<p>The first weekend back was fun because there were plenty of events to go to and people stayed here. But now that week two has rolled around things have gone back to normal and 80% of the campus has fled the property. Out of my four good friends, 2 are working all weekend and 2 went home. How am I gonna survive 14 more weekends of this dullness? I am bored out of my mind. I can't afford to go home every weekend and don't feel that I should have to.</p>
<p>Transfer to a school with a more lively campus scene, branch out and meet new people (which would hopefully open up new events/activities), go to the local college bars, join some organizations or go Greek.</p>
<p>Go clubbin’! That’s what residents at my mainly commuter school do. I usually just do homework or go home myself.</p>
<p>Why don’t you read the entire Summa Theologica by Thomas Aquinas for the next few weeks? THEN you’ll understand what being bored means…</p>
<p>What you need is something you’re working toward outside of classes. A project of some kind – write a novel or construct something electronic or find a weekend volunteer opportunity – something that plays to your interests and strengths. If you rely on other people to keep you from being bored, you’re in for a lifetime of boredom.</p>
<p>You could get a job, at least you would be earning some money.
I live right across the street from a “suitcase college” and it is really dead there, too.</p>
