Have you ever had friends who complained because they have got nothing to do at home?Have you encountered that situation before?I'm sure you would have felt bored before.The thing is,we often say that we are bored because we can't find anything INTERESTING to do at home.Most teenagers prefer hanging out with their friends or posting statuses in Facebook.The thing is there is so much that you can do at home apart from all these.
Let's just sat you are alone at home.Your parents are at work.You don't have a driving license.Not only that,you don't have Astro.What are you going to do?Nothing.The thing is you can actually do something and at the same time spend your time wisely.Maybe you don't like reading.Have you thought about trying it?Maybe,maybe not.Try reading the newspaper.There is so much information and knowledge that you can gain.If you like watching movies,then read articles on Star 2 on movie reviews.If you like gadgets and technology,read the Star Bytes.See,there is so much to read about in the newspaper.If you don't like facts,then grab one of your favourite books and spend the whole day reading.
Have you tried cooking before?Maybe not.If you are alone at home,cooking might not be a good idea as it can be dangerous specially when there is no one at home.If your dad or mom is home,ask them for permission to cook first before doing anything.Try simple dishes such as fried noodles,omelet and so on.This basic cooking skills are vital especially when you're at college or university.Some people prefer to watch how a particular dish is done then to read it step by step.Then I suggest you to search in Youtube as it has a myriad of choices on how different meals are prepared.
Make something.Try drawing,or painting.It doesn't have to be fantastic.Try drawing a flower maybe.And then if it still looks dull,add some colour to it.You can use colour pencils,crayons or even water colour.Never mind if your painting gets ruined,you can always try again.
You look around your house.Books being shoved in the cabinet,clothes piled up in the laundry basket,rubbish bin overflowed with rubbish.Help clean and tidy up your house.Some of you'll might be grumbling "Hey,I have a maid at home.She can do everything".I know.But there's no harm in helping.If you don't like anyone coming to your room,then I suggest you to start cleaning your own room and to keep it tidy.
If you like music,then go and listen to songs in Youtube.If you have musical instruments at home,then learn how to play them.You can also learn how to play from tutorials in Youtube.There are websites which also give out free music scores and some that allows you to receive it once you have paid using your credit card.If you like dancing and you want to know certain steps,search it up again in Youtube.I remember once I was obsessed with Michael Jackson and I badly wanted to learn the Smooth Criminal dance moves.I searched in Youtube and I was impressed with one of the tutorials as step by step of the Smooth Criminal steps was shown.
These are some of the things that would be helpful for you,hopefully.Now,aren't there more than just Facebook and hanging out with your friends?
