Boredom
Boredom is defined as the state of being bored. Bored being a dull, repetitious, or uninteresting person, activity, or state, according to the english dictionary. Dull and uninteresting are uninteresting are all words that are open to individual opinion. this therefore means the only constant to boredom is repetitiveness. This means the as humans we can only take so much of routine. Do the same thing over and over sooner or later becomes boring. This is relevant also to things that may be be routine in particular.
There are things we do at a random set place. These are people we see, checking our social networks and regular recreational activity. We may not have a set time and place to do these therefore we do not realise how repetitive they are. A good example is Facebook. As people discovered Facebook they become so hooked on it that there were on it 24/7. This resulted in people later claiming of "being bored of Facebook".
Entertainment is the certified cure of boredom. it is created to rid our lives of boredom. How then do we proceed when entertainment becomes boring? We move from Facebook to twitter? And when twitter becomes boring, to Instagram? How long is it until we get nostalgic and miss Facebook? I find myself bored surrounded by all sorts of entertainment and interaction but I am still bored. How do i cure myself then from this state? I know someone will most likely say try something new. When people say this, they don not wait to think about accessibility, yes in another life i could go try sky driving or snow boarding.

Something in the air
So you chilling with a couple of friends, and another one walks in. As soon as they walk in, you realize that there is a change or scent in the air. Unfortunately it is not a welcome change, it is more odor than scent. You do not make a big deal of it and before you know it, you cannot smell it anymore.
Over time you realize every-time you meet that friend they have that odor. You also realize that it is shear sweat. So how do you play this one out? You are not in a position to tell them to invest in roll-on without offending in. There is also a possibility that they have roll-on but they are either resistant to it or don not use it . Any ideas on how to deal with what in the air?

Paintball
I always wondered what it was like being a soldier. The
adrenaline of being in battle is unimaginable. Upon realising I was not joining
the army anytime soon or being an action hero I thought I would never know.
This was until I went paintballing. Paintballing is an affordable, fun and safe
way to get your adrenaline pumping while playing with guns. Although it does
not have real guns, there is an immense sense of excitement and power. So you
can round up your friends, break up into teams and go to war against each
other. You can pick from various battlefields depending on how intense you want the battle to be. my personal favorite was the jungle one with no barricades,just trees and grass. it gave a real feeling of war. So you should take somee time and check it out.
