Ziggy's Entry - Task One
A copy is posted here (as instructed on the main page) and another copy will be sent to Yoshi momentarily.
Surviving January
With the holiday season over and the new year already begun, you are probably thinking about ideas to cure those inevitable times of boredom which are sure to spring up sometime in the coming month. Never fear, though, I am here to offer you some suggestions, most of which are fun and creative and not already activities you probably do!
1.) TV Shows on DVD - Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock, you probably know that the latest craze (as far as DVD’s) are entire seasons of television shows in one box set. Why not go rent (from your local video store or library), or even purchase a season today? With a variety of shows ranging from The O.C. to Survivor to Spongebob Squarepants, a ton of shows (which will take up a lot of time), and a decent price, you cannot go wrong with getting these DVD’s!
2.) Have a Themed Party - Unless you are an internet junky who does not do anything outside of school, you probably have some friends who would be more than willing to come over to your house to hang out. But next time, what if you made it a party; and not just a music and food party - what if you themed it around something? Try theming your party around a favorite book, movie, or time period; for example, Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings are excellent choices. Try to pick a theme that will interest all of your guests, and not just yourself.
3.) Make Your Own Website - More and more places on the internet are offering free website hosting services; so why not take advantage of them? You can make it about anything, maybe even a certain virtual pet site we are all addicted to! Web-designing is a great hobby to get into, and with places like Link Not Allowed making it easy to make your own pages, now is a great time to start!
4.) Create Your Own Laugh Board - Now I know you are probably thinking I am a lunatic for saying this, but a fun idea is to create a ‘laugh’ board, which contains any clippings of comics, funny quotes, or anything that makes you laugh! It’s great for when you are feeling sad, or even when you just need a chuckle! It is also a lot of fun to show your friends, so that they can see everything that makes you giggle!
5.) Get Involved In An Online Game - Another great boredom buster is to get involved in an online game! PPT offers a wide variety of these kinds of games in their ‘No Nutrional Value’ forum; I highly advise you to take a look at the varying competitions and participate in a few!
6.) Write For Pink Ink - The last, and most fun in my opinion, is to write an article for the Pink Ink, PPT’s official newsletter! You can write pretty much anything you want; an entertainment review, a Neopets article, ANYTHING! Why don’t you go check it out now (link to Pink Ink when ‘now’ is clicked) and join in the fun?
I hope that I have provided you with some good ways to prevent boredom in this holiday-free month. If you have any other suggestions, I’d love to hear them! Private message Ziggy on the PPT forums!
