    What do regular people do with their time?

    I recently quit wow, and now I'm just bored out of my mind all day. Can anyone suggest things normal people do on a regular day? After 7 years of wow I just don't know. I already go to college and excersize, but there's just so much time to kill, I don't know what to do.

    Thanks,
    Staart

    I like to browse the internet, go through old cracked.com articles for fun, and a big thing for me, especially lately, is read books. I like a lot of different genre's, and I read three-four books at a time (It sounds like it might get confusing but it really does not!)

    Besides college, I spend my time on the internet browsing Reddit, MMO-Champ and playing Dota 2. I occasionally go out, and I translate articles from English to my language for money. In a month I'll learn to play the guitar. That's basically all that I do.

    Contact friends and ask what they plan to do and just go with them.

    Waste my time in the internet doing nothing

    Call my friends to chat and plan the day when we are going to go out together or if we are going to someone's house (Normally we end up in my house)
    For Example: I'm going to watch movies and play video games with my friends these friday and i'm going to watch another movie (Man of Steel) with a friend these saturday

    Take a strong stance on something controversial on the internet, then dedicate yourself to responding to everyone who disagrees with you.

    Enjoy never having enough time to kill!

    Also, you may lose your soul.

    Mostly I mess around online. I'm trying to learn how to be Catwoman on that DC fighting game, thats a lot of fun, but I suck.

    Read a lot of magazines..

    Watch the Borgias as GOT and Arrow is off TV right now..

    Chat to friends..

    My free time during the week is burned almost entirely with the following:

    - Running, cycling, lifting weights
    - Reading
    - Watching TV shows on Netflix
    - Playing WoW (PvP/LFR, so I have no schedule)
    - Posting on MMO-Champ (see post count)

    I basically prioritize those and go down the list. Have I done the first? Do I want to? If not, move onto the next. It's like a DPS rotation of things to do.

    Watch funny Family Feud sections on youtube.

    get a job and start learning for college. look for other hobbies, like sports (much more fun than weightlifting in a studio!). read a book. get a girlfriend. so many possibilities to "waste" time. :-)

    Browse the net, read world news, go to the movies or rent one. I also have hobbies, so pick up a hobbie, just dont spend all of your time on it or you will end up getting bored again.

    I read books, watch too much tv, do stuff with my friends; be it watch a movie, go for a walk, cook some food or some kind of sport. Do nothing at all while listening to music or ride my bike somewhere.

    You could also join a terrorist organization. They're always looking for homegrown terrorists. I guess that can be a little too stressful, though.

    Maybe becoming a serial killer is the way to go? No stress there, you're working on your own schedule, and if you're smart about it and don't follow any patterns then you'll probably never be caught... at least before you grow bored with the whole thing and decide to reveal your identity to the public through a series of grotesque, public murders accomanied by cryptic messages to the police that gives clues as to your identity.

    My girlfriend of almost 3 years broke up with me yesterday and atm I just feel dead inside since I loved her more than anything, so I'm not looking for someone atm. I would like to do a real sport but I don't know where to start. Regarding books, I don't mind reading but I'm not really 'into' it, I also have no idea where to start.
