remedies for the bored..

what is that feeling when you don't know what to do, your just so...so...so.BORED!!! but as i write this blog i just looked up the definition of the word and 'bored' is a inflected form (whatever the hell thats supposed to mean) of the word "Bore" which by definition means 'to pierce with a turning or twisting movement of a tool." my advice to you is that if and only if thats you feel like doing that to someone or something read on...otherwise...well otherwise your not in the same predicament that i'm in and you may leave..

so those of you in the same state that i'm in must be wondering what cure that i might have for this situation that we seem to be stuck in. well i offer you no magical remedy but all i can offer you is a sense of belonging that you are not alone. i'm sure that there are many people in the world who feel exactly the same.

Personally i feel we owe it to ourselves get out this rut. i would try to listen to the sunscreen man when he says says, "Do one thing every day that scares you." i know very impractical advice, but on the other hand...why the hell not?? well its not that i'm going to do that, the point is that if i do one thing that scares me once a week i might have something to think about during the week on how and what i want to do, as well as to reflect on it for couple of days later and the cycle continues.. thereby reducing the amount of time i spend feeling the "B" word.

well if doing one thing that scares you on a weekly basis is a lot why not try this, "like in the grass and think about nothing" impossible?? i know, where is there grass void of dog shit and paan in a polluted and dirty city like bombay? the answer is nowhere (i mean in bombay ppl pls don't say naigaon or powai n all). so do i mean the other grass ;-) no i don't, i mean metaphorical grass. you may ask WTF is metaphorical grass? well i'd say thats what you make it to be, it could be a nice drive (all the best in finding an empty road) or a stroll along the sea or for people as lazy as me, just staring at the roof in u'r own house with the TV off (yes the TV does have and off button, and so does your computer).

the easiest solution however is what i've saved for the last, google 'bored' and find this blog again and read it..and then wonder wtf this guy in on about in the first place. by writing this 'blog entry' i've wasted about 20-25 mins of time which i would have otherwise spent getting...yes you know it...BORED!!!
