My collection of random thoughts...
~Contains random thoughts, Quotes, poetry, and God knows what else~
Contemplating boredom.
Boredom. As I've written before, it's one of life's greatest tortures...today, I've put together some questions for yours truly to think about, since I have nothing better to do...Drumroll please! *insert drumroll here*

~*+*~*+*~*+*~*+*~*+*~*+*~*+*~*+*~*+*~*+*~*+*~

Today's questions!

~~~Why do people call it boredom?~~~
---Is it because of the word "board"? Like, an inanimate plank of wood? Is it relating the feeling of boredom to a board? I honestly wonder...---

~~~Did it derive from Latin or something?~~~
---I don't doubt it.---

~~~Do they use this horrid feeling as torture in some cultures?~~~
---I hope not.---

~~~What's the word for boredom in Japanese?~~~---Apparently it's "Kidzukare" That word can also mean..let's see...*checks dictionary* Um...Boredom, mental fatigue, or worry. Fitting, is it not? Oh, and the word for boredom, literally, is..um...here it is..."Annyui." Yep.---

~~~What's the word for boredom in...um...how 'bout...Latin!~~~
---......I guess it didn't derive from Latin...heh, no translation for boredom.---

~~~If it didn't derive from Latin, where did the word come from???~~~
---If someone answers this question with an answer that at least sounds correct, I'll mark that person as my Idol. X__x---

~*+*~*+*~*+*~*+*~*+*~*+*~*+*~*+*~*+*~*+*~*+*~

I can't think of any more questions for now...another horribable result of my boredom.
Peoplez who read this, feel free to answer my questions, correctly or otherwise
Feel free to ask your own questions too. ^_^


I shall end this entry with a random saying of mine.
"Some call it Boredom. I call it Torture."
Ta,
__Kuro-Kami ~~~
