I have devised a list:
- Watching TV is the obvious one, so is reading a book, listening to music, posting a blog, playing stupid games on your computer or going on bored.com
- Painting your nails. If you really want to waste some time, try making tiny drawings on them with the nail varnish, or even learn esperanto and write out a secret message in your nails. (this is even more fun if you're a straight guy)
- Learn the lyrics to Jesus of Suburbia, it'll take you a whole week!
- Get as many books from the library as possible, and underline words in invisible ink (the kind that shows up under UV light) so that it makes out a weird message like "You are the chosen one, you must save the people of Crandacar, the small people will have the answer to your chair" . Only use classics, the older the better.
- If you own a make up bag, or any kind of bag with lots of things inside, take them all out, clean them, even if they're already clean, lay everything out in alphabetical order, and put it all back into the bag in that order.
- Raid your parents wardrobe and try everything out, put on some music and pretend you're in Uruguay's Next Top Model.
- Research everything you like on Wikipedia, read all the related articles. My favourite is going through lists of Metal bands and going on their myspace pages to listen to their music.
- Go on imdb.com and look up all the films you like, all the directors, and actors and read their bios (especially the cute ones)
- Write reviews for your favourite books on different sites.
- YOUTUBE! the neverending source of visual pleasure, where you will find ANYTHING you want- from the sublime to the mind-raping. Don't forget to leave lovely comments!
- Find swear words in various languages, Japanese is really cool, and Latin makes you sound very cerebral.
- My friend taught me this one: Look for people on Myspace/Facebook with the same names as fictional characters from Soap Operas, Films, Books, and so on.
- Read my blog :)
I've been avoiding essays and coursework today, suppressing the feeling of guilt with a large amount of denial, Freud would love me! Regina Spektor has been helping me keep in denial, I'm starting to really love her since listening to this song from my friends mobile when we were all really drunk and nearly passed out. Alcohol is BAD, kids!
