Bored of Life

[mrman526]

Hello guys this post is a little depressing but I’m seeking opportunity. I must also point out, I’m not lonely, I’m just bored.

So I’m bored of life. I’ve recently decided to part ways with my old friends because I just wasn’t getting anything out of hanging around with them. All my friends at university have there own relationships so don’t come out often. Ive tried organising stuff with them but to no avail really.

I have been living at home through most of university, but even when I was living there I lived with some of the most annoying people.

I’m also bored of my university. I’m a film student at an agricultural university and it bores me to death sometimes. I’ve been there three years and I’m tired of going there I want to get a job and earn money now.

I don’t really go out because I’ve been studying hard and have got top marks for most of my things, but its left me without an outside life.

I’ve also been stuck in Essex for most of my life, I haven’t been able to afford a holiday since god knows.

My brothers and sisters lived at their universities miles away and I do miss them and its kind of boring at home when there not here. When they do come back they have there boy friends and girlfriends to go to.

Nothing really thrills me anymore, I’ve been doing the same things for ages. Ideally I’d like to pack my bags and just move somewhere completely different. Either that or have a 12 hour day at a job that keeps me thoroughly occupied and stimulated.

Any ideas?

I know that feeling too. All the studying seems rather pointless when you just want to work and get money, yet no one will hire you unless you have a degree. I guarantee my last 3 years have been more mundane then yours. Unless perhaps you've spent 6 days a week 24 hours a day at your parents with no car,job,or really even minimal excuse to go outdoors. But I do concur with you that the loneliness is a smaller issue compared to the relentless boredom...Nice to meet you by the way.

Not sure I have any advice for you, it's a different issue yet interesting. Maybe, if you can, shift things to what doesn't bore you and find interesting.

search for someone who'd keep you company? a girl?

You see these posties often.

Life is as exciting or boring as you want it to be.

Time to make change.

Check out the vagabond movement!

I can't stress this enough, but there is a rising movement among the youth of the first world. Sites such as couchsurfing gaining popularity is symptomatic of the restlessness our youth feel nowadays. What I'd recommend for you is getting out into the world, maybe for 2-3 months during the summer at first, and see how you like it. Don't buy bus tickets or train tickets or anything like that. Try hitchhiking across central Europe.

Personally I spend about 8-9 months a year abroad, and have found ways of making myself self-sufficient. Theoretically, that means I could simply travel indefinitely. If you wind up liking the lifestyle, it won't be long before you meet other like-minded individuals. I've got some pretty crazy stories which came simply from staying on a locals couch via couchsurfing, and now I've got friends all over the world. Send me a shout if you want to know more!
