A list of things to do during the quarantine
to keep sane and occupied! here are some ideas:
do yoga or pilates along to a youtube video
yard work if you have a yard
if you have potatoes in your house, you can easily plant new potato plants by cutting their eyes out.
dance furiously around your house
start that show you were looking forward to! two shows i like that are available on amazon prime are good omens and fleabag.
google a list of the 500 most iconic movies and make a watch list of the ones that interest you
start reviewing the movies and shows you watch
read old books you liked as a kid
see if your library is connected to overdrive (it probably is). overdrive allows you to check out ebooks and audiobooks from your library.
try a readathon—read as much as you can in 24 hours
play a new game on steam or nintendo online. you can start a farming co op on stardew valley with your friends!
watch a livestream of the monterey aquarium!
play online multiplayer games like trickster hearts and skribbl
watch game streams on twitch
check out my self care tag for more ideas
make a scrapbook with stuff around your house
cook a comfort food or dessert
cook something complicated or create a new recipe
make a stop motion video with stuff around your house
make an escape plan for the zombie apocalypse (for fun. this is not a real thing)
make random top ten lists (top ten songs by your favorite artist, top ten street foods, top ten movies influential in your life, etc)
find ask games on tumblr and write down your answers to the questions in a journal or word document to read years from now
write a letter to your future self
and much more! there’s an online class for everything
call your family and friends
register to volunteer at crisis textline. volunteers work remotely, so you can do everything at home. if you are selected you will complete a course to learn how to be a crisis counselor and then work as a crisis counselor
see if there is any way you can volunteer remotely
make nice cards to send your family and friends
research the best charities to donate to
establish a routine (exercise, mealtimes, work time)
keep in contact with friends and family through video calls
create events for yourself (for example, playing an online DND session with your friends every friday at 3pm)
