I recently had a COVID scare when one of my best friends' roommates tested positive. I was negative but still had to stay in my room for 10 days. Here is what I did and what I recommend to stay entertained.

Watch So Much Netflix

It is SO hard to find time to watch Netlfix. As much as I hated being in quarantine, I caught up on so many movies that I wanted to see, and shows that I wanted to finish. It helped me relax and also helped to pass the time.

I wasn't sick, so I wanted to find a way to get some exercise. I had a yoga mat in my apartment, and made sure I took this time to myself. It was good for my mental health.

Open A Book

Ok, I'm so bad with keeping up with reading. I used this time to finish an entire book! I felt so accomplished.

Get Ahead On Work

Facetime Friends And Family

Journaling about my feelings and listening to good music always helps to boost my mood.

I hope these tips help you get through your quarantine as much as they helped me. Remember you are helping to keep everyone safe. Don't worry, you'll get through this!
