Things To Do While Under Quarantine

In This Article:

Everyone has been affected by Covid-19. For some, it means they are unable to work or go out and do what they normally would. It can get a little boring at times. But I believe there's something we could all do in our lives to stay busy and forget about everything going on for a while.

1. Deep clean your home.

JeShoots

Scrub the corners, dust fan blades, throw out/donate unnecessary belongings, and of course disinfect your surfaces.

2. Finish a book/TV series.

Freestocks

Now is the time to finally finish a series you love (without even procrastinating)!

3. Call your family and friends.

Taylor Grote

A phone call can do wonders for someone, especially if they live alone. Reaching out can make all the difference in the world.

4. Have a (safe) game night.

NCI

I'd recommend only having those who live with you join, or you could even do games online!

5. Enjoy some self-reflection time.

Ava Sol

Start a journal if you haven't already and record what days are like for you, how you're feeling, and what has changed. It will be a great thing to have to look back on.

6. Start learning a new language.

Syed Hussaini

Fluency in a foreign language is an incredible skill. You can find hundreds of resources online at your disposal.

7. Spend time on your hobbies.

Avi Naim

Do you like to write? Knit? Play an instrument? You have lots of time now to actually practice those hobbies!

There's so much to do out there. Whether the world is under quarantine or not, I hope you find time for these things in your life.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
