Recently my life has gotten not only predictable, but extreamly boring. It is my senior year of HS but I could care less, and every day seems to be the exact same as before. I wake up and shower, eat my eggos (buttermilk of course) half ass my way through my jokes for classes. Get home and sleep until dinner. Eat, play around on the computer then go to bed. Even when messing around girls that a decently attractive I'm just so uninterested in my life and what I am doing.

Never really felt this way before, its kind of like im stuck in dgaf mode. Any advice on how I can get a little more excited about waking up in the morning? Honestly any tips crazy or not might be useful, sense im going off to college soon anyways im open to pretty much anything.

Plan stuff with friends? Just playing on your computer all day will lead to this apathy, I'm a junior in high school and I've honestly had to tone down a lot of activities just because of all the stuff happening (schoolwork, homecoming, journalism, girls). Try setting up events, even if its as simple as getting five people together and seeing a movie.

Get a part-time job. Create deadlines for yourself. Waking up in the morning with a, "oh fuck I have to do x, y, z today," feeling is more productive than a, "fuck I should just roll over and go back to sleep," feeling.

I strongly believe that high school students should pick up a part-time job at some point during their 3 years. You learn how to balance work, school, and social life and it packs your schedule up a little more, motivating you to move quickly and with purpose.

Personally I feel I perform better academically if I have less time to study, because then I'm forced to optimize my study time instead of procrastinating and dicking around.

Yeah, either jobs (although that could be boring for you too) or a big club or sports team. Anything really, just get involved.

Try exercising daily, going on your computer less, and sleeping during the day less. Go pick up a hobby. Read a book. Hang out with friends. Get up early and make yourself a different breakfast every day, just to throw off the monotony. Get out of your comfort zone and try something new. You've probably heard this many times, but in order to change your life you have to put effort into it.

Where I live we have a taco bell, and safeway so its kinda hard to do some fun stuff. The weather is cooling down so soon more stuff will be going on. Its just right now everything seems so boring to me. I job probley is a good idea, ill likely put an app in at the Safeway as a few of my friends work there so that wont be to bad.

Also i alredy got accepted into U of A so im done with my apps.

stay the fuck away from religion....seriously, stuff is poison to a growing mind. Go to Ted.com and listen to some truly brilliant people share some knowledge, go hiking out in the wild, go smoke a bowl.

The smoke a bowl thing, that's key. It makes the boring...not, so boring.

I blame the eggo's - nothing starts my day off worse than dry, tasteless frozen waffles.
I recommend something else.

Yeah if you get a job and busy up your day you will appreciate having free time.

Also buy stuff off ebay. Waiting for the package gives you something to look forward to :D

Start waking up more earlier everyday. The less you sleep, the best it is for your moral.

Also, start training for something crazy, a marathon for instance. An Ironman if if it's not enough.

Go on trips whenever you can. Nearby hills/mountains for hiking with buddies, rafting, carting.

Whenever I change the location I'm staying, it fills me up with so much energy that the effort of doing it is really worth it.

I think it's more along the lines of the earlier you wake up after getting a good night's sleep, the better it is for your moral.
