Do you sometimes find yourself moping around the house with nothing to do? Do you ever say out loud, “I’m soooo bored”? WINC writer Antonio Fiorillo has come up with a top-ten list of ideas to brush off boredom and help you find activities to occupy your time!

Idea 1: Get in a comfy area! Try a bed, couch, chair, bench, etc. Sitting and laying down helps when you’re bored.

Idea 2: Have something to eat! Soup, tea, pasta, chips, candy, cocoa, coffee, fruit, etc. Food helps make you feel less bored instantly!

Idea 3: Play games! Video games, board games, card games, mind games, anything works! Games are a very obvious solution to any boredom.

Idea 4: Sleeping! Watch your mind slowly fade into a dream and soon hours become seconds. Dreaming of what you wish you can do is a very good idea to escape boredom.

Idea 5: Call/invite a friend! There’s nothing like surrounding yourself with people you trust and enjoy very much.

Idea 6: Go outside! Breathe in some fresh air and get stuff off your mind. It really does help when you’re bored and have absolutely nothing to do.

Idea 7: Make up jokes! If you want to make somebody happy and you want to be happy, make a very funny joke. DON’T be lazy with this or else this will fail easily!

Idea 8: Doing art! Let out some creative energy! If you have a bad case of artist’s block, then look up some inspiration. This will make you less bored in no time!

Idea 9: Talk about some things that you need to let out! It feels good to let out your emotions when you’re very bored.
