    I have a job but only work the bare minimum of 20 hours a week and now that all my friends are on the verge of returning to college I'm thinking I'd like to do something to occupy myself from now until I go to college next year. Anyone have any ideas!? How do ah's people spend their days and evenings if they don't work or go to college!?

    Was thinking that too, had to read the post again, he means NEXT september.
    OP, have you considered looking for a different job, maybe something that would be related to what you'll be doing in college?

    Join something like a sports or hobby club. Maybe learn something new. Do a night course or distance learning course or something.

    Write the Great Irish Novel.

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    How I get through long winter evenings has been the same for about 4 years:
    Lift Weights
    Read a serious amount of books
    Watch all the deadly HBO series again (The Wire, Sopranos, Oz etc.)

    Enter a reality show competition.

    Then even though you might be a complete waster and plonker ,and that might help, you could be a celebrity overnight and give the 'fingers' to your college friends.

    That's the way to roll these times man.

    I'd recommend looking into poker, it's a great way to spend time and if you get good can supplement your income, you can begin by playing for very little or no money and progress over time, then there's all the reading and studying of the game that you end up wanting to do, it'll definitely hold you over till next september

    So passe :cool:

    Crystal meth or krocodile is where it's at.

    Personally I'd think about taking a vow of silence for the year and see how that goes.

    Try to beat the world record for having the most peddles in a day.

    Young Brazilian lad had 45 I believe, God rest his soul.

    You can do better, with the right training.
