    When I'm not in college and at home during weekends all I basically do is play videogames and browse the net for sports/world news. I'm getting fat and lazy... this is very bad. Do you guys have any idea what I can do? Thanks.

    Also, if you guys know of any good forums (such as this one) where people talk about sports/games/movies/tv stuff, it would be helpful. Or a game I could play that I could download for free (not talking about the cheap flash ones though). Thanks!

    Yeah, that'll help.

    Here's an idea: Meet anyone. Be it at work, or at school, or anywhere.

    :D

    It's kind of hard to meet and relate with the people here... culture differences and such. Maybe I'm just being lazy but hey...

    Yeah I'm being lazy :(

    Get over it. I moved around my entire life. If you don't think I was self-concious in those moments, you're wrong. Just overcome it. Realize you are a stranger. If one doesn't like you, you'll never see them again. Eventually, you'll find a group.

    Again, work and school always help as far as that goes, but if your jobless, just mingle.

    That's what I want to know.
    Maybe Mexico City. :cool:


    During hunting season, of course I do that every weekend. But I am also in college. And when it isn't hunting season I ride a bike, I lift weights, and I run. There has to be a movie theater around.
    Since you're complaining about being fat maybe you can do something about that.

    Find a gym and start working out. After a while you will get to know the people who work out at the same time as you do.

    I'm stuck with the same problem. AFter a 24/26hr shift I feel too tired to go out , and so I don't do anythign but play some PC games, watch tv and eat...eat and eat. :(

    I need to get back into my going out life, starting to get kind of depressed.

    24 on...48 off. 1 night where I don't have to worry about waking up the next morning.

    Uprising, what kind of work do you do? I wouldn't mind a life like that. Whenever I find a job I make sure I can work 11 or 12 hours a day. But I'd rather do 24 hours straight and take 2 days off!

    You can try photography. It'll get you out of the house and it can be very satisfying.
