Fighting boredom!

Even though I'm one of the laziest people that I know, I actually hate the fact that I have nothing to do. I've made a simple decision today. There's not going to be a single day of this holiday, that I have stayed inside the house alone all day. Even though the decision is simple, I'm having trouble drawing up a schedual.

So what can I do to prevent myself from having nothing to do? Not sure, to be honest. The snow makes it hard to make nice plans. In addition, my plans have to involve more than a mere walk around the block. I guess I'll just have to start visiting old friends or something.

What if they are all busy that day? Well, I'll just have to find something else to do. Go out in Amsterdam, perhaps. Even if I'm lonely there, I won't be locked up in my room, and I'll still have a relatively good time. Right now, anything seems better than spending each and every day looking at my screen, wishing I had someone to speak with.

As I said, I made this decision today. So what is it that I have done today? What is it that has driven me to this point?

This afternoon, I went outside of my house, initially just to post some christmas cards. However, after inserting them into the mailbox (of which the opening has been reduced to prevent kids from sticking fireworks in there), I kept on walking. I didn't feel like returning to my home, whatsoever.

I walked to the station in Weesp, where I remembered that I didn't have the money for any desirable destination. Instead, I looked up an old friend from my primary school, who lived right next to the station. We spent hours laughing, reminiscing and playing video games. This was the most fun I had for days. I don't expect every other day to be just as exiting, but I just can't go back to sitting in my room, choosing between sleeping or making homework.

If you decide to comment, I would like to know what your holiday plans are, just for the heck of it.

P.S. On my way home, I recognised Joram walking with (what I assume is) his girlfriend. I liked how they looked together. That was just something fun I felt like mentioning.
