I have too much free time.

You're probably thinking to yourself, "well, what's the issue?" It doesn't seem like a problem at first, but I think the statement that too much of anything is bad for you holds up to time as well.

Most people I know have the opposite issue (i.e too little or no time), but I haven't experienced that in quite some time. Heck, ever since I joined college, the amount of available time I have to do anything has grown significantly. Even with life's shenanigans and the several hobbies I do, I still find myself with too much spare time on my hands. That's why I wanted to come on here and see what recommendations people have to help me find something else interesting to do.

Find a woman, you won't have any free time then and you'll make a thread about how you wish you had free time.

Honestly, find something academic to study beyond your course curriculum. Maybe you're interested in philosophy, okay start reading some Kant, Nietzsche, Wittgenstein. 

Exercise! You can kill hours with this fantastic activity that benefits your health.

Spend more time hanging with friends, even doing mundane activities. (moving, supporting a bad breakup, etc.)

Invest some time in understand finances, including the stock market, it will help you tremendously in the planning ahead.

Take a drive! Gas is cheap again, one of my favorite hobbies when I have time for it.

1. I'll probably find someone later, but I'm patient. I won't mind waiting.

 

2. I started working out seriously since August. At the beginning of august I was barely able to do one shoulder press at 70 pounds. I can now do 150 pounds seven times, so I'm very happy to see the progress I've made.

 

3. I'm always around friends and family. I like to keep time for my social life and time for myself

 

4. A friend got me into stock recently. It's interesting to know how economics work. I'm not an expert, but reading up on it has explained a lot of things I didn't know before.

 

5. I like walking more. The feeling of an autumn breeze as you walk on an empty path and relax in a park is one of my favorite feelings. Really makes me appreciate the suburbs
