I don’t know about you guys, but the whole having to stay inside thing has been driving me nuts, and it’s been very hard for me to not lose my ever-living mind. I’ve come up with a few things to district myself

“Let Go” Plates

During this time, we all have plenty of time to reflect on our lives, and things we’ve been through. Get a plate and a sharpie. Write down things you need to work on, fix, or any worries you may have on that plate. Then, go outside and smash that plate to represent you “letting go.” I did this with a friend of mine, and it was an amazing feeling

Cook

Food has always been on our minds during times of not doing anything. Find new recipes, and try new foods you never have before. This is the perfect time to do that! We have all the time in the world it feels like, so branch out!

Get into new music

I have seemed to get really tired of listening to the same music over and over every day for the last week, and I’m sure there’s more out there experiencing the same. So, find some new music to listen to! Maybe a genre you didn’t think you’d like, give it a try and I’m sure you’ll end up finding a new favorite song in the process!

Bible Study

Spending time in Gods word is so relaxing and can open your eyes as to what is happening in our world right now. Reading the bible and studying the Gospel will provide an outlet that won’t only distract you, but grow your relationship and faith in Christ.

Exercise

I know, the more you want to exercise, it seems as if you grow to not have enough time. But, there’s no classes, no hanging out with friends, no shopping, nothing. No excuses now! find a new workout routine to get you ready for the day this whole mess is over with.

At the end of the day, this isn’t a fun time to be a student. Try your best to remain positive! It is gonna be a while before the world around us feels normal again, but we will get through it. I promise you that!
