you like music? learn to play an instrument. you'll suck at first, but once you learn a few basics you'll suck a little less. some used gear from the pawn shop and some youtube tutorials are all you need.

Ive been wanting to do this for years. I am absolutely terrible on every instrument, and been kicked off the drums and guitar to be replaced by an 8 year old. Cant even make it through a Ramones song. However, I still want to do it. Ever use that Guitar Smith game on Xbox? One day I'll try again though...

I'd have to play Ramones songs at half speed to make them sound even close to decent. The songs are simple, but playing like Johnny is not.

All you need to do is keep trying. Learn to play lots of different types of music, not just what you like to listen to. I never used that Rock Smith game, but I've tried that app called yousician. It's kind of fun, but I didn't really see it teaching me how to play guitar as much as it was teaching me how to play a guitar video game. Like as soon as I turned it off, I wouldn't remember anything I just played and it gave me nothing to use to create my own stuff.

The YouTube guys like Marty Music, Justin Guitar and Andy Guitar all have tons of easy beginner videos and that's where I've learned the most from. I'd say try to learn the open chords, the minor and major pentatonic scales and power chords and you'll have enough skills to keep you busy for a while.

If you are going to school at the time, I seriously suggest just exploring a topic through the school database. Find something you are interested in and learn something new. Those databases like ebscohost rule.

tinder, film phone footy of your friends, write a story, start a journal, learn photoshop, see what your ex is up to, clean your coffee machine, craigslist a single-speed, call your mom

on music, a low end Squier fender can run you like $150, a yamaha copy even cheaper, match it with a practice amp, and learn tabs whenever the theory stuff gets boring. that's how i got into bass. jamming with a drummer is like bombing a hill or something - amazing

Work out , stretch , ice , eat healthy, don't drink , don't smoke. But you need a vice so purchase a premium porn account to keep your head on straight

I would say get a hold of a good supply of mushrooms or acid, that seems like it would be better than tons of masturbation.

All of these suggestions should be added to a base layer of constant masturbation. That is automatic.

same stuff you do when not injured, except skateboarding

Alright yall. 1 week into at least a month off as prescribed by the doctor. What are some good things to do other than kill myself?

Drink lots of alcohol and avoid water. Water is know to slow down the healing process.

I've been injured recently. Painted my house. I wouldn't recommend it but it won me some points with the wife. Use the time to lay ground work for future missions. Get shit done you'd normally procrastinate.

Smoke weed and chill. Netflix and YouTube

coming off a nagging MCL injury and extended unemployment...

Do: Rehab, music, creative outlets, learn to cook, photo/video, golf, video games, hike/camp, Netflix, reddit/slap, catch up with friends and non skate stuff you've been putting off, work, read, anything really. Just do something and get outside

Dont: excessive drugs and drinking, pile out, re injury, stagnate, get addicted to video games and TV, waste precious time, get depressed, feel sorry for yourself, get fat

Stay home all day, watch Scarface 50 times, eat a turkey sandwich, and have sex all fucking day. Then dress up like a clown, and surprise kids at schools. Then take a dump in the back of a movie theater, and just wait until somebody sat in it. Hear it squish. That's funny to me,it'll be funny to you. Then paint, and read, and play violin. Climb the mountains, and sing the songs that you'd want to sing.

Repeat until able to skate again.
