So you've found yourself bored with nothing to do? Join the club. Here are 15 ways you can get rid of boredom this break.

1. Be a tourist in your own city.

So you’ve always wanted to climb to the top of the Empire State Building? Or walk the entirety of the Freedom Trail? Do it.

2. Cook something new.

And by cook something new, I mean by all intents and purposes bake some dessert. I’m eyeing this recipe myself.

3. Read a book.

Whether it’s a classic, the one all of your friends are reading, or something that caught your eye at the bookstore, this is the perfect time to spend some time with a good book.

4. Craft.

This girl never needs an excuse to start a new craft, but boredom seems to fit the bill nicely.

5. Write someone a letter.

Whether it’s sending servicemen and women holiday cards, or writing your roommate to tell them what you had for breakfast this morning.

6. Start a new show.

Winter Break is the perfect time to start that new show you’ve been wanting to watch forever! A.K.A., if you’ve never watched The Office, now is the perfect time to start.

7. Pick up a new language on Duolingo.

Duolingo is my favorite app. How else would I know how to curse in 17 languages? And also, enrich my knowledge of the world by being able to communicate with people of different cultures! (Hi, Mom.)

8. Go through old pictures and home movies.

As someone who sang more than they spoke as a child, and was the older sister of a nudist, these can be more entertaining to look back on than you remember.

9. Marathon your favorite movie series.

*Hedwig’s theme plays in the distance*

10. Start a bucket list.

It’s never a bad thing to have goals, even if it’s to finish a Vermonster by yourself, right?

11. Take a bubble bath.

Enough said!

12. Go outdoors.

Depending on your weather at home you can go hiking or skiing, or if you’re fortunate, swimming.

13. Clean your room.

Your mom will thank you later!

14. Go online shopping.

Your bank account may hate you, but your Spring Break trip will thank you.

15. Count down the days until you return.

I miss my friends, my school, Dhall mozzarella sticks, and the campus cat. Here’s to the last couple of weeks home until we go back!
