Hey!
I live in Canada and I'm teen. I've been through a lot of stuff with my friends over the last few years and I always try to give my insight into their problems (sometimes even when they don't really want it lol).
I've realized that over time I have accumulated a lot of questions about moving on, so if you have a question about that, lay it on me!!
I don't think that ratings matter, and that you should choose someone to trust your question with, that will answer it with care, but show you what the world really is and wont sugar coat it.
I hope you guys find my advice helps, hope to talk soon!! :D
Angie

well, usually when people tell you to get a life, they are kinda mean, and don't really have lifes themselves, but it's good that they inspired you to try and do new things, so I guess theres an upside to the insult.
Well I think the first thing to do, is figure out what you were doing when people told you to get a life, were you talking about starwars! Or doing extra math homework? Or something that "popular" people would consider weird?
Now I'm not telling you to quit doing the things you love because they are "weird" because thats not being true to yourself, but I think taht you can incorperate the things you love with the things that other people love too.
So what can you do to cure boredom? Well turn off the computer (you're probably like darn, now how am I going to occupy my time) and make a list of twenty times in your life when you were difinetly not bored. Maybe it was when you went skating with your best friend. Well go down tot the rink (assuming you don't live in california lmao) and join a skating class. You will meet some new people and have something to do each week. Do that a few times (if its in your price range) and try and figure out what kinds of clubs you can join around school or whatever.
Now assuming you are old enough, get a job. But don't just go to mcdonalds or the chicken place down the street. Find something that you would actually enjoy doing! And try to apply there, you will meet new people and make money. Plus you might be having some fun!
Then go down to your local animal shelter, or home for mentally and physically challenged people (etc) and start volunteering. This is a great way to get social interactions, and help in your community. You will be able to meet some other volunteer workers too.
Then start reading the newspaper, and watching the news on tv. This will get you informed on things going on in the world. I know that this really doesnt have anything to do with getting a life. But it's good to get one thing everyday that is educational, and you'll find that you can bring things that you read/ see up with people rather than saying that you have no life, they can actually listen to you and figure out how to do things that you already know how to.
Then set regular goals. A goal can be anything from getting your room clean by wednesday to writing a book. And with each big goal comes little goals, like writing a chapter or a page or something like that. Soset goals for yourself everyday (or follow through with the goal you already set the day before if it isnt done yet) and everytime you achieve a goal take a quarter and put it in a jar beside the book you write your goals in (oh did I not mention that before, write down your goals!! That way you can look back and look at everything you accomplished, well almost everything).
Make "to do" lists and check off the things you do. And if anyone ever tells you to get a life, stop hanging out with them, why should they care what you do in your spare time? It's your life right? So you can do what you want with it. And your oppinion of fun, is deffinetly different than lucy or joe or franks (lmfao) right? So they can't judge your life. And if they do then screw them. You don't need people who make fun of you!! you'll be making friends at skating and work and volunteering. (lmao remember those are just examples if you HATE skating dont force yourself to do it lmao)
I hope I answered your question, thanks for picking me to answer it, and I hope you find somethings to occupy your time and have lots of fun doing it. If you ever need any ideas or have more questions, you can always ask me. Sprry for taking so long to answer. Good luck!
Love ya,
