Health Holiday BOREDOM

[WeetBixKid]

It used to be that during the day you could knock on a few doors & before you knew it a game of cricket was started, there were bike adventures or some other kind of mischief.

Now that I'm a boring adult surrounded by other boring adults there's nothing to do. Uni's over & I'm only working around 3 shifts a week.

So far I've thought of reading, fwapping, drinking, exercising, hitting golf balls, watching TV & making shitty threads on big footy. I have a few mates that don't work 9-5 but they're really only good to help me with the above activities (excluding fwapping but I have my suspicions on one). What else can I do to eat up the time?

1. Find mates.
2. Find water source.
3. ????
4. Profit.

Can't play too many games of cricket when my mates don't live too close to me, sucks

Don't take it for granted.

Once you work full time, you'll know.

I worked full time from 18 - 21, you're right it's extremely shit.

My housemate took the day off so going to check out some pool hunnies is a good suggestion. If only we had a baseball to lose then we could make a real day out of it.

I'm learning Spanish to stave off the boredom. Rosetta Stone. It's very expensive, if you want to pay.

Anybody else seeing Jamie Lee Curtis?

I feel your pain. Im on uni holidays and pretty much all my friends except 1 work full time. Absolutely nothing to do. My brother even moved away so I cant even have a kick of the footy or anything with him either.

That sucks, but kicking around a footy? Genius. Can't believe I didn't have that on the initial list.

Nice. If you're ever around the city let me know if you want to go for a kick.

When I was in Canberra I kept getting told to not call it the city.

I've lived here all my life & have never heard that, have always called it the city or civic.

Man, I dream of having "spare time" (TM)

Buy yourself a hammer, nick a few 2x4's and build something- anything really. Or start a project of some descript- I'm sure you've got some ideas that you've been bouncing around- now it the perfect (and possibly only) time in your life when you're not time-poor enough to do them!

Am gonna back up the full-time work sentiments. Uni holidays are severely underrated. Middle of November through to middle of February, sometimes start of March off is absolute bliss and even though I'm a teacher with six weeks coming off, I'm still battling the full-time blues.

I have always called it civic. Just like always called the shopping centre a Mall. Know what you mean holiday bordem is killing me.

 

[Rise_up_Stiffy]

Im a teacher, so I hang out with teacher mates. And a fair few of my mates are still at uni. And I'm about to move into my new house with a few mates. 2 more days of work and then 6 weeks of awesome!

What was your problem again?

Civic or the city is fine. It always gets me when people call the city "the mall", only belco, woden or tuggers (all yuck btw) should be known as the mall, which one depending on your local...

Yeah I guess I just call it Civic cause I basically go there to drink. Haven't heard anyone call the city the mall. The Mall to me is Belco which is the local, Woden is Woden and tuggers is the hyperdome but they are too far out of the way!

Wtf are you guys on about.

Heck yes!
and yeah calling civcivs the mall is a very rare trait thankfully. Also, belco is probs the best of the locals now that its got its azn on

As shocking as "The Mall" sounds (only acceptable when Belconnen is in the middle) I'd take it over civcivs

Yeah I don't think I could deal with that. Yeah and now the up grades are getting done although I did go through there the other day and it is still pretty terrible.
