When you are bored and will do anything…….

               You know those times when you are hanging out with your friends and you didn’t have any real plan of what you were going to do that day? Usually this can result in some kind of boredom, but fear not; this little game works every time! First set up an obstacle course in a place with a lot of space, like maybe an empty basement. To make the obstacle course take random stuff you find in closets and spread them around the room, make sure it is nothing that will break if you jump on it! Like a small trampoline, or a spinning chair. Add some pillows and blankets and your good.

               And know this is the most important step, take a light saber (fake of course, because if its real then you might slice your own arm off because this obstacle course can get pretty intense) then just make random rules, but you have to be swinging around the light saber the whole time. (If you don’t have a light saber at home you were a deprived child and should go to a phycology clinic) any way the obstacle course may sound something like this; first spin around on the desk chair 10 times, then jump onto the trampoline and bounce 15 times while singing “little bunny foo foo”. Then bounce onto a gaming chair (the rocking ones) and ride it like a pony back and forth 6 times ( while still waving the light saber around like you belong in a nerdy movie….sorry to anyone who enjoys star wars, but come on…. Really?) Then jump onto the couch, do an impression of the other person when they are dancing, and then to end jump into a pile of pillows and blankets like it is a pile of leaves. The whole time be timing how long it takes the person. You can also record them doing the course and if they do something embarrassing you can always blackmail them latter! Being bored is not an excuse to sit around and do nothing; there really is always something to do when you have fun friends around that are willing to do anything, no matter how crazy. The main thing while doing these obstacle courses is not to hold yourself back, they really aren’t about how long it takes you to finish the course, its bout how ridiculously dumb you look doing it and the laughter that comes along with it! Go ahead! Give it a try! (424)
