Hobbies to Test While in Quarantine

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Pitt chapter.
Playing Piano

This can be a challenge if you don’t own a keyboard or piano, however there are online sites to make beats like this online sequencer.

Painting

Relax with some art! No canvas? No problem — try alternatives like cardboard or the walls.

Deep Clean Your House

Now is a great time to spring clean your entire house considering the current pandemic.

Gardening

Work outside and enjoy the unprecedented quietness.

Meditate

Clear your head everyday with a guided meditation or by simply sitting outside and breathing in fresh air. If you feel spiritual, try converting to any religion other than scientology!

Take a Walk

Take a walk around campus or Schenley Park each day. Remember to keep a six- to ten-foot distance from any friends or strangers.

Learn “Settlers of Catan”

This requires two weeks to learn — perfect for your quarantine!

Knitting

The most extreme sport out there: knitting. If you’re just learning, get ready to be frustrated for a week! If you already know the basics, try a new pattern and be frustrated for a month!

Write a Letter to Your Grandma

She will absolutely love the old-fashioned snail mail.  Tell her about classes, friends and that awful insomniac neighbor who blasts yodel rap at 4 a.m. walking around with pennies in their pockets.
