Quarantine Activities

As everyone is trapped inside for the next couple of weeks due to the coronavirus, we're faced with restlessness and boredom. Here are some activities that can hopefully make your days a little more interesting!

Quarantine Activities

1.) Paint by Numbers. Available to buy on Amazon and paintbynumbers.com, paint by numbers is a fun and easy way to kill time and develop your artistic skills.

2.) Become TikTok famous. Learn the dances and follow the strange trends. Watching TikToks can also give you other ideas of what to do during quarantine. I've seen many TikToks about special recipes and art projects that anyone can do!

3.) Read a good book. Usually I'm not an avid reader, but over the past couple of weeks I have been able to read a couple of really great books. Also, you can create a Goodreads account where you can track the books that you have read and get book recommendations.

4.) Watch a good television series. I personally love to watch docu-series when I have a lot of time on my hands. At the moment, I recommend watching Tiger King or Jailbirds, both available on Netflix.

5.) Learn something new. With the extra time on your hands you can start to learn a new language or learn how to play an instrument.

6.) Hone your cooking or baking skills. Spice up the kitchen with some new recipes; there are thousands of recipes available for anyone to use online!

7.) Scrapbook. We are a part of a very historically important time right now. Taking photographs and journaling is a good way to document what is happening so you can remember it and look back years from now when you are no longer quarantined!

8.) Reach your health goals. With the time to prepare healthier meals and exercise, being quarantined could be the opportunity to achieve your health goals that always got put on the back burner.

9.) Read the News. I think trying to stay informed and aware about the world right now is important in light of the pandemic.

10.) Keep in Touch with Friends and Family. If being isolated means that you are separated from loved ones, make sure to keep in touch.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
