At the moment, I feel like I have a lot of time on my hands, and I’d imagine everyone else is feeling fairly similar to me! So I’ve decided that it might be good to share some of the things I’ve been doing to fill this time. These are things that I’ve been doing to help myself feel less bored, and you never know, they might help relieve some of your boredom too!

  • Teach yourself something new! I’ve been trying to find new ways to fill my time, and things like origami, British Sign Language, improving my drawing skills, things like that.
  • Find a new interest! There are lots of people putting effort into giving access to media for free that you can have a look at. Good examples of this are the YouTube channels National Theatre and The Shows Must Go On, who are putting up recordings of old performances up for free for 7 days or 48 hours respectively, and watching these can be a really fun way to spend your time!
  • Improve a skill you already have! I’m really trying to get out and do more photography (I may end up posting some on here at some point) so if you have something that you like doing that you don’t do as often any more, use this time!

Give something new a try, or get better at something you know!

In the meantime, stay silver!
