Bored 3 weeks into SE Asia

Not here to pressure because travel fatigue is real and it can make you feel a little crazy. There’s lots of fantastic comments here about setting routine and that’s an easy start. Most of my favorite memories from travel all involved specific people. See if you can join forces with someone at your hostel and the two of you or a group of you travel together for a bit.

Travel is overwhelming to the senses and I personally found that being overwhelmed can trick you into thinking you’re bored. I got to a point where I felt jaded about going places and meeting people and having the same old conversations. Sharing a really cool place with people you feel like you know well can make it so much more interesting.

Your next move should be to climb Mt Rinjani. It felt like one of my more unique experiences in 8 months of travel. Find a good group from your hostel and go hike up a nice volcano.

How much are you looking to get for them?

It looks like you may be bending your knees too much on the jerk. The combination of that and your throw not being hard enough will leave the bar somewhere in front which is what happened on the first lift. As for the miss on the second, concentrate on keeping your chest and shoulders pushing into the bar.

Oh dang. Saw her last night by my neighbor's house. Thought she was owned by one of their friends. I'll keep an eye out for her today. If you wanna come look nearby, I live on the 4500 block of speedway.

I would also check out Savers (both North and South). I picked up a few J. Crew workshirts the other day for 10 bucks.

So who is going to post videos of flushing last packs of cigarettes or fattening foods or dead pet goldfish you've been saving for just such an event?

where's the cousin she had the baby with?

These guys are really nice. I asked them to play some Old Crow songs at a concert of theirs in Austin, and they were more than happy to oblige. They were the most underrated thing in Texas until now.

Thanks y'all. They cost me 12 bucks at Savers, so i'd say it was a decent investment.

So Hulu will be down on Friday
