Watch a Movie

Browse the Internet

The Internet can be a great way to pass the time. Sit in bed with your laptop and use the time to read up on things that interest you. If you are thinking of redoing your apartment, you can get some excellent ideas. If you are into celebrity gossip, again this is a useful source.

Read a Book

There is no better way to pass the time when you’re sick than reading a good book. The problem most often is finding a good book to read but if you do, then lose yourself in it. As long as you are well enough to read, it is the best thing you can do with your time.

Organize Your Computer

With our hectic schedules, many of us are left with disorganized computers. Use this down time to organize your desktop and sort out your files. You can label and organize your photos, videos, music and other documents exactly like how you want it done so that for the next few weeks, you have a well structured computer.

Catch up on Your Sleep

Thanks to our busy lives, the one thing we mostly sacrifice is our sleep. So what better way to pass the time when you’re ill than to sleep it out? You can find yourself rejuvenated and refreshed after a day of dozing and snoozing without any distractions or disturbances.
