HOW TO WASTE TIME- 12 super ways

Hi there!
As you might have read my 'ABOUT ME' description already, you might have known by now that I am a really big procrastinator. And these winter hols,(they were simply awesome) I spent my time literally lazing around and wasting the so called 'precious hours' of my life. I was being taunted and nagged by my parents a lot (like many of you might have experienced it)  Well, nevertheless,I decided to pen down how I spent my holiday but at the end of the day, 'ways to waste time' looked a rather suitable title;-D .SO HERE ARE SOME OF THEM TO HELP YOU-


  1. Sleeping till late morning-  It is quite relaxing and you can surely waste the most vital time when your parents will ask you to do something fruitful. Believe me, I used to wake up at noon!
  2. Play pranks- Playing pranks can be a really good task. here are some ideas that you can try-
Call your friends and talk to them in silly voices, tell them that they have won a lottery ticket or they haven't paid their mobile bill and are eligible to be jailed.
Wear a scary mask and frighten the kindergarteners of your building.
Fool your elder sister/brother by telling them that a boy/girl called for them.
 keep mewing like a cat or bark like a dog
  1. Daydream- 'Daydreaming' or making castles in the air is the best way to kill some valuable time. Fantasize your life and think how you would be if life would be a little different. Conjure up old memories, they really matter, don't they?
  2. Design a scene- Just think, what if there was a zombie attack in your city? you couldn't really sit like that. Make a list of what would you do, which of the friends would you save if they didn't slow you down, and what precautions would you take?
  3. Staring at the wall- Glare at the wall in front of you. You can also try staring at the ceiling (at least you can observe the fan moving) if the wall colour bores you or maybe if you just don't like looking at it.
  4. Mirror, mirror on the wall- Stand in front of the mirror and boast and exaggerate about your good qualities, try some expressions or just watch yourself. It will surely help you.
  5. Loiter around the house- Insert your hand in your pockets and roam around the house like a cool dude or in your room (if its big enough or until if your parents don't send you there) and just imbibe the pleasure of nil responsibilities at your shoulders.
  6. Check on others-  If you are really bored, then you can always go around and check on what your family members are up to. Visit your brother/sister's room and pester them until they shoo you off.
  7. T.V praise the lord!- Oh! how can we not count on television, the idiot box, just the right company for any person to idle time away. Glue your eyes to the screen while gorging on some yummy snack, potato chips for instance. You can keep watching for hours that is, if you wont get scolded!
  8. Scribble fun- Just pick up a pencil or a pen and a rough sheet, and lo! you have the best ever formula to waste time. Doodle and doodle till every part of the sheet is finished. It was my favourite and most enjoyable chore during the holidays. Who knows, you might become a famous doodle artist some day!
  9. Annoy everyone- Try to do something which annoys your brothers and sisters or maybe your neighbours (if they aren't pretty kind) For instance, let the music blare on loud volume for hours or take your scream test. You can also make some ugly/funny faces to the kid next doors if he/she isn't sensible enough. 
  10. Friends forever- Company matters a lot. So it is advised that you make friends who are idlers like you and would always welcome you when you feel like doing nothing. Anyway, it is always better to waste time with someone rather than squandering all of it  yourself!

how I start my day


Some of the most important moments of our life involve the time of morning. It is the time when the mind is fresh and quite free from all the stress of life. We should wake up carrying a little of joy when we yawn and leave all our stress and tension with the peaceful sleep. We should be grateful to god that we wake up to the rays of sunlight to start a day afresh and full of surprises as there aren't many people who are lucky enough to see sunshine every day. 
I usually spend my first few moments by chanting the name of holy one and taking his blessings for the day ahead (that is before I press the alarm clock off ;D) I open my eyes and stretch my body to tell it that its high time I leave comfort and spend time on doing something fruitful. I arrange the bed and then I usually stand near my window to wish good morning to the little world outside and receive back the warmth. The beautiful mother nature makes me smile to start my day. Then I get ready for work and binge on a light but healthy breakfast (usually cereal, milk or fruits). I make a mental to-do list afterwards and prioritise the jobs at hand. I do not recommend to prepare a mental checklist of work when you take a shower or freshen up, as the word itself suggest these things helps us to begin the day with a relaxed and calm mood. So make sure you do not panic-stricken yourself with loads of work thoughts during the first moments. Some people prefer to go through a newspaper or a magazine for they feel it is the best time to utilise the energy of brain. But I rather prefer you should work towards your mental health than working mentally. Do a bit of yoga or take a small stroll to check if everything's alright with nature. Spend quality time with your family. If you suffer from stress then do take out five minutes to read a motivational quote each day (Google it) to help build yourself or peek into the mirror and introspect yourself.
 Sip your favourite cappuccino while playing with your pets. But make sure you keep away from any of the electronic gizmos. Since you are going to keep yourself glued to them in the later part of the day, its always good to avoid them for now. 
          
Remember to keep fit and healthy and always stay happy!
