I’ve been on here for about ten- fifteen minutes and already I’m done. I can’t believe I used to spend hours on this bloody thing, and I can’t believe that people still do. There is so much more to life than staring at a freakin’ screen. I don’t want to look back on my youth and only be able to say “I wasted a lot of time on Tumblr.” Fuck that. The internet is alright, in moderation, just like everything. But for fucks sake, don’t be so goddamn dependable on a phone or a computer. Cut yourself off. And for people who have a hard time thinking what else you can do besides spending five hours moping on Facebook, here’s a list. 

• Go bowling.
• Read a book. Read a lot of books.
• Make tea.
• Watch movies. Better yet, watch them on mute and put in your own dialogue.
• Draw strangers on the bus.
• Cook something delicious for someone you care about.
• Throw yourself in an ocean, lake, pond, pool, bubble bath. 
• Take long walks and goofy pictures.
• Meander until you find a “DO NOT ENTER” sign, then go in. 
• Hunt down the Bacon Bacon truck. 
• Wear glitter, and put glitter on as many things as possible.
• Make play-dough statues.
• Paint your nails funny weird things. 
• Make a collage.
• Try to rap.
• Search through astronomy books and go star gazing.
• Eat a block of cheese. Regret nothing.
• Dance. Anywhere and everywhere. 
• Do some fun touristy bullshit.
• Go to an aquarium and lay down next to the jellyfish tank. Take a nap.
• Make yourself a hammock.
• Sew something.
• Pick wildflowers and press them in books. 
• Make soap. Fight Club style.

• Write letters and postcards.
• Tell someone how much they mean to you.
• Pick up an instrument. Start a band.

• Make more tea.
• Get stoned and watch cartoons. Best time of your life.
• Serenade random people on the street.
• Have sex. Or masturbate. Eat pussy. Blow someone. Whichever tickles your fancy.
• Take a train to nowhere.
• Make comfy pillows for your home so people can have someplace to sit. Invite people.

• Watch documentaries.
• Make mix tapes.
• Cuddle something, anything. Person, pillow, stuffed animal, pet, hell, you can cuddle a couch. Just cuddle.
• Philosophize.
• Volunteer for something you believe in. If you don’t believe in anything, take a good look at the world, I’m sure you’ll find something. 
• Have a Lebowski day. Wear a robe, wander around, drink a white Russian, find a rug and love it. 
• Doodle on people. 
• Learn how to skate, rollerskate, surf, ride a bike, drive, ect. 
• Alter your wardrobe.
• Find a trustworthy cure for the hiccups. 
• Fall in love. Could be with a  musician, person, animal, author, song, just love something and appreciate it.

Ect, ect. The world is your oyster. So go the the pearl. Or Pearl’s french fries.
