There are lots and lots of streaming apps available today, and we can't even seem to make a choice on the ones to be watched, or binge-worthy series online. But go on and make a choice, and get entertained!
Well, if you still got a lot more of spare time, then it might just be the perfect chance to learn a new language, and there are a lot of ways through which you can practice a new language online. An example is Duolingo, which can easily be installed from any app store.
There are lots of games available today as well - video games, board games, etc. It is surely an exciting activity building in Minecraft, and having interests in that new Animal Crossing game experience. This just means that if you are at home with others just like you, then it would be amazing to crack open a lively, thought-provoking board game. Whether its chess, or snakes and ladders, its a great way to pass time with others.
If you have always been curious about gaming, but you don't have all the kit required for an awesome experience, there are a lot of persons who stream themselves playing games.
You can find hours of gaming videos and other content on YouTube and Twitch.
While passing time at home, this would be a good time to look for your next favorite content creator. Or have you always seen yourself as a renowned spoken word artist…or a social media influencer or guru? Go ahead, for now is the time to try out something! Create your TikTok channel or YouTube account and get started!
One of the best things, and the easiest to be done as well on this list, is keeping contact with your buddies and friends, either in the same city, or in another part of the world. Reach out to them and see how it's going 'over there'!Even better if you love FaceTime, or you prefer DMs, or something that seems old school like a phone call. It is easy to keep up with the latest from a chat group of friends as well.
If you're a student, your teachers might have given you some work to be done from home, or you may be chanced to attend classes online, or might just wish to keep learning outside of school and your curriculum. The BBC Bitesize platform has a lot of educational and informative resources. Reading a book takes you on a journey; making you go on an adventure in another world entirely. Sounds like a nice plan, huh?
Sudoku, jigsaws, crosswords- you name it. Puzzles could help keep your mind active. It helps you challenge yourself while passing the time. Get some good puzzle books, or fin some apps, websites, and games made for that purpose.
Go on. Write down what's on your mind. Think of you as an author and pass the time while at it. Another nice way to express yourself is poetry.
If you've got a musical instrument somewhere in your home, go ahead and learn how to play it(there should be lots of online tutorials for it), if you haven't already. If you are already an expert at it, go on and create beautiful pieces of music; you've got all the time in the world.
If you don't maybe you should try singing. If you don't like to do it, you may sound embarassing to yourself at first, but with time comes confidence.
Staying at home all day long might mean not being able to go for a walk or to the gym. If you've got a garden, that would be nice to spend some time in, but if you crave some exercise, want to be physically healthy, or you want to burn some energy, then try to enlist yourself on an exercise regimen indoors.
Wouldn't you like to have a new hobby You could try anything, learn hoe to bake cakes, knitting, or even building AirFix models. Tutorials are avilable on the Net, especially YouTube on how to do pretty much anything. You might be surprised on the things you can do with some junk stuff just lying around the house.
Why not utilize all this free time you've got to give your home a wipe? Reorganize that room of yours, move things elsewhere to make some space somewhere - it will surely end up rewarding and helpful.
Some ingredients might be stored up somewhere, just lying around the home. Make a new meal, or spend some time doing something that isn't easy to prepare. If you would fancy a special treat, bake some goodies for the family to enjoy!
If you are lucky enough to have a garden or clearing close to home, why don't you celebrate the outdoors and build an accommodating tent for you all?
If you have got any worries on your mind regarding the past or after the pandemic, now would be the time to address it and work through it. Perhaps an online meditation course, or a yoga regimen would come in handy. This would help unburden the mind, while fending off any negative junk you might be holding on to.
For some fun, you could even get the pets at home involved in yoga!
Learning never gets extinct or old-fashioned. It is never a waste of time. A mandatory house arrest would be the perfect time to learn new things - without being bothered of having to go to work the very next day. You might want to sign up for a professional course - it could give you a potential edge in the workplace when the world comes back to its senses. Or try out a different niche - art, sciences, creatives, fashion, cooking, lifestyle, and much more.
The closet is one of the places that may never get completely arranged in the home. This is one of the perks of working a 9-5 job all week long. Picking a different outfit every day from the closet would surely result in a mess. Taking the courage to get the pile of clothes arranged and organized into their appropriate patterns would keep you wholesomely busy; you would be satisfied and feel accomplished at the end.
Getting your closet organized could even end up revealing some of the clothing items you thought were lost or missing.
You would begin to see your home in a different way and a different light, when you are in it all day long throughout every week. It may get boring to walk into somewhere in the home and look at the customary arrangement and display. A refreshing view would always be pleasant for the eyes. So go ahead and see how you can change the look of your apartment. A writer, Kelly Medeiros, would write, 'moving things around in the home is fun and refreshing'.
If you never had the time to plan for an outing with friends, take the free time and do just that. It would help to engage your mind. Cook up an awesome menu for a dinner party, make a theme for the party, could be all about club hopping, or wine tasting. Get the programme of events together, and draft a guest list. You could also surf the Internet for some perfect vacation spots, which would open your eyes and adventurous appetite to the awesome wonders of the planet.
For some individuals, clearing the space is synonymous with clearing the mind. If there are some items around that do not spark joy, either use the donate pile, or get rid of them. Gather things you may no longer have need for, and give them to the poor or the needy. Or just dispose of them.
