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.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
