Keepin' Busy

Sit around and watch BOTH episodes of Neighbours (the 1:40 and 5:40 ones). This, for me, when I'm not working, is the watermark of idle bliss.

Edit: Apologies if you're not British and don't get this reference.

Both? Don't do it. That show rots brains. Even once a day is too much :p

All television rots the brain. Even the news is more and more resembling an episode of Celebrity Wankers Have Sex On An Island Somewhere Really Warm.
 
Things to do:

Sit down in the park and look at woman all day.
Listen to music whiles you sit in the park looking at woman.
Read a book
scream real loud at yourself in the mirror...that should keep you busy for at least 10 mins.

Ooh.

First I scrub my walls (you wouldn't believe how much chocolate :eek: was on these walls when we moved in). Then I prime them and paint them.

Many walls down. Many walls to go. Today the kitchen!

I lay down my first (and last!) floor (in our basement, of all places), too.

Floors suck.
 
Really no different from any other time of year for me since I am all out of school and stuff, so for me Summer is like the rest of the year except for it is blazingly hot and humid.

Though on occassion I have been known to take part in summer festivities, like summer festivals, 4th of July related celebrations, a few summer concert (outdoor pavillion style), and I try to make it to quite a few baseball games.

I save the vacationing for after summer, or at least towards the end of most student's summer vacations, that way wherever my family goes may have a little less vacationers than it would a month prior.

Over winter break from school all my roommates and a lot of my friends from SDSU went home for the holidays. I ended up doing a lot of cleaning of my place only to have it get trashed once my roommates came back.

Being in Southern California, there is always the beach.

You could join a sports league (baseball, billiards, softball, table tennis, Texas Hold'em, etc...)

See the outdoors (camping, mountain biking, hiking, etc...)

Start a collection/hobby

Volunteer!

That's just a few things I could think of off the top of my head. I haven't had a lot of time to get bored this summer with working full time.
 
Care free summer months? Ha!

This is my busy time. Come winter things will slow down somewhat (hopefully).

I feel like I've been running nonstop since mid-June...

I know, when winter/college time rolls around, things seem to slow down a bit for me too. :)

Ha, get used to that!


I pretty much relax, surf the net most of the day, swim at the pool, hang out with my girlfriend, and eat.. a lot.. of food. :D

..and sometimes I do a little work, but I try not to make a habit of it. ;)
 
I actually just started to get back into podcasting. Currently listening to TWiT and MacBreak.:eek:
 
Don't do anything. Enjoy your break while it lasts. :D

Or start preparing for your future, which will come sooner than you think. :eek:
 
Watch Anime
Go out with girlfriend
Go to aquarium and science museum (yay for plastination exhibit on friday)
Touch up on web design crap
Touch up some of my coworkers art
And last but not least Work
 
I dress up as fictional Disney characters and dance around shopping malls and other public places in green tights. It's sort of a community service announcement. Then, when I get tired, I take the costume off and sunbathe. I love the summer. :)
 
The summer is kind of just passing me by.

I jog 5 times a week in the morning around 5 am but just kind of prance around during the long summer days. I'm trying to take up an interest in kite boarding but my motivation level is 1 on a scale of 10. I just can't be arsed to do anything! I don't know why. :eek:
