Things to do in Quarantine

Updated: Jun 6, 2020

Just in case you are wondering if I also come in that category where I'd suggest you to change yourself and become an alien by dyeing your hair or umm...face then don't worry. I WONT SUGGEST THAT KIND OF BUSINESS.

WHY?

Because I regret doing mine.

Of course I won't tell you if it was my face or hair. Why do you even care?

Moving on, i was thinking to write a new blog post this morning while laying in bed with a hair brush in my hand (no, I wasn't brushing my hair in that position. I am not talented.) And suddenly my mom rushed in my room and said,"get up and do something you slothful little $#@!*" Cant disclose you the hidden word. Well, it's a mom-daughter thing which might sound offensive to you.

If your brain starts working the moment your mom yells at you then hhuuzzaahhh you are a lucky one. I finally got the idea to tell people what they should do to have a productive quarantine while literally laying in bed and doing absolutely nothing. Well except playing with a hair brush. After all, everything is easier said than done you know?

Let me start the list with my favourite thing which I had been doing from the past 3 months.


You've got some great time in your hands. So, keeping that in mind and give yourself some good sleep.


in addition to whatever i said, kindly don't have this misconception that I am suggesting you to sleep all day. This was for those who don't get enough sleep while working. Not for you who sleeps 15 hours a day, dreaming about your shitty anime characters.


This might sound funny, but try spending a few hours by keeping your body in super slo-mo mode.


Not only will it increase your patience level but also it will trigger someone around to beat you up.

Fine! it is funny but at the same time, dangerous.

I won't do it.

Because I don't want a black eye.

But you can beat them in return.

Did i say something about violence? nah.


sing your heart out.


Its the best possible way to kick out that frustration. And also, who knows you might become the first person to receive a death sentence by your own family.

No offence.


Train your tongue to twist like a pro.


'Brisk brave brigadiers brandished broad bright blades, blunderbusses, and bludgeons—balancing them badly.' For this, you really have to learn to balance your tongue on your teeth.

If you master it, then you may be having the highest possibility to win your crush"s heart. Or your enemy's.


Do those crazy steps!


If you are the one who hesitates to dance in front of eyes that aren't yours then this is the best time to show your hidden talents.

Yeah buddy move your body like a snake!!

Did i just say a snake?


Try learning origami.


It brings back old memories, I love it! Also, your house will become happier with a little decoration.


Complete Star wars.


Before watching it I used to loathe it. But now I feel like another person. Go now and watch it, its really that good.

I highly recommend you to watch it in this series - Rogue one-IV-V-II-III-solo-VI-VII-VIII-IX


Give a shot to freelancing


This is the best time for you to get paid for all the amazing talents you have on platforms like upwork, fiver and freelancer.


Become a chef.


You don't have to be the best in town, but give your taste buds the taste of your own cooked food. You'll be proud even if you fail to bake that cookie well.

Furthermore, you will be well prepared when your dad kicks you out of the house. At least you wont die of starvation .


Watch those oscar winning films.


Come on, watch every single one of them and see if they were really that great or not.


Fix your house.


Get your lazy ass up and start working. Your kitchen pipes need a plumber like you. And yeah don't forget to set those spice jars the right way. I can see that ranch dressing on your stove. Who's going to clean that?


Practice shuffling cards.


Learn it so well that you can finally call yourself a pro.

Your family will be really happy to see you work at the casino stations once they open up.


Master your typing skills.


Its better than doing absolutely nothing. And it will definitely save your time while replying to yours emails.

So go on and use your internet to find an interesting online typing course.


Give time to those which needs a lot of it.


Finish your Les Misérables or watch heaven's gate. They neeeeed time and I know you've got lots of it.

Can't find that book I just mentioned? Its on the shelf behind you.

Still cant see it? oh yeah how could you? you are the one who doesn't read books.

And hey you! if you found it then trust me you'll find a bag full of gold under your bed one day.


Take notes from Rapunzel.


Well obviously I am not going to tell you to run away with a thief you fell in love with, but you can surely learn and see how she spent her time being locked in a tower.

Let me give you some instances because I am 100% sure you are not going to search what she used to do.

I know you.

Activities included in her ditty were ventriloquy, candle making (I failed making this and I even spilled the wax in the fridge. That was a horrible day. My back still hurts.), Papier-mâché and adding a new painting to her gallery.


Fill your journal.


Yeah its about time.

With experience, I am telling you that pen and paper can be your best friends if you want them to be.

P.S. - They don't care about your handwriting.

And even if they do, we cant hear them. Its great right?


Do some skin care.


Give your skin the treatment it deserves. Also, its a great way to make it even more amazing as you are not going out anymore and so those pollutants are at bay.

I cant assure you that your zits wont come back again to say hi to you once you step out. After all, they are your best friends.


Make a beautiful or "your kinda" photo album.


Turn on your laptop and print all those crazy, adorable, funny, beautiful and what not moments to make the best photo album in the world.


Train your non-dominating hand.


I know its not that important but it'll be way more fun than resting your body on that bed all day.

After all, you don't discriminate between people than why give only one of your hands the supreme priority to destroy your future? do it with both the hands.


Here comes the best point.


Binge watch from your favourite streaming giant's free trial.


There was a time when we used to think we don't have enough time to binge watch a show. And now we've got lots of it.

So go on and buy a one month free trail of your favourite streaming service without having to pay a penny.

Dont miss a single show.

And do watch locke and key.


 

You are still here?

look at the Simpsons, they are way ahead.
