My life is boring.
I'm not sure that "be" ... "be'o" is the best way to get the
reference to "mi"; ie, referring to _my_ life in to the second
place of "se lifri".
Unless you're being formal,
{lo mi se lifri ku to'e cinri} is perfectly fine -- it's equivalent to
{lo se lifri pe mi to'e cinri}.
You can fill in the x1 place if you want, but I would expect people to typically understand the simpler option of filling {se lifri}'s inner quantifier, and understand it quicker -- the only other reasonable interpretation would be "life around me is boring" (in some vague causative sense, that you *make* life boring).
