think!. think past what is, and what was!. think to what could be!. of what!? anything!. everything!. all!. none!. part!. some!. look past what is in front of you!. hear past what people tell you!. feel beyond what is hard or soft!. keep going!. do what you think needs to be done and dont only do what is easy!. why!? why does life have to be intersting!? you do something every day that is interesting!. you dont think about it, but isnt it amazing just to be alive the next day, after letting your subconscience take over!? isnt it wonderful to be able to think and feel something!? dont take for granted what you have just because you dont realize you have it!. and, of course you dont have an answer for what you are going to do with your life!. you havent lived it yet!. the only way you are going to know is if you have lived it, and you know what is going to happen next!. take life one day at a time, while looking forward to the next!. think about the future, but only live today!. if you stay in the future, you miss the present like you have already missed the past!.
i hope i helped you a little!.
have a wonderful day, and, as the saying goes, stop and smell the roses!.
and, if it makes you feel any better about my answer, i am a 13 yr old!. even if you think about my age, listen to my advice, or at least give it a chance!. just because i am the age i am, does it mean i am wrong, or do i have the possibility of being right!?

Read the Bible, New Testament first!. I recommend starting with the Gospel of Mark!. I became a Christian almost 30 years ago and my life is far from boring!. Find God's will for your life!. Look for a Bible-believing church with a college/career group!. The purpose of life is to get to know, serve and glorify our Creator and Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ!. Here are some Bible verses to look up: Romans 3:23, Romans 6:23, Romans 5:8, Romans 10:13, John 3:16, Philippians 4:6,7,8; Proverbs 3:5,6; Psalm 32:8!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
Find a bigger purpose!. Travel to places where they don't have the comforts of parents!. Join the peace corps (going totally against the above) and see what it's like to want more and not be able to have it!. Travel always makes life more interesting and perhaps you will come back with more meaning in life to have some motivation and keep interest!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
Start by finding out what you really really like to do!. What captures your interest!? What are your skills!? Do you have a hobby!? Even collecting old paintings or unusual chinaware is a hobby that can lead to other possibilities!. Are you good at sports!? Caring for people and/or pets!? Follow your interests!
There's a book with the title, "Do What You Love the Money Will Follow" and it emphasizes doing what you are most keen on!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Chances are overwhelmingly high that you will become nothing in life!.!.!.just like the rest of the 99% of the population!.
IF you were going to do something significant in life, contribute an amazing benefit to humanity or contribute insight to further knowledge…you would already be on the road to it!.
Don’t worry, you are in perfect second-rate company with the overwhelming majority of the people who go to an unfulfilling fulltime/part-time ‘job’ they loath, come home to some horrible screaming spouse, partner, mate, significant other, life friend, family…whatever you want to call these creations of mediocrity (including the person that comes home to them/it) and just watch the clock on when their life is going to end!.
Boring people are boring because they are boring!. They have done ZERO with their lives because they are too scared and/or too lazy to challenge their limits (and no, I am not talking about stupid ‘extreme’ activities like bungee jumping…that is just what I call ‘lazy danger’!. You don’t do a whole lot to put yourself in harms way!. It would be much cheaper and easier to just play chicken on the railroad tracks!.)!. Most people are too scared to ‘fail’!. Here is a tip!. Talk to a successful individual in whatever they deem to be ‘successful’ and the first thing they will tell you is that they failed not once but several times before they were able to be where they are today!.
YOU are boring because your life is a reflection of who you are!. Not interested in school!? Wow, be prepared in saying the words ‘would you like fries with that!?’ for the rest of your life!. An education doesn’t guarantee success but it does teach you to think…that is unless you take ‘philosophy’ course!. Philosophy teaches you to think and but to do nothing with it but to think some more!. Here is my analogy on that…if Einstein thought of the theory of relativity but didn’t write it down, publish it and have it presented to the world…he would have been nothing more than another clerk working the rest of his life in pure anonymity!. Instead, he applied himself to learn!. The RESULT is a man who contributed vastly to mankind’s intelligence!.
So, are you seeing how lazy you are yet!? Are you stupid!? I don’t know you but chances are extremely high that you are both!. You are no different than what is plaguing the ‘young’ (20yo and 30 yr old’s) generation…you’re just F’ing lazy to learn!. Because you are lazy, you have no goals, you have no ambition and you have no idea what you want!. All you want is someone to hand sh!t to you without working for it!. You want ‘excitement’ without responsibility!. You want to be ‘special’ without doing anything significant!.
I am pretty sure that reading this angers you!. That is another problem with today’s social climate!. People cant take criticism anymore and use it constructively!. They just get defensive with ‘You don’t know me!. You can’t judge me’ etc etc etc!. Well, here is a tip: I CAN and WILL judge you!. And whether or not I criticize you, I am going to not tolerate self centered behavior and attitudes because I KNOW people like you!.
Want to do something interesting with your life!? How about start by being interesting!? Pick up a classic novel, investigate things that remotely interest you (F*ck, even tree rings could be interesting if you like it…I know I can make the most mundane things interesting), build something with your own two hands, etc…just be more exciting than a worn speed bump in the back part of a parking lot!. Have an informed opinion about something so you can have intelligent exchange of knowledge with another INTELLIGENT (not some f’ing depressed suicidal emo) person or group!.
It isn’t hard to be interesting!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

A problem well stated is close to the answer and your really are about to get the answer!. First admit that the majority of people are like you!. seriously!. that should not make you feel better but to let you know that you are not all alone!. However, plan for the following week, for the coming month and year ahead!. Know how many spare hours you have in a day and see what you can do with it, something different and within your financial limit!.
Then, plan traveling to other countries or parts of the region you are leaving in if you can not afford traveling!. Most importantly, you need a partner and good friends!. It seems to me that you are feeling lonely!. Make friends and see how they are making a living!. We are all the product of the environment and they are there to help you!. Do not take the challenges of life by yourself!. Listen to your parents and see what they want you to do!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
