America is now a month into a shutdown; schools, restaurants and bars are all closed. There’s no sports for the foreseeable future, and to some it feels like the sky is falling. Well I have news for you: Life will go on, no matter how boring it gets. 

So with all this free time you have your first thought is probably, “What do I do now?” Well you came to the right place because today I will be giving you ideas of how to pass time during your quarantine break. So, with that being said, let’s dive in.

Make Sure You Have Supplies

Number one make sure you have enough things such as non-perishable foods, Lysol wipes, and toilet paper so you can be okay at home for a while without leaving the house. It wouldn’t hurt to get cooking supplies either so you don’t have to get take out from a place that might be contaminated. This alone could take up a whole day due to the supply not being able to keep up with mass demand. 

Time to Binge Watch

Have you been wanting to watch “Better Call Saul” but haven’t had the time? Well now is your time to shine. Get on Netflix and finish that show you’ve been wanting to watch. Want to prepare for season 8 of the Clone Wars? Well there’s no better time than now to watch seasons 1-7. If you let yourself fall down into the depths of the Netflix abyss, the coronavirus will be gone in a jiffy.

Watch Old Sports Highlights

To all the sports fans out there desperately needing to watch their team play, look no further than YouTube. Just google your team and I’m positive there will be a video for you to watch. Whether it be postseason highlights, a blooper reel, or Stephen A. Smith yelling at Max Kellerman, there’s plenty for you to watch to pass the time. 

Become an Epic Gamer

Whether you’re getting that diamond in MLB The Show or completing the battle pass in Fortnite now’s your time to get on the grind. As a gamer myself I know how quickly the hours can wither away when you’re getting crushed for hours on end in Call of Duty. Corona can’t get to you if you don’t leave your room the whole day because you were busy playing 2K. Be productive during break and cement yourself as a gaming legend.

Catch Up on Sleep

Life can be stressful, so when you get an ultra-long break like this take advantage and regain some sleep you’ve been missing. Been having to worry about homework for 4 AP classes? Deadlines are now more flexible, so take a break, kick back, relax and get some sleep. 

Hopefully this helped you pass the time during your quarantine. These are tough times we’re living in right now so do what you can to stay positive. However, the most important thing you should do to pass the time is to STAY SAFE. While that may not eat up hours like Netflix does it should be priority number one. Stay healthy people, and enjoy your quarantine break.
