Loneliness can be stressful, and when campus students find themselves alone in their hostels, they often resort to a variety of activities just to amuse themselves. Here are some crazy things students typically do when they are home alone:
1. Walking Naked
Since there is no one to criticize them, most students tend to make full use of this privacy by walking naked. It feels very liberating because you can do all this without any restriction in your personal space.
2. Acting in Front of the Mirror
Many students, during moments of boredom, reenact scenes from favorite movies in front of the mirror. They get into character and recite lines, laughing at their own performances—finding solace in their acting skills.
3. Music Video Reenactments
A student normally picks up a deodorant container and acts like his favorite rappers, reenacting the music videos. They perform the choreography and hold their mini-concerts within the privacy of their rooms.
4. Silly Selfies
Making funny faces and taking selfies is a usual activity. At times, some even take semi-nude or funny photos, then delete them right after. Clearly, this is such an obvious sign of boredom, but it is a fun way to amuse one’s self, nevertheless.
5. Picking Their Nose
This might sound a little disgusting, but when alone, some students pick their noses. They even play with what they find there, entertaining themselves in ways they wouldn’t dare to do in public.
6. Observing Their Bodies in the Mirror
The time spent alone allows students to have a good look at their bodies. Both girls and boys are afforded enough time to stare in the mirror at and look closely at their private parts-an interesting but very common activity.
7. Sleeping
Probably one of the most uncomplicated ways to break the tedium of being bored is sleeping. If there is nothing to do, then sleeping acts as an absolute getaway, something by which one can detach themselves from the environment for a bit.
8. Fiddling with Their Phone
They find themselves scrolling on social media, playing games on their phones, or doing something else like endless scrolling. When the social media becomes boring, they switch to games or some other apps constantly wanting something to keep them occupied.
9. Eating Out of Boredom
When not hungry at all, students raid their fridges to snack on whatever they find there. They drink a lot of water or other beverages, if not to satisfy the thirst, then to do something at least.
10. Playing Loud Music
Blaring music on full volume is a favorite pastime. Feeling the bass and getting lost in the favorite tunes is a treat for the students and they create a mini-party type atmosphere in the hostel.
11. Looking at Their Privates in the Mirror
This solitude affords a child time to properly inspect his body. Girls, just like boys, fondly gaze at and scrutinize their private parts before the mirror, an inquisitive but normal behavior.
Conclusion
Though these acts may sound weird or funny, they are regular activities for students who can get through the loneliness and monotony of being alone in their hostels. Such moments of privacy offer a chance to be themselves freely and be comfortable with their own selves. So, the next time you’re all alone in your hostel, just remember, you aren’t the only one doing crazy things to keep yourselves entertained!
