Think about how interesting you might find it to have a closer look at stars during the night and late evening. You might end up having a different perspective of stars in general to see them in a way you haven't seen them before, especially in person and LIVE. You might end up noticing shooting stars, and perhaps occurrences in the sky which are harder to notice without a telescope, and perhaps even see without one.
To analyze occurrences in the sky, and significantly far out in the sky is something that you might end up looking forward to, perhaps even on a regular basis! There are various reasons you might want to use a telescope. For one, it gives you a different way of seeing stars in person. Also, you might notice certain constellations more easily which you may have heard about before, such as the "Big Dipper". Perhaps you'd even want to gather information about possible observations you'd see with telescopes. One considerable idea is to keep a notebook of these and perhaps put them on a blog so other people with this interest may see, and perhaps share theirs as well.
Habitually checking out the sky and looking out for things which may spark curiosity in you could simply be a way of finding boredom relief. By trying to figure out what's going on, you may find yourself having an increased interest in Astronomy in general as well as a greater appreciation for it, if you've had little to none of it already.
Another consideration is that you might end up seeing a planet such as Mars or Venus. Also think about how it might be to get a closer look of the Moon. Something significant about Mars are the claims of possible past and/or possible present life there. If there's any truth to these assumptions, than you'd be actually witnessing another planet besides Earth that did and/or does contain life.
Evaluating the sky, and basically maintained overall curiosity about space and the Universe in general are possibly the very roots of Astronomy, and why certain people have had enough motivation to use technological advancements to further find out more about what occurs around us. Perhaps you might find something interesting in the sky that ought to be addressed to experts about Space. There are different kinds of telescopes, so you might want to do at least some research before making a purchase!
