Time to start a new project or hobby!
Take a walk in the snow, and breath deep… ;)
Make a snowman, then go inside and drink some hot cocoa. You could also shovel your neighbors driveway or sidewalk, especially if they are elderly.
you can study for my russian and poli sci exam that I have tomorrow, and feel free to come up with a topic for my public speaking class. Also, look into internships at the public defenders office in columbus :D I think ill get some food in the mean time.
Go out and pay it forward-
Visit a senior center, feed wild birds, do something nice for a neighbor.
Or go to the library and learn about someones elses life.
Or just go drink in the beauty of nature while trying not to freeze.
Beer, pizza, and masturbation. That is how I plan on spending my snow day.
@johnpowell: Please tell me it’s going in that order, no need to cross-contaminate.
@asmonet :: Probably masturbate, nap, beer, and pizza.. That is how I roll.
Retreat into the darkest corner of your house, preferably where no ray of sun can penetrate. Now reflect on the awkward position that you “friend’s” perfidy has put you in. Feel the resentment well up in that empty pit where your heart used to be. Question everything else that you once had faith in. Now, plot your revenge in minute, lurid detail.
OK, now pause a moment, and pull back the window shade a bit. Allow your mind’s eye to drift back in time to some of the golden moments you and your friend have shared in the past. Think about the times (surely there have been some) when you’ve been less than a perfect friend. Wonder how much pain you’ve brought into the lives of others without even knowing it. Writhe in the realization that a lifetime of kind gestures might not suffice to balance out all the hurt you’ve sown.
Wipe away the tears and reach for your cell phone. Text your friend and beg him to let you continue to be his friend, unworthy as you may be.
There, doesn’t that feel great? And you’ve probably killed most of the day!
Write yourself a letter, seal it in an envelope inside an envelope inside an envelope, and open it in 10 years.
@johnpowell: Please, for the love of pizza, wash your hands.
Go for a walk, take some pictures. Relax, watch an old movie. Read a book. Make some grilled cheese.
@Elumas lol thanks I’ll def give it that link a listen, though unfortunately its not quiet the topic of my class, but close. We are studying the developing world and the different theories and what not of how a country goes from where say korea was after the korean war, or brazil before the great depression, and how they industrialized quickly, and how other countries might accomplish this. yay
enjoy it!! Because life is almost certainly too short.
Time to get yourself a cup of coffee, put on ur favourtite music/movie, lie down on ur couch, bed and enjoy a good and relaxing evening.
