15 Things to do When You’re Stuck Home Amid the Corona Outbreak!

‘I’m bored!’ How many times have you felt and thought this in the last 3 days? I have lost count for myself! With being home to ensure safety and good health, comes the unlimited amount of time you have on your hands now. Here’s a few things you can do to NOT waste all this time you have!

  • Learn new recipes – cooking is as fun as it is time consuming. Take out that recipe that’s forgotten on a shelf and put it to its right use!
  • Complete that task you have procrastinated for SO LONG – yes, you know what I’m talking about! Do it, right now, you would not even realize how quickly it will be done!
  • Start an in-depth cleaning spree! – you’ve been looking at how cluttered and messy everything is, but you have put it off because you have more important tasks outside of home, right? Well now that you’re home bound, buckle up and start cleaning space by space!
  • Take an online class – do a short course, or learn a skill online. Maybe an instrument or drawing, or even calligraphy.
  • Host a themed movie night – call in all your friends, or family and take out all the cozy blankets and pillows. Set up fairy lights and watch your all-time favorite movies.
  • Self-care night (or a whole day if that’s your jam!) – whip up the face masks and massager and hair care products. Give your body the full pamper sesh that it so deserves!
  • Have an indoor picnic – set up your living room as a picnic spot, spread a sheet have some juice and make a whole tiffin you can carry from your kitchen to your indoor picnic spot! Change it up so you don’t feel gloomy about being home.
  • Start a project (big or small, doesn’t matter) – maybe a DIY project or maybe just a passion task you couldn’t take out the time for before is EXACTLY what you should be doing right now!
  • Host an English tea party for fun – who hasn’t dreamt of having a fancy tea party in their childhood! Well now is your time to live that cute little dream.
  • Have a sleepover that you couldn’t otherwise because of your busy schedules – all your friends are now doing exactly what you are – being bored at home! Make plans for a good old sleep over, play board games and have a fun karaoke and everything else you love to do at sleepovers!
  • Make a fancy meal, set the table and go the extra mile JUST FOR YOURSELF! – set out your nicest cutlery and serve up a great home cooked meal (includes microwaveable pasta if you’re lazy :p ). Light a candle put on your favorite music and enjoy your me time.
  • Plant seedlings – planting little seedlings and watching them grow every day is one satisfaction nothing else can give you. Create a little garden if you may, or just a few plants, everything you give back to the nature is what it gives right back to you!
  • Declutter and clean your closet (ah, finally enough time to do all of the closet!) – tired of being able to clean just one shelf at a time and messing it up by the time you reach the second one? Well now you have all the time in the world to do a full-fledged clean!
  • Create a scrapbook – scrapbooks are a lot of fun to make, you revisit all your memories and look at all your pictures. Make one so you have something lovely to look back at every time you think of your past years!
  • Redecorate your room, give your room a 360 makeover! – being home 24*7 is going to start hating your room or make you sick of it! (NGL that’s what I’m feeling right now!) Shift your furniture a little, add décor pieces and spice up your room if you don’t want to do a full-fledged room transformation.
