Think of something you have always wanted to do but for some reason have never managed to start. A boring Saturday can be the perfect day to begin an activity that will keep you entertained for many more days in the future. Start learning to play a musical instrument or try your hand at arts and crafts, such as knitting, crocheting, painting or woodcarving. Children and teenagers generally enjoy collecting objects -- from pebbles, shells, stamps and coins to more unusual things, such as business cards, place mats and clothing labels.
By volunteering, you can lend your support to a cause that is close to your heart or simply get involved with community groups in your neighborhood. This is a very good way of meeting people that live near you and perhaps making new friends, while also being useful in your community. If you enjoy the outdoors, volunteer at a state park near your home. Find opportunities at volunteer.gov.
Although nowadays people can easily keep in touch through the Internet and social media websites, a busy daily routine can make people forget how important it is to interact face to face with friends and family. A boring Saturday sounds like the perfect time to call friends you haven't spoken to in a while. In addition to having a good chat over the phone, you can arrange to see them sometime, thus avoiding another boring Saturday in the future.
If the weather is good, get out in the sunshine and fresh air and practice your favorite sport or activity. You can simply go for a long walk in your favorite park or explore an area that you don't know very well. If it is cold or rainy, you still can go to an indoor swimming pool or fitness center, where you can practice yoga, martial arts or any other activity available.
