Learn something new!
Top 5 things to do while you are stuck at home in quarantine! The first thing you can do when you are stuck at home is try to learn something new. This is kind of an obvious answer, however, I think that it is an important one. If you become dedicated to the thing you are trying to learn then it can easily start taking up almost all of your free time. Safe to say you will never be bored until you master it! Personally I have been putting more time into learning music production. I have done so for over a year now. With the free time I currently have, I am trying to expand my knowledge and understanding of it. It helps me come out with better music in the end.
A buddy of mine has gotten into photography. He has really wanted to do it in the past, however has never had time for it. But the quarantine life has sort of forced him into starting to learn about it to kill his boredom. He has been doing it for a couple of weeks now, and says that he really enjoys it. I asked him about what camera he is using and he uses the (GH5 4K Digital camera). I personally do not know too much about camera equipment, or even photography in general, but he was really convincing about how good this piece of equipment was. It is nice to see that he found something that he really enjoys doing.
Check in with old friends/family members
Here is something that people often forget. In the midst of our busy lives, we forget to check on the people close to us. Now would be the perfect time to do this, sense everyone is indoors anyway. Why not make a call to that family member that you have not talked to in a while, or an old friend who you have not seen sense high school. Aside from the fact that the person would probably really appreciate you doing this, it is also a great way to pass time and learn things about each other. You can talk about hobbies, or anything they are interested in. The main point, is to try to stay social with the people close to you, that can help get over any boredom you are having sense you are stuck at home.
Play a new video game
Have you been putting off playing a game that seems very interesting to you, but you just can’t be arsed to get started on it because its sooooo complicated or there’s just to many things to follow? Because same. However, now might be the perfect time to pick that game up and become and epic gamer, such as myself. All jokes aside however, learning how to play a new game can be both very time consuming and fun. The perfect mix for it right now! To be honest this is a great way to pass time in an entertaining way.
Aside from watching YouTube videos on the game or some kind of play through this could be your other source of entertainment. Personally I like playing multiplayer games, sense it is more fun communicating with people online then playing something single player, however I do also see the appeal of single player games. If you do not have a headset for gaming and communicating with your friends or people online I suggest checking out our video on the Astro A-50s. It did pretty well and we gave a lot of pros on why this is currently one of the best headsets on the market. If you want to purchase it you can get it here.
Watch a new show
This kind of goes together with the first point of playing a new video game. Its in the same sphere of entertainment, but slightly different. If you are not an avid gamer then you probably spend more time watch TV shows then you do playing video games so i figured I would throw this in here. Almost everyone I know has been binging at least something. This helps them take their mind off of the whole lock down thing. I am not going to go in depth about what kind of stuff you should watch, or movie/show recommendation, sense that can be it’s own blog, so let me know if that is something you are interested in.
Start a YouTube channel!
Running a YouTube channel can be very fun. If you are reading this then you probably have considered starting one at some point. If you are a social person that is lacking social interaction during quarantine then starting a channel might be the right thing for you to do, sense you can talk and express your
emotions on the internet. Personally me and my brother have had a lot more time to work on our YouTube channel which is called twins reviews.
The best way to go about starting a channel, would be to find some things, that you enjoy. Learn about all the different influencers that cover the same sort of topics you would like to cover. This might also help you establish connections with people like yourself and that can open up the door for collaboration projects and support in the future.
