• 7/17/25-repeatable things

  Everyone has that one thing. The most basic, yet oddly fun stress reliever. Something that is so random, something that everyone else would question. Something that just passes time. For me this happens to be throwing a foam ball off walls. Yes, I know, throwing something off of something seems like the most boring thing in the world but it’s just fun for me. My dad listens to a lot of podcasts and sometimes when I listen to a bit of them, a huge theme in many is that repeatable things result in repeatable outcomes, like if something is working, why change it? For me I do this throwing thing almost any time I have nothing to do, it just fills up the boredom, or “nothingness” and is something so mindless I can think of something completely different while doing this. To illustrate to you how much I do this, let me give you the exact details. It’s summer break for me, and it can’t be everyday that you meet a friend, or have a class, meaning much of the day is doing assignments and courses, You obviously can’t do this all the time(at least if you want to keep your brain from frying), so I have adequate breaks. During these breaks I read or throw my ball around. The total time I throw around is probably around an hour a day if not more. The walls in my room literally have black marks in the shape of circles from how much I throw. It’s just so easy, so oddly satisfying, and I’m sure that you have something like this, or you just haven’t discovered it yet. So next time you are bored think about what is something basic that makes you happy. 🙂

  Question: Do you have one of these “repeatable things” if so what is it? Comment your answer down below!

  It’s summer break for me. Every summer goes the same exact way. I start so excited to be off from school, but as the break progresses I realize I am extremely bored without school. My weekly schedule is generally the same on every week. Meeting up with friends(roughly 2 times a week),and taking courses/classes to speed up learning. Now I wanted to spice things up and as many say it is “better to be super busy than super bored”,I chose something that could have an element of uncertainty something that would be cool to try out. You guessed it, a blog! I never really cared about views or anything like that, I just wanted a place to put down my thoughts. However, I was stunned on how many views and likes I had got within 24 hours of my blog opening(sure, nobody is becoming mega-famous, or anything like that, but it is nice to know that people actually care for what I am writing). I realized that blogging is a very fun and easy thing to do, and could be used as a stress reliever when times get tough(important school tests, many events line up, competitions, etc.). So maybe being bored wasn’t all that bad, at least it got me into blogging!

  Question of the Day:
  If you are a student like me comment what you are doing over summer to pass the time, or if summer is actually super busy for you. If you are an adult think back to your summer breaks, and what did you do during those times)

  btw: I will post twice a day, one regular post(like this one),and one funny post(check out 7/10 funny post),hope you enjoy!
