LIVE

We’re all readers, streamers, facetimers now! Here’s what I’ve been up to / is on my list (and I’ll continue to update probably daily):

1. This thoughtful piece on the importance of friends when living alone by Lindsay Zoladz.
2. She linked to a piece in Jacobin about solidarity from Jedidiah Britton-Purdy.
3. Every time I see someone cough or touch on TV, I wince–turns out I’m not alone!!
4. Consuming all of Basically, basically.
5. I finally watched Shrill, season 2. Patti Harrison steals that whole show.

How will I ever regain the ability to focus on homework again?? My discrete blocks of time all blur into one another–meal time is study time is job app time, is leisure time, is exercise time. What we talk about when we talk about the new normal!

According to TNS’s gallup about boring things Finns find Finland to be the most boring Nordic country. The most boring Finnish city is Kouvola and the most boring tourist attraction in Helsinki is Kiasma, Museum of Contemporary Art.

The prototype of bored Finn is a 18-24 year old single man who spends a lot of his time on the internet and has a goldfish (?!). He lives in Kouvola, uses public transportation and chews gum while listening to mp3-player.

The results:

The most boring…

City: Kouvola 43%
Place to visit: Tax office (69%)
Nordic country: Finland (15%)
Car label: Nissan & Skoda (29%)
Hotel chain: Omenahotels (35%)
Restaurant chain: ABC-restaurants (43%)
Tourist attraction (in Helsinki): Kiasma (33%)
Food: Avocado pasta (34%)
Sport: Golf (41%)
Way of dressing: Rapper (33%)

Cute/Fun activities to do with friends

Based off of all the bullshit I do with my friends.

  • My best friend and I once made Pinterest boards for our ideal weddings and then compared.
  • We also sometimes play puzzle games using one Xbox controller (She grabs the left side of the controller and I grab the right side and we have to function as one person).
  • My friends and I frequently blast music and sing along to it while we cook or bake.
  • My best friend and I are both artists so we created a game in which one of us draws a very detailed pair of eyes and the other person draws the rest of the face as horribly as possible to create a cursed/hilarious result.
  • Face masks + virgin cocktails + Mario Kart = A damn good time
  • For sleepovers we like to dig up awful wattpad fanfic and do a dramatic reading using horrible fake accents
  • Listening to Russian Hard Bass while you play uno makes shit INTENSE
  • Idk why but smash or pass using fictional characters is hella funny
  • Sometimes my best friend and I will write down all the little things we think of when we see one another (songs, colors, flowers, etc. that we associate with each other) for three minutes then compare the results
  • We also love to plan our future adventures together (budgeting, timing, what languages we need to learn, etc.) over coffee
  • Hot chocolate + pajamas + board games = A fuggin party

In conclusion: I may be a depressed binch but I still know how to have a good time!!

“My creativity outweighs my boredom”
Draw this on a piece of paper and start doodling little lines off it and let your mind wander for a bit and let creativity overcome those blocks in your mind!

I’m bored. Want to skate. Want to hang out with friends. Mildly tempted to ask people about hanging at freaking Walmart.

Should probably at least go to the gym, but…

I’m so bored of myself. I want to try a new me.
Not a new hijab style or trendy shades,
I want to be adorned with the traits
I’ve left in the dust, the parts of me I shunned.

I don’t want to smile when you’re unkind,
I don’t want to talk when you are saying nothing,
I really want to frown at a children
sometimes
and accommodate my self
way before your St.Bernard,
so am I a fraud?

Maybe, a fraudulent authentic,
I’m so tired 
I just want to frown
sometimes

boredom
