With roughly two months of 2020 left, it is safe to say that there is no clear end in sight when it comes to the COVID-19 pandemic. As the weather begins to get colder, we will once again find ourselves spending more time inside. With that being said, if you're searching for purchases to refresh your quarantine space and help keep things interesting, look no further.

New Bedding

I don't know about anyone else, but I spent quite a bit of time in my bed watching Netflix back in March and April. A few months later, I was moving into a new apartment and decided to buy new sheets, new pillows, and even a new mattress. Though you don't need all of the above to help refresh your bedroom style in quarantine, consider buying a new duvet or comforter in a fun color to brighten your room and brighten your mood.

Plants

If you don't have the space for an all-out garden, I would highly recommend buying some flowers or succulents to place around your home. Plants are such a low maintenance addition to your space, but a pop of greenery here and there will surely lift your spirits and keep your home looking fresh.

Fresh Dinnerware

If you're planning to spend your time at home within these winter months, make sure to allow for some time to be spent in the kitchen. If you don't already have one, I recommend purchasing a crockpot for this next round of quarantine. There are plenty of delicious recipes that can be made with a crockpot, and the aromas will give your home a very cozy feeling. If a crockpot isn't your cup of tea, I would recommend purchasing an air fryer. With an air fryer, you can cook many healthy alternatives to your favorite snacks and meals, leaving you with little cleanup and a full stomach.

Or at least try to do.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
