I desperately need a bit of friendly advice here. I'm thinking I need a hobby (well aside from the Wilson bros obsession ) or something exciting to do before I die of boredom this summer!
My summer holiday from university started about three weeks ago and goes until next March and I'm at a complete loss as to what I'm going to do with myself during this time. I got so bored last year my brain nearly strangled itself with disgust at my lack of initiative and complete inability to find anything interesting and worthwhile to do. Not a pleasant feeling, I tell you. So, this summer, I've vowed not to let it go that far.
The problem is, the lack of things to do is even greater this year! I've just quit my part time job (the wages are so bad I was practically paying them) and dumped my boyfriend (he was about as exciting as watching paint dry), so all this time which I would ordinarily spend at work or with the ex has suddenly been freed up. Considering that there's only so much time I can spend having coffee with my mates, I predict that I'll be doing much thumb-twiddling in the next few months. Not a pretty prospect I assure you.
Obviously I need a new job, which shall be done as soon as humanly possible, and I plan to go away on holiday, but as I'm a poor student I can't afford more than a few days (especially as now unemployed, d'oh). So the question is, does anyone have any ideas of what I can do with the rest of my time?
Although finding a cure for all notifiable diseases would be ideal, I'm just not sure that the treatment of a good perve at a Wilson for five minutes a day would work on everyone.
I'm thinking along the lines of an interesting project, but I have no clue where to start or what it could be! I'm also not adverse to joining clubs and playing sport, but I'm really trying to think of something a little further outside the square. Anything, really, that will distract me from this horrible feeling of waiting. It feels as though that's all I'm doing, waiting for the holidays to end so I can get back to uni and finish the bugger off!
Any suggestions would be appreciated, even if it's just "shut up and stop complaining, I wish I had four months holiday", LOL.
Thanks all for listening! (Yikes, this turned out way longer than I aniticipated)
