by dunefurandlilypelt

--------

There comes a time in the life of every Neopian when they simply become bored. Bored. Such a terrible word, am I right? Well, I’m here to give you a bunch of things to do so you can get over that boredom or avoid it completely.

I came up with this list out of a mixture of boredom and inspiration, actually. It got me to stop being bored! So take my advice. Follow the liiiiiiiiiist.

Some of these things may not be new to you. But, even if they aren’t, maybe do them anyways and see if you have some fun!
