7 Things To Do When You're Bored

Sometimes, we all have those days, when there is "nothing to do", and you just want to figure something out. So I thought I'd share my 7 most favourite things to do when I'm bored out of my mind.
1. Read a classic
The classics became great for a reason, and I have personally read quite a few of them. Reading a classic novel will make good use of your time, and besides, telling people you have read one of the greater novels of all time, is usually quite impressive and it makes you seem more cultured. Personally, I recommend The Three Musketeers, Don Quixote or Gulliver's Travels, but if none of those sound interesting, fear not. There are far more great novels out there than just those 3!

2. Clean your closet
For me, as a person that owns a lot of clothes, finding what I want to wear is quite the mission, and often leaves my wardrobe in quite the state of an intense mess. Cleaning your closet will not only make time pass, but it will also make it easier the next time you need something special from your wardrobe.

3. Explore new music
Have you ever made good use of the Discover playlist on Spotify? If you haven't it's a great way to find new bands and songs based on your style, and you can ask your friends what they listen to, or find new music through Google searches. As far as I'm concerned, you can never have too much great music to listen to, and exploring new music can be a very fun experience.

4. Bake
There is nothing as charming as home made cookies, pasterys or cake. The act of baking is perfect for passing time, because you can choose if you want to spend 20 minutes or several hours in the kitchen. Besides, it's very convinient to have some already baked cookies when you have people over!

5. Go out
Speaking of people, remember to spend time with your friends. Or make new ones. Going out, either with old friends or with newfound acquaintances is always an interesting experience, and the best memories are often made with other people. You can never have too many acquaintances, social networks are increadibly important.

6. Try something new
Has it been a while since you did anyhing new? We all need something fresh in our lives from time to time, and when you get bored, it's the perfect opportunity to do something new. It doesn't have to be something big, like going skydiving, you can visit a part of your hometown that you rarely go to, go to a new restaurant or a coffee shop that you've never been to before. Be as adventurous as you want to!

7. Cook something exiting for dinner
Are you one of the many people that tends to get stuck in the habits you create, making one in three meals spaghetti with meatballs? Perfect, because this is the perfect opportunity to break that habit. Sit down with your computer, go to one of the many sites where recepies are displayed and look for something exiting!
