Productivity: The solution to boredom

There haven't been any posts in a while, and I have finally thought of something that I should take down.

I don't know what to do when I'm not working at McDonald's and when I'm not sleeping. I used to play Xbox and record all the time but now I can't do that. I've been waiting to get a new computer, to get new stuff so that I am able to not be bored, but all this waiting seem like a waste of time. Shouldn't I have something productive to do right now? Things that I could be doing? Write? I would play more video games, but if I'm not recording or not playing with friends, it seems rather pointless. I want to do something that will be viewed by others, I guess.Not much I could think of.

I have been thinking about furthering my education, but I don't know what I want to learn. I'm interested in lots of things, but which one the most? Gaming, writing, acting, law, human analysis... How do I know which one is the best for me?

Trying to start a novel seems like a good start. I've enjoyed writing and I've just never pushed myself into writing a story with much length. If this fails? Well, I'll figure that out if I do. The problem is that if I get bored, or have writer's block while I'm writing, I may just stop writing the story. Bad news.

Going back to video gaming, I'd love to record and continue promoting my youtube account, but that will require my new computer. Perhaps also a new TV, HD PVR, and xbox. This is the ideal setup for my recording, but at first I could just do recordings on my computer. I never really got 'bored' of recording, so that is a good thing. I never really worried about whether or not my videos were that good or not, as long as I could get a couple likes on each video, at least I was entertaining some people.

Haven't come to a conclusion yet, but I do know one thing for sure: I have to find something productive to occupy my time. A project, a task, a hobby.
