    Well aren't those the cutest little animals!
    I have no idea what my boredom would be--- a "I have so much to do but don't feel like doing it" boredom.

    What I don't like about Yahoo is that some of their pages aren't visible on mobile phones! I'm taken to the main Yahoo mobile page. I will have to comment later when I get on a pc, lol. I'll edit this later, hehe.

    Oh too bad :( No idea it wasn't possible to access Yahoo with a mobile, not surprised... since it's Yahoo! LOL. Yahoo doesn't have the best rep nowadays...

    The baby Panda is so cute... :) Anyways, I can't make up my mind as to what kind of boredom I have. I think it is number 5.

    Finally I'm now on a pc and I got to view the page. I think I have experienced all the types of boredom except for number 4. The pics are cute, but the white kitten doesn't look bored at all! Lol.

    Haha, yeah, that kitten was just adorable :) I knew you'd notice the kitten the most ;) I think most people have experienced those types of boredom. Sadly that's not my biggest issue right now, I actually wish I had any time left for getting bored! Nowadays time is all I need, Sidney! :banghead:

    Yeah you're right, the kitten was the cutest pic among the bunch, don't you think? :joyful: You seem to be in some sort of hurry, so I am too. :depressed: I noticed that as an adult, we really don't have enough time now for everything right? Do you daydream whenever you do get bored though? I'm assuming you're quite imaginative as a Piscean is supposed to be. :D

    Omgg!!!1 Yes!!! Daydreaming keeps me going, lol. But yeah :) I love daydreaming... I actually like to dance around my room while listening to music when I'm really happy, and daydream a bit :roflmao::oops: I daydream when I'm wating at the doctor office... also whenever I'm waiting for something. I'll surely daydream while I'm sitting inside that plane for 8 hours straight (15 hours in total from my place to amsterdam) on my way to the netherlands :joyful: So yeah, I daydream quite a lot :D I'm guessing you do it a lot as well, isn't it?

    Yeah even when I'm sitting in front of the pc or watching a movie, even when I'm walking home my mind tends to roam and I actually look weird because I laugh suddenly and I'm not talking to anyone. :roflmao: Don't you just love having alone time in the privacy of your room? My Aries friend hates being alone and not being able to talk to anyone. I find her a bit socially dependent on other people's company.

    That sounds quite a lot like what I do :hilarious: Sometimes my day dreams are so vivid I end up chuckling in public, just like you do :whistling: I love being alone in my room too, actually I spend the best time ever there, lol. It's just we are introverts :thumbsup: I had a capricorn friend who couldn't imagine her life without having someone to talk to or go out every weekend, if that ever happened that would practially mean the end of the world to her :inpain: A very hard thing for us to understand, isn't it?

    Hahahaha! Yeah I can so relate! A lot of people have told me why I spend so much time in my room when I should be going out, and they think that it's boring. They urge me to go out. I do go out but because there's a purpose behind it, not because I need to be simply "out". They just don't understand that are minds are always busy imagining that we really don't get bored even if we are just at home. :smug:

    Are you choosy with friends, partners and people in general when it comes to socializing? I noticed that I'm quite picky in choosing people to really open up to, and if I don't like them, they won't really know, but you just don't want to keep the communication going once school is over or when you transferred to another office. Like they aren't for keeps. :D

    Yeah!!! I'm kinda picky, since I like to keep a small circle of really close friends around. Those friends are really close, some more than others, I just don't feel like being with peiople I'm not even close enough. But I know people who have ''friends'' just for the sake of having friends or having someone to go out with! By the way, do you like to go out with small or big groups of friends?

    I probably fall in each of those sometime, but not all at the same time.

    Among the different types of boredom, perhaps is number 5 the one that comes more often, followed by number one.

    You're lucky you still get bored :) I mean, that you still have time to do that. Yesterday I had to wait for a bit for the doctor, I was at her office... all I could feel was some anxiety :nailbiting: Which is weird, because before I only felt bored, is amazing how things change, isn't it? Is very interesting, going to the doctor was a very normal activity before, now is a scary and anxiety-inducing one :arghh:

    I agree, I also don't like hanging out with people that I'm not close with, it happened to me before, and I can't wait to go home! My friend just invited 2 strangers to go with us at the mall, and as I was saying that my mom would now like me to go home, she talked to my mom on the phone and said, "Your mom says it's ok for you to be out, what are you talking about?" So I was stuck with them, lol.

    I don't mind hanging out with a large group, provided that I know all of them and I'm comfortable with their company. I just don't like it when I'm around a bunch of people that I barely know and I'm not familiar with. That's why I don't like going to parties where I only know the celebrant, since I'm not sociable if presented with a large group of strangers. I don't mind hanging out with a small group too, the most important thing for me is familiarity. How about you?

    Well, I feel comfortable on one of one groups, that's how I feel comfortable the most, otherwise I can still do fine, but my preference is to go out only with one or two friend and the time. Other thing I dislike so much is going out on group date!!!! It gets so awkward when you do that, so that's why I prefer one on one meetings, but if I go out with a group of people I know quite well or we are even related then is great. Like for example when I know I'll see my cousins at a wedding in mexico city, jewish weddings are so errr social, lol. We all gather there and is nice! Good thing my sister never goes :roflmao:

    Ah group dates are dangerous! Exposing your SO to your friends is not a good idea, sometimes they go behind your back and try to flirt with your SO because they're attracted to them! Or they will have a crush on your SO. If they act on it, friendship totally over. So I'm not a fan of letting your friends mingle with your bf. He's not required to meet them anyway. Regarding friends, if we are walking as a big group then that's totally a hassle, I would like to keep it at around 6 people at the maximum. Maybe your sis thinks she's "too good" for your relatives. Is she married and does she have kids? She would probably be a bad mom. :roflmao:

    That sucks! I've heard a lot horror stories about ''friends'' like that, if someone di that to me... I'd consider the friendship over, then I'd be friendless :D LOL, but I guess that's better... sice sometiems having no friends is way better than having fake friends trying to stab you in the back! True strory!

    Believe it or not she is married :D She has two kids, but I feel soooooooooooo sorry for them, because she is such a narcissist that rather spends everything she can on designer clothes, shoes and bags than having some cashi ni her wallet so she can buy some candy for her kid. That's the way she is. She had to retire becuase her spine isn't well, so she no longer recieves the same quantiy of cash she did before. Meaning she spends less now, but before that.... uf!!!! She's spend a lo on designer stuff, holidays, new year eve parties with cavias and champagne... takeing her kids to private ballet classes and so on.

    Yes Trellum, I so agree because I can relate! Sad but true. :( :mad:. More recently, I found out that my friend's bf secretly likes me, no wonder he seems so nosy and wants me to tag along with them! As usual, my friend didn't notice again. I really don't like him at all because of his nosiness and he's not even my type, so she's lucky in that aspect, because if ever I did like him that much to risk the friendship, then I might follow my heart, but at least I will be honest about it. But I've witnessed and even experienced such incidents where a good friendship is ruined just by liking the same person, so now I will not introduce or mention any of my prospects to my friends to be safe. An unsolicited advice: Do not make your bf meet your friends! :nailbiting:

    Oh so is her hubby a nice person or is he like your sis? He must be condescending too to get along with her! The fact that she can afford to give their kids unnecessary ballet classes and designer bags suggests that her hubby might have a good paying job?
