How to not waste your time during quarantine

During this pandemic, when we should be cautious and taking care of our health, we should hope to leave it feeling it was a time well spent when things die down in the future.

How to not waste your time during quarantine

I've gotten really into Duolingo, whether or not I'm actually going to be fluent in French, Italian, and Japanese by the time the pandemic is over is beyond me, but starting to learn languages during a time where you have a lot of time on your hands is pretty productive. Just a heads up though, hiragana is very hard to learn. As a primarily English speaker, I can kinda see some similarities in French and Italian, but starting to learn Japanese is a whole other ballpark, so props to anyone that can master both. Duolingo is really fun though, so I'd definitely recommend starting it f you're looking for something to do. Whether you have a ton of time or only a few minutes to kill.

At home exercise, you've probably seen in all over people's social media's, everybody posting their at-home workout routines and such. I haven't really been going on a routine lately, I'm just happy that there were a few dumbbells left at Dick's, but still, it's a good way to "waste" some time if you want.

Either way, this pandemic is very serious and hopefully, if people take the necessary precautions to prevent themselves and others from getting sick, it'll be over quickly.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
