Boredom is part of life no matter how fun or busy your life is, boredom gets hold of you once a while. I would like to say boredom sets in when we idle but that’s not always the case because sometimes we do get bored of the stuff we do and need something else or new to do.
Lately I do not really get bored because I am always doing stuff that leaves no room for boredom but when I do get bored I got a couple of things I do to eliminate the boredom. Yeah! Because there is no room for boredom in my crib. lol
All the things I do when I'm bored are things I often do on a daily basis so I actually don’t get bored easily unless the gods of boredom descends on me lol.
Here are couple of stuffs I do when I am bored.
Music helps me to do away with my boredom I don't know if it's same for others too. Usually I play amapiano, afrobeats and hippop songs to lighten the mood cause why not, imagine being bored and playing boring songs or cool songs that’s like boredom squared, so I often go with my amapiano, afrobeats, hippop, songs I can dance to or songs that puts me in the mood to dance or gingers me up. I not good at dancing but if I got to shake some boredom off with dance then I will become a Michael Jackson or Chris Brown. lol

As a movie person, it is easy for me to get rid of my boredom, I could literally watch movies the whole day without getting bored. So anytime I realize boredom is trying to set in I quickly get my laptop and watch movies especially animes.
Now let me tell the biggest villain of my boredom, it is social media particularly tiktok, Instagram reels, and twitter. I go to watch videos, skits or content I like which is always available on my fyp ( for you page) and that’s if I have data bundle ,but if I do not have data bundle then I just have to watch movies or play music.
Now this may sound weird or funny but I sleep out of boredom, but in this situation it is always when the lights are out and I have nothing to do and my devices are low bar or probably off. But guess what when I wake up and lights aren’t back yet my boredom doubles lol so often I sleep hoping the lights are back when I wake up. It is like placing bet lol.
Usually stuff I do to get rid of my boredom are stuff I do on daily basis which makes it difficult to get bored but I do get fed up of them, Not everything I do at once but one thing after the other so when I am bored of something I am doing at time I switch to another thing .
thanks for reading and see you in my next post
