I have been struggling to try and find things to do with all my free time. Just if you have to leave the house practice social distancing because even if you are confident in your immune system other people might not be so respect others personal space. Stay Healthy!

Watch Netflix

I watch a lot of Netflix. So far I have watched the whole Glee series, I am half way through Grey's Anatomy.

Some show/movie suggestions: I am not okay with this is really good. Marriage Story is excellent, The Fundamentals of caring, He's just not that into you, Self Made is a good series, Love Is Blind, New Girl, End of The Fxxxing World, Life As We Know it, Somone Great, To All The Boys I loved before and To All The Boys I loved before P.S I still love you.

Paint 

Painting is a good way to get your eyes off a computer/phone screen.

Knitting

I have made three scarves, I learned how to knit from YouTube. It has kept my hands busy while I watch Netflix.

Playing Solitaire/Doing Word Searches 

These games keep your mind fresh and focused on something.

Going for walks 

Just being outside, it always good for the mind and body. Fresh air will make you feel more alive.

Working out

Even though the gyms are closed that doesn't mean you have to stop working out. Keeping your body in good shape will help you feel better.

Communication 

Keeping up conversations with your friends and family will help you not feel alone.

Writing

Great way to channel your feelings during a time where you might not have someone to talk to about everything that's happening.

Meditate or watch a church service

Meditation can help with reducing anxiety and releasing stress.

Plant a Garden 

Doing some gardening can make your house look better and it might get you outside for a little while. Also a nice break for your couch and Netflix.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
