10 BYU Approved Activities To Do In Self-Isolation

Due to COVID-19 and the cancelation of in-person classes, you may just find yourself stuck inside on a period of self-isolation. However, this does not mean that your BYU experience has to come to an end. You can still have a Cougar-ific year inside. Here are 10 things you can do to continue to enter to learn and go forth to serve. 

  • Take a cold shower to prevent yourself from thinking about the opposite sex. You should have considered getting married before the coronavirus pandemic. 

  • Go down a Youtube rabbit hole and become convinced that Justin Bieber is an illuminati lizard person. It’s what Brother Brigham would want.

  • Make up a fake test and cheat on it. The bad feeling you get inside will make you grateful for the testing center.

  • Binge-watch all of the Book of Mormon videos. Discussion question: Would Martin Scorsese consider these cinema?

  • Build a toilet paper fort. Your mom panicked and bought way too much.

  • Play table-top football, but make sure that you perpetually lose. This will invigorate you with the spirit of BYU athletics. You are, however, allowed to win at table-top basketball.

  • Answer the Daily Universe’s soda questions on Instagram. This is important, hard-hitting journalism. 

  • Go through the drive through at Swig or Sodalicious. No disaster can quiet your caffeine addiction. For this, you should be proud.

  • FaceTime your ministering sisters and brothers. They will probably love it and want to stay on the phone with you for two hours. 

  • Read the Alternate Universe. We’ve been working really hard lately and deserve some recognition, ok? These are tough times. It’s the least you could do.
