4

hello!
So, I havent written anything on here in like forever, so I have decided to recreate one of my favourite blogs from my myspace days....I find that it is still applicable to life!
It is the holidays, and i have nothing to do. Boredom has become my worst enemy, but also the thing I seem to do most! In conclusion to this problem, I have decided...I wish I was 4 again!!


If I was 4, I would never be bored. The holidays would have gone on forever, or seemed to, but I would not have even one second of boredom. Instead, I would have maybe got one of my toys out. Now, if i was 4, my toys would include a few unclothed barbies and action men, because I have lost all of their clothes. Or perhaps I preferred them in their natural state. Who knows; the 4 year old mind is a strange place. Or I would play with my teddies, perhaps making them be my pets, or maybe playing vets. I was never one for dolls, but I would maybe play with my fisher price kitchen and cook my mum an imaginary omlette. Or some spaghetti. Or chips and ice cream.Or what about my duplo! With my duplo, I could create an entire house! Or a zoo! Or even a doctors surgery. That would fill the time. If it was a nice day, I could go out into the garden and play in my fisher price red and yellow car. There was always a place i needed to go in my car.

but even if I was bored of all my toys....

There was always so much else I could do!

like-

going around all the bedrooms in the house, stealing every blanket, duvet and pillow, and taking them under the table. I would then arrange them into a secret den, and pretend I was camping, or living in the jungle, or in a cave.
or I would go and find a large box, and pretend I was a sailor in a boat, or a driver, or something else involving box like object.
or go into the garden and catch some bugs, and pretend I was a bug doctor.
Or paint the windows with mums moisturiser.
or go into the garden in my underwear and pick flowers for my bedroom, then take them upstairs. they were dandelions, and I left them in my underwear drawer.
Or go into the kitchen and play the drums on mums saucepans.
Or play mums and dads with my little sister.
Or play cowboys and horses with my sister. I am the cowboy, obviously.
Or play make up, in mums bedroom, on her lovely cream carpet.
Or play hide and seek with daddy.
Or go for a ride on my pink bike with streamers and stabilisers.
Or decorate the walls with abstract crayon drawings.
Or something else using my extensive imagination.

But I would never ever be bored.

So if you will excuse me, I am off to find my mums moisturiser, and after that, find a large box.
Ahoy captain.....
