Do you have a hobby? A TV series, a comic, a a movie, a book that you like? Become a NERD! Embrace the entertaining world of nerdishness, research something that fascinates you in your spare time. Read about current news, the world is a fascinating place, even politics on a certain level is interesting. Try to think outside of what's in front of you, think about what's not wholly connected to you. Find a remote island on Google Maps, root through your old childhood possessions to relive memories, go out stargazing. There's a whole lot of stuff out there that tells you that life doesn't have to be boring.
