Stare at this picture for ten seconds. Don't think about anything else for these ten seconds, just stare:

Did you notice that in those ten seconds you were actually happy? It's because you took your mind off the problem. That's all you gotta do, just take your mind off your problems!

Lately I've been feeling very down (due to girl troubles and exam result worries) and I am also bored of what I currently do to take my mind off things and I want to try something new so maybe it will take my mind off my troubles more effectively then what I currently do

So I am wondering if any fellow Escapist members have any activities, music, sites, films, games or anything that would be good at taking my mind off things.
You're a good friend of mine so I hate to see that you're having troubles in your life. Before I start suggesting things though, I'll address your concerns.

Every guy has girl troubles, even the ones who don't seem too (as they're less likely to have the skills to commit to a long term relationship). I don't want to generalise, but if you're like the majority of people on here, you're smart, quiet and talented or enjoy things that others see as nerdy. That's who you are. Nothing is going to change that. I don't have a girlfriend either, currently working on it, but I haven't let it get to me. I'm young, I have my whole life to get into a meaningful, long term relationship with someone who likes me for who I am. If I don't find her for a while, so be it. I'll enjoy my single life while I can because I'll never have it again. Please be patient, you will be alright eventually.

As for exams, from what you post I get the impression you're a very intelligent person, so please don't worry about exam results. Exams often tend to turn out better than people expect, especially if they worry about them. And who cares if you didn't do as well as you expected? Sometimes it happens, but you're going to face setbacks like that in life at some stages and you'll get past it, kind people like you always do.

As for new things, I'm going to shamelessly peddle the things I like. Whenever I feel a little down I read Peanuts comics, because their lives are always much more screwed up than mine.

Lucy: You don't understand girls do you Charlie Brown?
Charlie Brown: No I guess I don't.
Lucy: And when you grow up, you probably won't understand women either! Somehow, I find that very funny!
Charlie Brown: I'm hysterical...

See? He's worse off than you lol. The other thing I do is listen to classical music, so here's a couple of very relaxing pieces I hope you enjoy.

I hope that helps. You're a good person, I hate to see you down on yourself. You'll be fine, I'm sure of it.

You are a very nice person and an intelligent one too. It was a few months ago and I was feeling really down and I decided to cut the girl out before I got hurt and I got the grades I wanted so it all turned out alright. So I guess I was being paranoid and over thinking the matter

I learned that I don't really understand girls because when I see a problem, I should solve it. While the girl I was trying to be with, would not see a problem at all and this lead to a massive amount of problems when we talked about anything. It actually got me to appreciate being single and the freedom it has

Good luck with your girl too, I hope it works out for you as well. Tell me what happens in the end, I find everyone's story to be interesting and you being a good friend, I am even more interested

Also those pieces were really beautiful thank you for them ^-^

Oh and I take it you re quite the Snoopy fan, what with the avatar and the reference

Love. Lots and lots of love.

And cake.
I'm feeling the same way right now and cake sounds good.. wonder if i have any to make.. My stupid phosophical mind doesn't like letting me shift away from the ever-present things, like her.
