What do you do with free time?

Go to the gym or something? I play basketball a lot so its a social activity for me. Maybe grabbing lunch with some friends you haven't seen in awhile or watching a movie? I was gonna tell you to get hooked on a tv show and rent out some seasons (something I have always wanted to do when bored, but never gotten around to), but it seems like you want to get out of the house. Either way, if you are starting a job next week, you'll be fine.

 

i kinda hang around SDN, read books, watch TV, takes multiple showers and baths, um.. go see a movie?

 

yup... that's pretty much what I do. I jog with my dog too.

 

I feel you. Take something up. If you're into exercising, set a goal. Before you know it, your break will be over and you'll miss it.

 

truer words could not be said. lol

 

I've started building a full Halo Master Chief costume...out of cardstock, hot glue, and fiberglass resin. We'll see if it's ready in time for halloween next year. Also, I play Starcraft...too much.

And come on SDN...and cry about not having many interviews yet.

 

when you do get interviews, you should wear that costume to em

Going to the gym/playing basketball are great ways to eat up some time. You could try taking up something completely random as well like cooking.

 

Party it up?

 

am i the only one that considers the gym a part of my regular day and not just some freetime activity lol

 

hehe I am trying to get a job at a Psychiatric institution as a Psychiatric Assistant, went for an interview last monday, they told me to call HR sometime next week to check on my status, they have to do a background check.

for now I am not really doing anything just looking around on the internets and catching up on my scrubs episodes.

 

Sleeping in as late as possible (not recommended), catching up on 24 Season 6, eating frozen pizzas and hot pockets, thinking about exercise, and taking my dog for car rides. I've also been working some in the NOVA physics book late at night when I'm at work.

 

weed

 

practice law @ night?

 

I walk my dogs, exercise, make better food than I'm used to, read, rent bunches of movies that I missed while I was busy, i'm considering starting a blog to spew my political opinions across the interweb, instant message/email friends in other states/countries, hang out on SDN, consume generous quantities of ETOH(usually not by myself though).

The solution to your problem sounds like it's to find another person to share all the downtime with. Maybe you could go find another person to hang out with?

I try to, but it's usually one of the first things to get cut if i'm busy.

 

ETOH? Whats that?

 

very cute !

 

By the way, if anyone can give me movie recommendations, it would be much appreciated. I rented the Love Guru last night via On-Demand. It was by far the worst movie I've ever seen. (already saw Batman, 21). When I look at these new movies, they look uninteresting.

 

Molecule of the Gods:

 

Dude go see slumdog millionaire... EPIC movie

 

Tropic Thunder and Pineapple Express were pretty funny. I've been trying to look up old classics that I've always heard about but never seen...like Fargo, Silence of the Lambs, Chariots of Fire, Scarface, Good Will Hunting, etc.

 

Nah...it's not a free time activity for me. Playing racquetball at the gym after "arms" day is though, and a painful one at that.

 

It's part of my regular day activity, but I've actually been slacking since break started. I need to get to Wooden tomorrow because they're closed for freakin' 3 days next week.

 

I want to see Pineapple Express but it doesn't come out till January.

 

oh and I also read craigslist personals on my free time, they are very amusing.

 

try reading "the best of craigslist"

Some of the funniest stuff on the internets.

http://www.craigslist.org/about/best/all/

 

Woooooooden. My New Year's resolution is to make Wooden my second home.

But to the OP, I surf regularly. I go to Malibu atleast 3-4 days a week for 2-3 hr surf sessions. But living in a fraternity house...well let's just say it takes more effort to study than enjoy free time. There is always someone around the house that wants to do something.

 

yeah it makes me wonder how many of those are actually real. I know I have published plenty of fake ones just to get a few laughs from the replies.

 

why did you just ruin it for me? I wanted to believe that these people actually existed for my entertainment! ignorance was such bliss
either way, they make me laugh. the woman with a mechanized dinosaur fetish from Jurassic park was especially hilarious.

 

Yeah, that was me. Sorry to ruin it for you

 

Haha, very true, really makes you wonder. I got an email from craigslist and found out my friend had placed this idiotic fake personal ad for me on there.

 

hehe it is the best when you're reading craigslist and find a personal ad of someone that you know in real life, or have seen around town before.

 

I knew it! Now what am I supposed to do with my 30 ft T-Rex costume??

What a great idea.

 

hahahaha
thats awesome

We should an SDN post your personal ad
But make it unserious

Fine flame me

 

yeah i dont get why its closed on friday. really lame.

 

Put it on and email me the pictures

 

So do I. I plan my day around the gym...it's kinda pathetic

 

Hmmm...we should, huh?

Same here! I actually feel bad for the rest of the day if I don't go to the gym. I'm always like, damn, I should've gone to the gym today. You just feel better after getting your workout done.

 

Why don't you go help someone in need, like at a homeless shelter?

 

House.

 

Think he was referring to leisure activities to unwind

 

Haha I must be REALLY pathetic then

Whats more pathetic is I haul a cooler of 4-5 tupperware meals around school every day to make sure my diet is always spot on LOL

 

I wish I had that dedication...

It's ok though, I keep telling myself that tomorrow is the day I will start to eat right and work out. Man, I love tomorrow.

 

Tomorrow rocks, it gives you the leeway to indulge today.

 

You should read Ghost Rider: Travels on the Healing Road by Neil Peart. It's a pretty good book about coping with losses. Probably a good read for anyone going into med school.

This is actually required reading if you attend Rush Med School... Neil was one of the founders of that school along with Geddy and Alex.

OOOO I do love Rush.

 

Lol

 

Just don't let the ladies know about this. Otherwise the only "Mystic Rhythms" you'll be engaging in will involve a box of Kleenex and Windows Media Player.
