When I'm bored I like to read (but that's a given) and do art. By "art" I mean doodling or drawing. It's a lot of fun to doodle random designs on a semi-small piece of paper. I like to start in the middle of the paper and then branch out, just building on top of what I draw. Using a small piece of paper can be nice because it doesn't seem quite as intimidating as using a large piece.

Topping!
Also, when I'm bored, I like to meditate. It's a great time-passer and stress-reliever.
All you have to do is get into a comfortable position and close your eyes. No, you don't have to cross your legs and say "Om." I mean, you can, but it's not necessary. Then all you do is be nothing.
Literally. Be nothing.
Forget everything - problems, events, anything.
It's so hard to explain; all I can tell you to do is to be nothing. You just clear your head completely...and enjoy the silence.
I could meditate for hours upon hours...
