What To Do When You're Locked Out

Hey Guys:) So today I finished Sixth Form at 2:45pm, I walked home happy as ever until I got to the door and thought 'ah damn', I'd forgotten my key. I personally blame my dad who was apparently meant to be working from home today, so was in when I left the house in the morning, meaning there was no need for me to lock the door, but then when I got home he wasn't in. I didn't get into the house until 5:45pm, that's 3 whole hours spent locked out in the cold English weather and I didn't have a coat or jacket, not good! I know this happens to a lot of people quite often,and it's soooooooo annoying, so here's a few things you can do to keep yourself entertained if this ever happens to you...

1. Text your friends non stop so you're not the only annoyed one.

Lets face it, we're all human beings, so we all feel a bit better when we know other people are slightly suffering as well. Your situation may still be worse than theirs, as all they have to do is ignore you and do something else, but you'll surely have fun for a short while.

2. If you have Internet on your phone stalk people you hate on Instagram and laugh at how silly they are, and then complain about how rubbish your life is at the moment because you can't get in your own home on Facebook. 

Lets face it, Instagram is always useful for passing time, and looking at how awful all the slags in your year look in their 'selfies' is fun where ever you are. As for complaining on Facebook, sympathy status Likes are always nice, right?

3. If you have a dog, walk it.

This is what I did. It was actually quite a fun walk because in my mind I knew I had nothing better to be doing at home. However it was very quiet as my iPod was in my house D:D:D:

4. Pick leaves off the trees and try to peel them to make fun pictures.

I found this quite tricky, so it kept me entertained for ages as it tried to make the perfect star out of a leaf. 

5. Find some sticks and go around hitting things to make tunes.

This made up for me not having my iPod as I simply made my own music and secretly I actually found this really fun and I want to go out and to it again (shhh). I think my rendition of 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' was pretty good actually;)

6. Try and build a fort from chairs and gardening tools you find in your shed. 

It didn't take me very long to give up on this idea as it was a complete failure, but if your imaginative and good at DIY I totally think this idea is worth giving a go! Just don't drop a chair on your toe, it's not fun, just saying.

7. Call your sibling up and make them talk to you for half an hour.

I don't think my sister was best pleased by this, but I wont see her for a while so it's fine she wont be annoyed with me. XD. 

8. Take your own 'Selfies'.

Ironically of course. But let's face it (see what I did there cx), when isn't taking photos of yourself pulling stupid faces fun? 

9. Every time someone walks past the top of your drive laugh hysterically.

You'll get some proper funny looks I can guarantee, buts it's absolutely hilarious. Hopefully it's only strangers or people you know really well that walk by, or that could be awkward the next time you see them...

10. And if all else fails you can always try and watch TV through your neighbors window. 

Jokes, I didn't try and do this. But if you really are the type of person who cannot go half an hour without watching something on the TV I recon this is worth a go. (I just watched YouTube on my phone:P) 

So there we are, now you know what to do when you're locked out so you don't die of boredom. Comment below of what you do when you get locked out, or if you have any fun ideas to help us all out. For now, Goodbye my friends!
