How To Spend Your Free Time?

If you're bored at home, don't despair! There are plenty of ways to entertain yourself and waste time making the clock go faster. All you need are some simple supplies you can find in a backpack.

Doodle in your notebook. Doodling is a great way to waste time at home. You can draw things like geometric shapes, crazy designs, or whatever you see outside the window. You can even color your drawings in with colored pencils or markers.

Make your drawing interact with the binder paper. Have a worm poke out of the binder ring hole, or a stick figure climb up the blue lines like a ladder.

Make origami with sheets of notebook paper. With origami, the possibilities are endless. Tear out a sheet of paper and try making an origami crane, an origami heart, or an origami turtle. You can even make your own origami wallet.

Most origami designs are made from square sheets of paper, so you should turn your binder paper into a square first.

Draw a fake tattoo on yourself with a pen. Write your name on your wrist or draw a symbol like an arrow or a heart. If you like henna, draw a fake henna tattoo on the top of your hand using a pen instead of actual henna ink.

If you need design ideas, look some up on your phone, or print them out before class to be more discreet.

If you want something more subtle, draw a fake ring on your finger. It doesn't even have to be your actual "ring finger."

Make a collage with sticky notes. Make the collage on a sheet of paper, the front of your notebook, or on your desk. You can make different shapes with the sticky notes or do rows of different colors. When you're finished, you can draw on the sticky notes and rearrange them, so they turn into a puzzle!

For example, you could arrange the sticky notes in a square first, draw a picture, then take it apart. Try to put the picture back together again.

Draw on the nails with a marker. Fill all nails with the same color or mix and match colors for a wilder look. You can also draw intricate patterns on your nails with a black marker.

Use a marker, not a pen. The color of the pen on the nails is not very good.
