Bordom and life goals

In continuation with my previous entry, holidays are really boring.

It has come to my attention that with said boredom, I am sort of productive.

During recent holidays I have made it a mission to learn miscellaneous facts, if you will. In previous periods of boredom I have learnt various tricks which are performed with poker chips. I also spent some time learning all the states of America and their respective capitols.

I am currently trying to learn the entire populate which is president’s of the United States of America. Including the dates in which they were in office and various historical events that happened because and during their time in office. This is proving to be difficult as I do not respond well to large blocks of information and have yet to find a game which can teach me. (Reference to how I learnt the states and capitols of USA).

It has recently become a habit of mine to go running when I’m bored.

What I find to be my greatest achievement’s that has produced from being bored all the time is my ability to play guitar. One Christmas, I asked for a guitar, and I got one, ever since I have been teaching my self how to play. It had been one of my many life goals and it has given me a sense of accomplishment.

With my never ending boredom, I have found ways to carry out my life goals…
