I recently had a COVID scare when one of my best friends' roommates tested positive. I was negative but still had to stay in my room for 10 days. Here is what I did and what I recommend to stay entertained.

Watch So Much Netflix

It is SO hard to find time to watch Netlfix. As much as I hated being in quarantine, I caught up on so many movies that I wanted to see, and shows that I wanted to finish. It helped me relax and also helped to pass the time.

YouTube Meditation/Yoga/ Workouts

I wasn't sick, so I wanted to find a way to get some exercise. I had a yoga mat in my apartment, and made sure I took this time to myself. It was good for my mental health.

Open A Book

Ok, I'm so bad with keeping up with reading. I used this time to finish an entire book! I felt so accomplished.

Get Ahead On Work

I got soooo ahead on my studies. Then when I got out of quarantine, I didn't feel overwhelmed.

Facetime Friends And Family

Always comforting to see the faces of people you love.

Catch Up On Sleep

I tried to get those 8+ hours!

Journal/Listen To Music

Journaling about my feelings and listening to good music always helps to boost my mood.

I hope these tips help you get through your quarantine as much as they helped me. Remember you are helping to keep everyone safe. Don't worry, you'll get through this!

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that?

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.
