The only reason people get bored is if they keep doing the same things all over again, as if it's all a routine. I'll admit, driving gets boring sometimes especially when you take the same routes, or that studying and getting so-so grades gets boring when you don't like the subject matter, etc.
The cure is to break the cycle like others suggested. Run away with your GF for a while, like impulsive planning lang ba? Trip lang, to get something different.
If you want to ask me, I'm not bored, I've already planned our long term plans with my wife so there's always something to look forward to, at least for the few years ahead. Then plan the small things together, so it won't get bored and you'll keep looking far up ahead into the future.
One other cure, is to get frustrated at boredom. You'll eventually get frustrated at it, if you're sensitive enough to notice it. If not, you're stuck, that's why you need to recognize it first, which I think you just did.
