10 ways to pass the time...

Too often I see people tweet/ update their Facebook status informing their followers about how bored they are. When I'm not up to my eyes in college work or working at the weekend, I'm most likely to carry out one of the following as a way to pass the time.


1. Go for a walk. There is nothing better than going for a walk with your headphones in, completely zoning out. Exercise and fresh air, going for a walk makes you feel better and is a great stress relief. You are also saving £ in terms of petrol and in my case miles.

2. Meet up with some friends and family. This is probably my favourite pass time because I love being in other peoples company. It also allows you to catch up with peers and relax.

3. Pamper. I love a good pamper, there is no feeling like freshly painted nails!

4. Shopping. Apart from dads and brothers, who doesn't love shopping? Retail therapy is a great pass time.

5. Going out for lunch. Another great pass time, food, company and coffee. Not much more you could need!  

6. Read a book. In my case the only books I am currently allowing myself to read are 'The Kite Runner', 'Cupcakes and Kalashnikovs' and 'A Street Car Named Desire' due to English commands. Reading is ideal before bed as it's a fab way to relax.

7. Go for a run. I love running and try to go at least 3 days a week. It keeps you fit, you are getting fresh air and it also releases endorphins to the body.

8. Listen to music. I'm listening to music right now as I feel it helps me concentrate. Additionally, it makes things more pleasant and can improve your mood.

9. Go for a drive. Sometimes I feel like going for a drive as I get bored of sitting in the house; looking at the same four walls. There are endless possibilities of places to go in the car (McDonalds probably being the first choice of most teenagers).

10. Update your blog/ social media page. This is what I'm doing now! I fancied a revision break.
