I am so freaking bored?

Question

I just moved states a few months ago and had to leave behind a lot of really good friends. Well here I dont have any friends and I live in a nice neighborhood but the nearest place is about 15 minutes away. My dad works all day and my mom won't take me anywhere because shes either sleeping or doesnt feel like it. She says shes so bored but she was the one who wanted to move here to be closer to her friends. She, my dad and my brother all have cars so they can go anywhere but I'm stuck here at my house doing nothing. I'm so tired of staying inside the house. I've exercised and tanned my butt off outside but theres nothing to do other then that. Can you help me figure out some things to do?

Answer 1

if you are bored watch my coverage of the local St patricks Day parade http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFN5pF49l8A there is even horse poop in it

Answer 2

I would say that you need to go out and get some new friends. I know how hard it can be to make new friends but, if you can find even 1 new friend things should start looking up for you. Good luck and I hope you get a break from your boredom very soon!

Answer 3

If they allow you out of the house, go outside and look what you have around there locally.

After school walk around with someone you know, you'll find something to entertain you even if it is for a bit.

Answer 4

Go to the Park and play some Tennis or Softball that would ease some Boredom.

Go shopping

Go to the zoo

Read a book

Watch a movie

Order some food

Find a pen pal online

Tidy your bedroom
