The Coronavirus has ruined plans for almost everyone. Basically, the only thing people can do during this time is stay at home and somehow entertain themselves. You can only binge watch tv shows and movies for so long which is why I’ve come up with a list of ways to survive and thrive while social distancing.
- Update your Spotify playlists/Discover new music/Listen to a new podcast
-
- Go through your closet and decide what clothes you can donate or get rid of
- Clean your makeup brushes and anything else you haven’t cleaned in over a month
- Play old video games
-
- Get rid of your thousand unread emails
- Start planning next year’s spring break trip
- Color in a coloring book or paint on canvases
- Learn the latest tik tok dances
- Play board games or card games
- Have yourself a spa day: do face masks, paint your nails, take a bath
-
- Read a book
- Get ahead on schoolwork
- Update your resume/LinkedIn/apply for jobs
-
- Make string bracelets like you did at camp in elementary school
- Update your phone/laptop, bucket list, and agenda
While now can seem like the perfect time to meet up with friends and to go to your favorite brunch place, it is very important that everyone is distancing themselves from others and staying home when possible. Hopefully, this list can help keep you busy while you are stuck at home. Try your best to enjoy this time and stay safe everybody!
