I am bored for the summer break any advice what to do?

I just sit at home and do nothing all summer and i need advice badly for something i could do. something fun, doesnt cost a whole lot, or an activity. i can rule out baseball soccer or driving because i need a couple of months to get one. so if you come up with some cool ideas type them and since i have no other choice being the lazy bom that i am i will gladly take your advice. THANK YOU!!:)I am bored for the summer break any advice what to do?
Try taking up either Karate or Yoga, both will keep your mind and body sharp, and who knows by the time your summer break is over you will really be someone think about chess also, as you will be able to give very good exercise to your brains. The body and mind the more you use them better it becomes. Either Karate or Yoga will instill a lot of patience in you which will help you to come up in life.I am bored for the summer break any advice what to do?
Don't know where you live, but if you want to do something fun and constructive I'd suggest voluntary work. In England there is a company called Vitalise (look on internet) that run holidays for disabled people. They have a skeleton staff of nurses and care workers, but then they rely on volunteers, and try and pair up one volunteer to every guest. They have 5 centres around the UK. You spend a week (or longer if you want). You get paired up to a disabled person for the week and help look after them. If you're a bit squeamish or new to care work they'll put you with someone only mildly disabled, who only needs minimal assistance. You basically have a free holiday. Your accomodation and food are paid for and you get free excursions to cinemas, theme parks, coach trips etc. (you're just assisting a disabled person in having a fun holiday). They have themed weeks depending on what you fancy (cinema weeks, horse racing weeks, music weeks, fishing weeks, beer weeks-visiting breweries and pubs!) The hardest week is the 20-35 year old week (or something similar) where you go on pub crawls and go to night clubs etc. Sounds fun, but you can't go to bed until your guest does and you have to be up in the morning at 7, to help get them up and dressed. A lot of people have to do it as part of a course (nursing students/ duke of edinburgh etc). A lot arrrive really nervous but then leave in tears because they've had such a great week. Give it a go (or something similar). You've got nothing to lose and it always looks good when applying for jobs. Good luck.
