Hi everyone,
How have you all been doing? What have you guys been doing? What are you looking forward to most after this quarantine is done? To be honest with myself, this whole self-quarantine thing seemed quite relaxing at first but slowly devolved into me getting bored with everything at home.
When I first arrived home I decided to relax for a bit by binge-watching some new shows (anime mostly) and have gotten back into playing more video games since I can use my desktop at home instead of my laptop for school. I also reconnected with some friends through Xbox which was very nostalgic and fun. After I was content with having so much free time, I decided to be productive by cleaning my room, working out, and doing some work ahead of time.
Some of my classes did adjust pretty quickly into online classes and others are still learning how to use Zoom to this day. Most of my teachers are cutting back on work which I appreciate while one professor in particular however is extending lectures from an hour and a half to two hours. At least now I can watch the recording of the lecture instead of waking up at eight am every Tuesday and Thursday which I see as a plus.
To keep myself entertained for the past few days I have been trying out new things and finding new hobbies. Most of the hobbies I have picked up are either something I was interested in or didn’t have enough time for. One of the simpler hobbies I picked up was solving 3X3 Rubix cubes which I somewhat have gotten better at, but never fully mastered. Another hobby I picked up was pen spinning which helps keep me entertained whenever I’m bored in class. While pen spinning I started to listen to audiobooks so I can have something new and interesting to listen to. If you guys have any recommendations for shows, books, or interesting things to do, It will be much appreciated.

First off, I hope you’re doing well also and your family is staying safe and healthy as well! I appreciate you worrying about us, it’s very kind of you. I am very much so in a similar area especially with video games, just linking up with my friends and being able to do something fun for a few hours of the day. Hopefully, both of us can keep finding things to do to make sure we aren’t extremely bored all day.

I’m doing a lot better than before, I think I’ve gotten used to this a little, thanks for asking! I’ve also gotten back into using my PC a lot more, I had it at Temple but a lot of the time I was too busy and didn’t get to use it as much as I wanted. Now that I can actually use my computer it feels a little bittersweet. I think I’m gonna look to find some small skill to work on while I have this time.
