How to Kill Time During A Social Media Outage

Social Networking Sites can always disappear. In fact, virtual life is so fragile and temporary that it might just vanish one day altogether.

A few days ago, popular networking sites such as Facebook and Instagram stopped working for the majority of users. Some were confounded while others didn’t know what they should do.

Yep, the average individual spends over seven hours on these platforms, which only states how dependent on social media, we are which is why we’ve compiled a list of things you can do in case you need to take a break.

Take yourself on a Lunch Date: Lunch Dates are the best.

You can not only enjoy the lovely scenery, but you can also have a sumptuous meal along with your own self.

If you’re feeling ecstatic, go ahead to a puppy cafe and ensure that you play with all the pups you possibly can.

Regardless of whether you’re getting a cup of your most loved coffee house down the hill or an outing to your favorite restaurant to grab that yummy sushi – nothing beats a date with yourself.

Cook a meal: Cooking can be extremely therapeutic.

In fact, turn on some good ol’ music and cook your favorite meal. Make some Italian pasta or whip up some delectable Tiramisu.

There’s a whole other world outside of social media. Unwind and relax and indulge in a hearty meal.

In fact, invite your neighbors over to your house and get to know each other.

Play a game: Become a child and play a nice game.

It can be indoors or even outdoors. Be it a tricky one or an easy peasy match, just enjoy a relaxing afternoon of games.

You can play hide and seek or indulge in a computer game. The sky is the limit from there.

Redecorate your home: Ensure that your house looks extremely classy.

Bring some new curtains, shop for some decor pieces or even better; make some DIY decorative pieces yourself.

All you need are some basic craft supplies. You can even try to create decorative items from your old T-shirt, or an old piece of canvas. It can be absolutely fun to create crafts.

Take some ice cream sticks and turn those into a pen holder, there’s a lot, which can be done without splurging your money on stuff.

Take a Walk: When everything else fails, nature comes to your rescue, take a stroll in the park amidst nature and ensure that your mind gets rejuvenated instantly.

Spend some quality time with your loved ones or your friends. This would definitely be a whole new experience.

Call your Loved Ones: While meeting your family or friends might not be possible in case they live far away, calling them or writing a letter can be the perfect solution to your lazy day.
