Forums » Smalltalk » Bored.. As I wait for replies.

I get so bored waiting in-between replies. Like when I'm in the mood to RP, I'm in the mood. Lol. I feel like I need a bunch of RPs at a time, but I don't want to overwhelm myself. So I'm just stuck being very impatient as I wait for a reply. What do you guys do in-between?
I find myself rereading old parts of the rps i loved, drawing till pencil shavings, dust, eraser marks and smuggy hands appear, watching youtube to an unhealthy amount. Anime/Manga, that's a good one. Spamming me RL friends and GF till they wanna slap me. All that good stuff!

Would it shock you to know I only have like 3 friends and one of those is a guy friend that for some reason puts up with girl drama and period meltdowns? If i wasnt gay and he didnt have a GF, i would date him cuz of how sweet he is 😂

Oh I completely agree. I'd rather have a tight circle them a bunch of BS friends
Funny, I'm very outgoing. If I was a 7 deadly sin I would be Pride ( maybe a bit of lust but shhhh), but I don't like busy places or a lot of people. but a group of 8 or less. I'm the loudest one there

I usually edit my characters and write journal entries and such. I try to temper the desire to start a new rp when I see a good request, because I know if I do all thecdlow ones will suddenly go active. I do wait a lot because of the vast Timezone difference between me and North America and Europe where most of my writing partners are.
Mostly video games, being honest, but I’m working towards getting a job and attending an online college later on. I occasionally tinker with my characters, adding on new ones, or just posting a few ideas I’d like to try out.

What kind of video games do you like? What do you want to go to school for?
I often watach opera's when i am bored. I also (when i am very bored) i try to lear extra stuff with Khan academy or i learn new languages with Duolingo
This also happens to me a lot. I try to find something that will entertain me for more than an hour when it happens. I often just take out my 3DS or my phone and start playing a game or listen to musicals/operas. I try to avoid Netflix, since I get addicted to easily to any series, ahah. Or I just talk with someone that is online on the Small talk forum. Sometimes I find myself editing some characters. Working out or taking a walk outside is also good to kill time ~ (if you're into it, that is). Taking a nap with my cats is also a good way to wait between replies, ahah XD

I've watched The Count of Montecristo, Dracula, Notre-Dame de Paris, Don Juan, Roméo & Juliet, Rebecca, Carmen de Bizet, La flûte enchantée, Les Noces de Figaro, The Phantom of the Opera, and many others :)

I wanna watch the opera Les noces de Figaro , but i can't find an audio with my favourite soprano Judith blegen
I tend to play the forum games on this site, or ooc chat with whoever I can lure into chatting, or Smalltalk with people on the Smalltalk forum.

Occasionally I'll write short stories or poems and put them in those threads. (I think one is under Art and Creativity and one is under games.)
When I get bored waiting on something, I generally exercise to occupy my mind. For instance, if I am in a long queue for an Overwatch game, I tend to just do sit-ups until I get the game.
For when I'm waiting on rp replies, I do alternating exercises. I do ten push-ups, refresh the page. Ten sit-ups, refresh the page. Ten jumping jacks, refresh the page. Repeat. It really helps with the boredom!

I used to do this when my dailymotion video wasn’t loading! I should definitely do it again, ahah! It’s also easy to kill time while practicing music! I often practice some old pieces when I’m bored :)
