what do you guys do to distract yourself from sdn?

[Eastcoast24]

I literally am on this website almost 24/7 and I can't stop checking my emails. I don't have work so I just stay home most of the time. My wallet isn't thick either so I can't go out.

What do you suggest that I do?

I can't get a job with only 4 weeks left until fall semester starts.

 

[Mr Avante]

Make puzzles. Lots of puzzles.
I prefer those with 1000+ pieces.

I have a job, but you could go shadow a dentist or volunteer somewhere.

 

[Glimmer1991]

[Ferneezy]

crush my enemies, see them driven before me, and hear the lamentation of their women

Go workout so when you finally get interviews you can just show them your 6 pack and they will give you a silent acceptance right there on the spot.

Go on a drive. When I have nothing to do ( which isn't often as most of us pre dents know) I like to take drives on back country roads and get a bit to eat. You could also go hiking, x-country running, have friends over for a game of cards.

Netflix!

Ooo, series bingeing

 

[Glimmer1991]

Oh yes! I've watched...

Grey's Anatomy (until it got stupid... I think up through season 5)
House
Weeds
Breaking Bad
Nip/tuck
Glee
The Tudors
The Vampire Diaries
True Blood
Game of Thrones

My parents have watched MANY more, though. They watch a netflix disc practically every night before going to bed.

I hear I need to start watching The Walking Dead. I'd also like to watch Dexter...

+1 to Walking Dead - I need to watch more of that too ;O

- I didn't know anyone else watched Nip/Tuck lol. My parents watched that show religiously

- GoT is awesome except for all the sexually explicit scenes and they kill off all my favorite characters. When I was reading book one, they beheaded *insert character name* and I was like NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

- I wanna see Breaking Bad! Everyone says it's awesome but I've yet to see it

EDIT: Edited for spoiler control as requested by two thirty

I watched Nip/Tuck for the heck of it because I remember wanting to watch it with my parents as a kid, but they wouldn't let me (and for good reason!). It was a TOTAL trainwreck and sometimes painful to watch, LOL! All of the episodes are on Netflix instant, so I watched them all two summers ago.

Breaking Bad really is awesome! I'm still waiting for them to upload the newest season on Netflix instant. My parents don't have the discs in their queue because they're in the midst of some other show. Meanies.

HBO shows are so explicit! My boyfriend and I are awful when watching them... You know how at the beginning, you get a little warning of all the "bad" things that are in the episode, such as explicit language, graphic violence, etc? We both always chant out, "NUDITY! NUDITY! NUDITY!" right before that screen comes on. On the very rare chance it isn't listed, we both joke we might as well not even bother watching that episode. We're just kidding, though. Some of the stuff in True Blood is just downright awkward to watch... Actually, that show has gotten lamer and lamer, but oh well. It's something to watch on Sunday nights.

Everyone keeps dying in GoT! I love Tyrion and Daenerys. I hope one of them wins... even better if they team up.

New episodes of Breaking Bad in a week. Can't wait. And the first 8 episodes of season 5 go on Netflix tomorrow so you have a week to watch them before they air the last 8.

And NMC almost everyone has seen GoT at this point but edit that...that's a huge spoiler for S1.

 

[ToothbrushBuddy]

Volunteer somewhere, try to make a new friend.

Omgosh lol, when GoT first came out, my grandma had just gotten DirecTV (she had bunny ears before) and she had HBO on it. I had no idea what GoT was, and it was Easter holiday. My cousin and I were sitting in the living room watching it and then all of a sudden *BOOM* Nudity! I kind of just looked over at him with this look on my face O_O and dove for the remote to change it ASAP.

So glad my grandma and the rest of the women in the family were in the kitchen and dining room at that point in time haha!

Dude, there's only one thing you can do if you are home alone with a laptop

If not,
1. Walk to the closest mall/plaza and hit up Forever 21 or something.
2. Holler at some fine broads, make sure the first thing you say tells her that you are going to be a dentist in less than 5 years ( automatic panty wetter ).
3. Get her number
4. Go to her place
5. Go on sdn... at her house

 

[Ionz]

Hardcore calisthenics and HIIT exercises. Takes your mind completely off of SDN or basically anything other than trying to replenish my oxygen debt lol..

Forever 21 is packed with 15 YO.

 

[r2thekesh]

Sell plasma. Make on average $20 an hour. If you add workouts, you can bulk up and up the amount you can donate to $25 a donation. Plus you can read, watch DVDs/blueray, study, and other things during your waiting time. Helps defer interview costs.

My (and potentially yours) to-do list:
1. Get down a list of books/movies I have been wanting to enjoy, and start tackling one each.
2. Meet up with old friends and catch up.
3. Work out.
4. Take naps.
5. Become a tutor and make money.
6. Do the dishes, try new cooking recipes, do the chores.
7. Practice singing/music.
8. Write a journal.

 

[hellobruin]

LOL at this entire thread; y'all are funnyyyy.

I'm taking a gap year, and I'm currently working, but I still have a huge amount of free time. So I'm going to do some semi-boring things that I thought I'd never do: garden some vegetables, try out Rosetta Stone, marathon Netflix while in my Snuggie and a carton of ice cream...

Glamorous life, I know.
