<human>: Can you summarize the given text in a few sentences?

So last week I got into a car accident. My car is totaled and the insurance company didn't give me anything for it. Luckily my college semester was over, so I didn't miss any school. Another plus is that I live about 10 minutes from work (walking distance).

I don't have quite enough money in my savings account to go to school and buy a reliable car (and I'd rather stay away from loans). So I've decided to take the next semester off so I can simply work and save money for a more reliable car. 

So for the past week I've been sitting around my house doing nothing productive. I spend my days playing Zelda and Skyrim, watching Dexter and Breaking Bad, and browsing Reddit (no offense). I also work about 20-30 hours a week either in the mornings or evenings.

I would like to do something productive while I have all this free time. Like maybe build something or learn something practical. I have friends I can call that would give me rides to places, and a few resources within walking distance:

-A Convenience Store

-A Drug Store (where I work)

-A Big 'Discount' Store

-A Dollar Store

So what are some of your suggestions?
<bot>: I wreaked my car, have limited transportation, took next semester off, and I want to do something productive. Suggestions?
