Boredom

Since it is summer holiday, and I don't have any commitments, I really don't do anything all day long. The past week has past by really slowly, and I haven't done anything else than exercising, sleeping, watching television and sitting on the couch, staring like a zombie into nothingness. And doing all this makes no sense to me, so I have a plan. I am going to make a list with activities I can do when I'm bored and I'm going to do that right now. I am going to make the list as long as I possibly can, and if I think about something later, I will supplement this list immediately. If I can, I will also print this out and hang it next to my bed, so that every time I wake up and start to sigh because I don't know what I am going to do that day, I will see the list and make a plan for that day.

Okay, so... I'm leaving for my holiday in Italy on the 18th of July and I will return the 25th. Then I have exactly one week until I'm leaving, again, for Crete. I will stay in Chersonissos for two weeks. I can prepare some stuff for both vacations, like making lists for what I have to take with me or buy. Let's start this!

1. Make a lists for what to bring with me on both holidays
2. Buy a gift for my stepsisters' birthday
3. Play Minecraft
4. Play The Sims 3
5. Try to blog at least once a day
6. Re-watch Avatar (AtlA and LoK)
7. Draw manga
8. Relax in the garden
9. Go out with friends
10. Work
11. Listen to music
12. Write a story
13. Make lots of pictures
14. Exercise at least one hour every day
15. Impress random guys
16. Watch a film (you have over 700 films, so there's always at least one film you are in the mood for to watch!)
17. Download new applications for your new phone
18. Download new music
19. Read a book
20. Buy new stuff you need for your next school year (try to procrastinate this as long as possible)

These are some things I can do, but I know for sure that I will think of more things to do later, and when I will, I shall add them to this list as well!

Anyway, after I made this list, I went downstairs and ate my dinner. I would like to talk about a few things. My diet is going great for now! I didn't eat any sweets for quite a long time now, and I feel like I don't even need to any more. So that is a good thing. I used to eat a whole bag of chips a day (usually extreme big bags, 300 gram if not more) so that wasn't too good for me. I quit doing that and now I only eat fruit. I drink those breakfast drinks in the morning, eat a bowl of yoghurt with fruit in it for lunch and I eat my normal diner in the evening. I also drink lots of water, and at least one tiny cup of tea a day. When I get hungry I either eat a piece of fruit, or I eat a tiny cup of custard. I'm excited about how I will look in two weeks, because even I myself can see some changes in how I look like already, after a month of dieting (I have been eating out three times though), so these upcoming weeks look promising. 

Also when I was downstairs I was looking in the appstore if there were any fun or interesting applications that I wanted to download, and then I saw an e-reader application. I downloaded it straight away, and I am happy I did it. The first thing I did was looking if they had the book "The Perks of being a Wall Flower". I wanted to borrow that book from the library to read it during my holidays, but when I saw they have this one, I started to read the book straight away. I don't know at which page I am at the moment, but I have read twelve percent of the book already. I really like this book. I actually wanted to safe it up until I'm going on holiday, but I just couldn't stop reading it as soon as I started. I wanted to read the first page of it, so I would know a bit about the book, but it turned out that I've read like four chapter already, I guess.

And after reading a part of this book, I realise how much I love to write. Luckily I will be able to blog when I'm in Italy or Crete, because I downloaded the Blogger application for my smartphone as well. And I'm going to use it a lot. I have mentioned this a few times already, but I just cannot hide how excited I am to enjoy blogging again, as much as I used to do on my older blog (if you're curious, I already put a link to my older blog in a previous post of mine). 

Okay, but for now, I have to put an end to this blog. I am going to watch television now, and somehow I feel great right now! Hopefully this feeling will last the rest of the evening! 

Everyone has their own hobbies and obsessions. I have some as well, obviously. But it seems that my hobbies change every now and then. Some of these hobbies are only enjoyable for me for a certain time of the year. I start to enjoy reading books as if my life depends on it. Last year, the last Harry Potter film came out and therefore I wanted to read all the Harry Potter books, and I borrowed three of them from the library.

Harry Potter is also one of my temporary obsessions. As soon as I read a lot about it on Twitter or Tumblr, I immediately want to watch all the films and read the books. I remember how excited I was about Pottermore in the beginning. But after a month or two, I had forgotten about its existence. And really, I enjoy reading little parts about Harry Potter, but really, it just isn't as special as it used to be any more.

The same goes for drawing. I really really really love to draw and I'm actually a little bit good at it (I think, maybe?), but for some strange reason, I can only put some effort into drawings I make during winter, but now, during spring, I just don't like it as much as I did a few months ago. I don't even use my Deviant Art account any more to upload drawings.

There are some hobbies of mine that I enjoy throughout the whole year. And one of them is writing. Just writing. This is a bit of a broad concept of course, but I enjoy every kind of writing. I used to blog when I was younger (around age 12), I also wrote books and poems, but I also enjoy writing at school. And this sounds nerdy or whatever, but I actually like it. When I enjoy a certain subject or lesson, and I understand what we're being taught, I want to actually do my homework. We had to write a little story about a girl who went on vacation with a bus and disappeared, and we had to tell what had happened to the girl. I enjoyed writing the story.

But I still think I don't have enough talent to write good stories. I wanted to be a writer, I always did. But I don't think I have enough talent, or that I am creative enough to write enjoyable, exciting, scary, funny and above all interesting stories. I want people to read what I wrote and think about it. It has to be a story that makes people think. It isn't as easy as I thought it would be.

But having a blog is good enough for me, for now.

First post!

And boom, I'm about to write my first blogpost in my new blog! Yeah, new blog, indeed. I will explain this. This isn't the first blog I made. I've already had a blog when I was younger. I always enjoyed writing there, but after two years, it started to get rather boring and I slowly stopped blogging.

After a few months I actually started missing my old blog, and thus I came back, but it just wasn't the same any more. I considered to make a new one, and I did, but I didn't enjoy it as much as I used to, and again I stopped blogging after a month.

But now, a few months later, I feel like I have to make a new start with blogging. I always really enjoyed it and I'm also a bit older now. It felt like a good time to begin anew.

I don't know how often I will write new posts. Forcing to write something has never worked out well for me, so I'm not going to do that.

Hopefully this new blog will become just as loved as my old one, and of course I hope that people will enjoy what I write!
