The corona virus is spreading like wildfire through out the world. Most of society has to adjust to working from home. For me and many other, you have virtual school. It is a lot different and being quarantined presents you with lots of free time. All of this time may leave you bored, I know I get bored sometimes. Or you may feel worried about the Corona virus. I am calling this the Corona blues; it is when you are bored, worried, and stuck in the house. I am encouraging you use this time to your advantage. Learn something new, Work out, Get a hobby. Since for most practices and games are cancelled it is important to stay in shape. Do workout videos or take a jog around your block. If you still have free time after all that working out learn something! I am taking an online ASL course to learn sign language. I think it is an interesting language and it never hurts to engage the brain more and learn something. With all this free time many are watching TV more then usual. If you don’t know what to watch I recommend Netflix’s Self Made. It tells the captivating story of Madame CJ Walker and how she rose to fame and fortune selling her hair product. It is very interesting and I think Madame CJ Walker has a unique story. Self Made is both entertaining and educational plus its a good way to honor women’s history month. What ever you do during quarantine stay safe and healthy and try to push the Corona Blues away.
