ANTI-BOREDOM HOBBIES

 

Post things here that you are doing during Covid to stay occupied. (aka, not go insane ;)

I've been sorting through my old Cricket mags.

I have been doing sticker by number sticker books! My favorites are the Animetrics/Geometrics.

I'm dancing, in person and socially distanced with masks, but it's 5 days a week so it keeps me pretty occupied. I also draw a lot, like a LOT a lot, which I picked up at the beginning of quarantine, and read.

I've been writing little movies and acting them out XD They suck, but, it's practice! :3 I've also been writing\reading mangas! I love drawing and writing mangas and I use other mangas to help. It's very fun :)

I'm also interested in manga, but I haven't read many yet.

I've been doing theater classes via zoom, and I've really enjoyed them! My mom and I have a joint sketchbook which we draw in every now and then. My dad and I take walks every day, with the minimum mileage  being one mile. Yesterday we did two miles, because the weather was quite fine in Chicago that day. I also doodle sometimes, write on CB, read books, read news articles, and write to my quarantine pen pal, who is my friend Julia.

if anyone has any book recommendations, I am more than open. My favorite genre is magical, fiction, and romance.

I obssesively look at craft blogs! I also have a ton of after school activities. I do sewing, hebrew school, tennis, ballet (zoom), french and beading.

Invest myself in theories about real people with a considerable amount of proof they are real but haven't been confirmed yet. Wait no, that only started two weeks ago.

Gain an obsessive crush on a tiktoker 7 and a half years older than me. Wait, that only started three months ago. If you can't already tell, my mental health has taken a fairly bad turn since 2021.

But I also have dance 5 days a week and in-person school two days a week.

At the beginning of covid before I got tiktok in November I would watch tiktok compilations on youtube until like 3 am. It has since moved to closer to 5 am and other genres of youtube videos. Also I think I have basically memorized the words to every single one of Billie Eilish's songs, except for her most recent one (Lo Vas a Olvidar).

We need to save the earth and ocean from climate change and more problems. We only have less than ten years until our planet becomes way too warm. It is important that we all do our part, even during COVID, to help. Something I am interested in doing is making sure that I don't throw away stuff that I could reuse! You might have fun making crafts out of upcycled things. For example, a plastic bag that held flossers could become a seed starter. Another fun thing is to look for wild things around you. Plant native plants (they use less water and are great!) in your yard, as well as delicious herbs, fruits, and vegetables. Watch them grow! And if there is wilderness around you, like a creek bed or a forest, that's great, too! You can become a creek keeper for that!

The ocean calls you. What will you do?
