1,000 Things to do When You're Bored

1 - 20

• Follow your cat around for the day, secretly. Admit it, we all want to know what our cat does when we're not around. But do it secretly. Hide behind walls and chairs and peek on your cat.

• Do your hair and make up and get dressed up like your going somewhere fancy. Don't actually go anywhere.

• Answer questions on Yahoo Answers. Claim to be an expert in Fromology (the study of cheese).

• Invent an incredibly complex game. Convince your friends to play it with you next time you see them again. Make up the rules as you go along ~ that's what they get for not being around.

• Go on a Wikipedia Scavenger hunt. Start by looking up the first thing that comes to mind, then only click on other Wikipedia links.

• Make a fort in your living room out of couch cushions and blankets. Declare yourself president of a made-up secret society and only allow people in who can guess the password. Allow your cat to join ~ it knows the password, it just can't say it.

• Re-read a book. What's good once, is good a second time, especially if it kills a few hours.

• Clean your room. Of course you're not going to enjoy it. But it needs to be done. Just think about how good you'll feel when you can see the floor again.

• Make a pet rock. Make more pet rocks to be friends with your pet rock. When all your pet rock's friends are busy, comfort your pet rock. Allow your pet rock to join your secret society too.

• Paint something. Whatever comes to mind! It could be that weird cat that is always watching you through your window or even your pet rock!

• Write a story. Write a new story or update that one that's been sitting there for a few days.

• Play dress up with your cat. Pretend your a ninja on a secret mission with your cat.

• Put on a show. Have your pet rock and pet rock's friends watch it! Your cat can use the stage light that's conveniently laying in the neighbors backyard.

• Build something. It could be made out of clay or Popsicle sticks.

• Design your own fashion collection. Combine shirts and pants and make it your own fashion design.

• Put on a fashion show. Use your latest designs from your fashion collection.

• Join a social media site. With your parents permission first.

• Start a blog. Write about how bored you are.

• Put a walkie-talkie in your mailbox and shout to people when they walk by. Watch their reactions when they think they're going crazy.

20. Call in sick at a place you don't even work at. I wonder if they would buy it or get mad at you.
