Always checking the clock

It's been awhile...life has been crazy.

So, I get stuck sometimes watching the clock and waiting for it to move a little faster.  This often happens when I'm sitting in a class that isn't interesting or working on a dull day.  I wish I could get out of this habit and learn to let time move as quickly or slowly as it wants.  I do realize that if I don't focus on it, time will move faster.  I simply need to engage myself in the subject at hand or in interesting thoughts and ideas when I'm feeling these waves of "boredom."

I don't consider myself a person that get's "bored;" I can always find something else to do.  But, this is not the case when you're stuck somewhere you don't want to be, so there's nothing to be done about it.

Any suggestions? I may just have live through these moments of "waiting" and learn something from them; it's just very frustrating sometimes.
