No Internet?


By Aiza Habib


So, you're stuck at home, and yes I do know you have been for the past what, year? Your probably bored I mean you could go outside- but you'd have to wear a mask which gets uncomfortable, wellwhy not watch a movie? oh your internet is down... Well too bad. Only kidding, here is a list of things to do when you are bored. By me.
1. set a stopwatch and run around your house repeatedly each time start it again, you'll see it gets faster so you can navigate around your house quicker (This comes in handy if you need to run from your room to the kitchen to get a midnight snack)
2. go into your kitchen and choose random ingredients to see what you can make out of them and serve it to your family. it might taste bad, but who knows unless you try?
3. read a book, I know your thinking that's so simple or I do that everyday, but here's the twist go to pages 15, 27, and 32 and do whatever they say combined, My example: The door creaked, I think I need to rest, they were busy watching tv- So then I'd combine them by opening and closing the door until it made a sound then I'd rest and then watch tv- oh wait my internets down :( if that doesn't sound fun keep reading.
4. take some time to clean up your room "That doesn't sound fun-" Well then make it fun! blindfold yourself and see how much you can clean up your room it might end up as a mess OR you'll have a clean room, you could also color-code your closet (Yes I'm crazy thanks for asking.)
5. If none of these are good enough for you, well go ask your parents if they have any photos of you from when you were younger "what's so cool about photos-" well you can see the younger you. If you think that's boring I found a video of me 5 years ago on my birthday making an ice cream cone out of playdough, if that isn't interesting to you, well go check if your internet is back, by the time you're done reading it might be- WAIT don't go yet there's still more, Hah I got you, there isn't and that's number 6 make jokes randomly/lie for no reason, just close your eyes and picture a dark room the first thing that pops up in that room is what you make a joke out of- for me its a cow eating ice cream, see what you come up with.
7. create a bucket list or read notes from when you were little, I found a letter to my future self in google docs, and let me tell you- I have changed a lot my favorite color from purple to lavender, my favorite book, you get the point.

           Ok if your still bored you shouldn't be- you just read that entire thing. fine one last idea, number 8. close your eyes and choose three random colored markers, pencils, etc. then close your eyes and draw something random, go up to one of your family members and ask them what it looks like, for example, a crying hippo with a giraffes tail and elephant ears. (I already answered your question, yes I am crazy)
 I hope you aren't as bored now
