How old are you? I had one summer where I worked 3 jobs and still had a LOT of downtime. More jobs will give you more money to find fun with.

Do you have friends to hang out with? Maybe you could pick up a new hobby. Go to the library -- many of them have an online hold system, so you can reserve books on whatever topic you might like. It only costs 25 cents per book to do that at my library. You could also volunteer at the animal shelter. They usually need someone to walk dogs.

Our library is awesome; they also have DVDs, CDs, and all kinds of anime/manga. If you don't find something you like, they can usually get it for you.

I'm pretty sure the animal shelter also needs people to help with the cats, rabbits and other small animals, but I'm not sure what they do -- I just put walking dogs because that's what I did.

The idea of reading does not sound bad, it could kill your free time while doing something productive. Reading at your library could prove to be more interesting than you think. You could also try video games, if you have ever had interest in them.

I know how you feel. for me, it is that I have the urge to do so much but my own limitations keep me from going out and doing them. Maybe you should get a journal, a regular paperback journal and write in it- i know this helps me when I feel bored, you can get things out on paper much more easily, write poetry, lyrics, and maybe even attempt at fiction! I also get bored easily but I contribute it to my lazy habits.

Read, draw, write, paint, check out new bands (online or at a local music store), walk, go to an art supply store and find some thing you have never tried before and start it with out hesitation. I am never bored.

I think you should learn how to use proper grammar and spell correctly before you type shit like you just did.

That would be a good start of things you should do.

get a cheap digital camera and go out for really long walks and snap a photo of everything you find interesting. It's fun, and exercising at the same time.
