What's Wrong...?
I am supposed to be perfectly content. I have a lot a good friends, get almost-perfect grades, am reasonably pretty, pretty fit, and 100% bored. I have nothing to do. I do a beach clean-up every weekend, take art class, have honor society, do drama club, and do spelling team. I will start tutoring young kids next month. It just isn't satisfying. I know I should be happy, and I am, when I do these hobbies and am at school. When I get home, I just want to do SOMETHING. I want to go out, and be with my friends again. My family and home is nice, but it doesn't content me. I feel the need to go to a party, or go shopping or just something outside my house. But I feel as if I'm under house-arrest. I can almost never go out spur-of-the-moment, and am stuck inside with nothing to do. Homework and projects take all of 15 minutes. I feel like there's a huge gap where SOMETHING should be, something important, something that would make me the happiest person on Earth. I used to want to be pretty, and thought that would make me happy, but it doesn't. It's fine, but just... not enough. Help please?

You're question only leads to one thing- you're growing up. I'm guessing you're a teenager in high school and you're feeling the urge to leave home. You want your independence and to be able to go off and do whatever you want. I completely understand that.
Today in my assembly at school there was a quote read from some movie that was like "All of a sudden you feel the drive to leave home. Suddenly you realize that this place to put your stuff doesn't feel like home anymore. You're longing to be in a place that doesn't really exist." and that's exactly what your question is about.
I felt the exact same way- until i went to boarding school. You get to be considerably more independent (depending on what kind of boarding school you go to, i guess) than you would at home.
Or if you're not a Christian you could become one- get involved in a church. Because there really is a god-given vaccum inside our souls that only god can fill. It's like god can only fill that detraceable emptiness inside you. I'm not a christian because i believe in premarital sex, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't be one!
The stuff i just said might sound stupid and lame but it really is true. you just have to learn to accept it over time like i did.
i hope you find something that brings you joy and i hope you can go to a boarding school.
:D
