Boring Work Day,
Even the title is boring you out right? I know. I am. Right now.


Every once in a while, when your work is done, nothing need to be filed, no job due, files have been taken care of. And you sit on your desk with your computer screen looking at you, you start looking at the clock, and think "still got many hours to go". What to do? 

So, in the spirit to make this day better, I decided to compile a list on what to  do in a boring work day. 

1. Music - I can't live without this at office. Listen with headset (not to disturb others), tune up some upbeat music, this recipe help keep me awake at work.
2. Snack - I know this habit could be bad if what you're snacking are fried chicken and burger, try to snack some fruits like strawberry & apple. I like strawberry, they're small, taste sour and sweet, amazing little fruits with so many vitamins.
3. Internet - Now this is must be done carefully, you don't want your boss to think that what you do is surfing and browsing all day. You can browse the internet up to 5 mins or so, longer than that your boss and co-workers will think of you as lazy. And try to avoid an eye-distracting web, like youtube, etc. 
4. Smartphone or tablet or Ipad - I found gadgets are really helping me stay awake especially back when I don't have an internet connection on office computer. I can surf, watch movie, listen to music, read books, play games, chats, tweets, etc etc etc. If you don't have one, buy one, or at least borrow one. 
5. Books - If you are a reader like me you can read books, but if you don't like reading avoid this option, it will just make you drowsy. 
6. Study - Because I'm taking Korean Language lesson, so nowadays when I feel like nothing to do I open up my korean books and start studying.
