Boredom is just another way of saying you're relaxed.

Sunday, September 28, 2008


I seriously don't understand those folks who say they are bored. Repeat after me. There is no such thing as boredom, There is no such thing as boredom ,There is no such thing as boredom, There is no such thing as boredom, There is no such thing as boredom. Well now that you're bored of repeating. Let me explain my theory.

Being a first year entails a lot of work. You have to work on your looking-ahead-in-the-distance-pose for those random pics that are taken of you in the only nightclub in Grahamstown, Friar Tuck's (EQ doesn't count count as I am always broke to pay the admission fee and the music is really too 'G' for the emo in me, so no offense to you EQ-goers). You have to perfect that cool I-don't-care attitude that will hopefully win you some more friends on Facebook. You have to constantly run to the Library because you forgot your student card in the photo-copying machine again. You have to do all those tuts otherwise you will threatened with a DP warning that will ultimately ruin your chances of being a second-year. You have to always check on RUconnected to see what the Journalism and Media Studies Department is up to otherwise that saying "DP removed" will be become a recurring nightmare and overtake those dreams (in terms of scary-factor) of your great uncle Raj doing the full Monty at Christmas time. You have to always walk somewhere be it to lectures, meals, tuts, Stevies (The new name for Union), Friars, Pick 'n' Pay or Walker House (Ironic name, don't you think).

All in all the point I am trying to get at is that being a first year means a lot of WORK. So when one day you are miraculously blessed with some free time. Do not say you are bored because that's just insulting. Instead enjoy every moment of it and don't let any of that free time go to waste.

Here are some things that you can get up to:


  • Sleep

  • Eat

  • Sleep

  • Eat

  • Sleep

  • Sleep

  • O ya, and Sleep

This list is no joke. I bet you a million billion zim dollars that you will do exactly what's on that list because I am a ninja forecaster of events.


Enjoy the Free-Time
