huge and there's a lot of places to walk around.

6. Drive around campus but beware of the deer

Again, campus is huge.

7. Drive to neighboring towns

There are so many towns around and each town has their own quirks.

8. Go to St. Clair Square

Because who doesn't love a good mall trip.

9. Just go to Fairview Heights, they have plenty of stores

Again, who does not love to shop?

10. Go to Breese

Ski and Dairy King, need I say more?

11. Have a night in

You can watch movies or play games.

12. Go to the movies

Wherenberg does cheap movie tickets on Tuesday's and they are just a much better theater than AMC.

13. Sleep

Sleep is NOT for the weak and never has been. Sleep is a blessing. Do not take advantage of nap opportunities.

14. Do homework

I'm sure you have something that is due soon or just need to study a little bit more.

15. Go to St. Louis

SIUE is about 20-30 minutes from campus. There is so much to do around St. Louis. You can go to a Blues game if it is hockey season or even a Cardinals game if it is baseball season.

16. Go to St. Charles

It is about an hour away but there is so much to do. There is a mall, a nice Wherenberg movie theater and much more

These are just some of the things or places you can go while you are bored. Edwardsville is a pretty good-sized town and there are a lot of things to do in the surrounding areas.
