Things To Do While in Quarantine
Sarah Mata and Olivia Cabrera
4/29/20During this pandemic we have not been able to go outside which may have some of us feeling a bit anxious and extremely bored at times. While we’re bored sometimes it’s hard to come up with things to do. We are all trying to keep our brains occupied so we don’t think about the negativity that is surrounding us. So, we've come up with some ideas of things to do.
Shows to Watch
There's more content on streaming services, Youtube, and the internet now more than ever. Many streaming services also offer older shows we're not familiar with, but are still good. Don't we all love the Office? Perhaps there are more hidden gems out there. Here are some I recommend:
2. Black-ish
3. Legacies
4. Friends
5. The Circle
Movies
In the same category, there are so many movies available as well. Here are some that've entertained me recently.
1. Gabriel “Fluffy” Iglesias: One Show Fits All
3. Clueless
4. Big
Books
Reading can eat a ton of time if you commit to it, you just have to find something that's interesting to you. Some recommendations:
- Becoming by Michelle Obama
- The Assassin Game by Kirsty McKay
- The Wizenard Series by Kobe Bryant and Wesley King
Podcasts
Podcasts and audiobooks are another way to learn something interesting and be entertained for hours on end.
Activities
- Spring Cleaning
- Social Media (Tik Tok, Youtube, etc.)
- Schoolwork
- Painting
- Drawing
- Crafts
- Gardening
- Coloring
- Organize/clean your room
- Try new makeup looks
- Play video games
- Have a spa day
- Play board games with family
- Learn how to play an instrument
- Facetime with friends
- Workout
Although not a complete list, hopefully this inspires you to try something new and make use of your time instead of suffering through boredom. Stay safe, Colts!
