Boredom kills the soul

There seemed to be something missing during this period of time. Is it the lack of things to do? Or is it the excess of the things we want to do? It seems a little ironic how we hoped to be able to have fun, enjoy and play whatever we desire after our exams, yet when that opportunity arrives, the repetition of these actions begin to bore us, similar to how I felt when I was studying. Not that I'm speaking of my dislike of studying (I prefer to gain knowledge and utilise it everyday; studying, as perceived by Singaporean students everywhere, seems more of a hassle), but sometimes it can be true.

Apologies if you thought that didn't make sense. I hope you'd understand what I meant though.

Personally, I would be able to answer both questions with a 'yes'. It seems to be that there is something lacking in my life right now, just because I've been doing what I wished I could do just before the examination period began.

Thankfully, I can 'find solace' (hurhur, it is not really a very depressing moment for me now) in my schoolmates and of course the Legion of Mary, who never fail to provide me with a very joyful experience in my daily life. Of course my family members do play a part in that joy-giving.

I wrote this post today not because I just felt like it, but because I needed a platform to share my experience to whoever can find this page, and of course there was really nothing I could do. I mean, what else can you do at home other than playing the game you played almost a hundred times over?

Boredom kills the soul.
