My 5 Staples of Quarantine Thus Far

I could not make it without these

My 5 Staples of Quarantine Thus Far

The Occasional Chipotle Run

I have come to realize this past year that I may have a Chipotle OBSESSION! I could probably eat it every day if I could. But to constantly crave a bowl filled with goodness within has kept me sane. Luckily Chipotle has the quick pickup inside their restaurants, it is a quick in and out. You know, not only be safe during these times of uncertainty but it also helps when I order it by the time I get there it is ready.

The Daily Dose of Coffee

College has definitely had its effects on my drinking of coffee, but this past year I surely cannot go without my morning coffee. Whether it is hot coffee or even an iced coffee, even a whipped coffee (Thanks TikTok) every now and then.

Binge Worthy Shows

I mean is this even a question for a quarantine staple. I watched, for the first time, Game Of Thrones within a span of only a few months. One of my favorite shows yet and I cannot wait for House of the Dragon to come out. Trinkets and The Rain are more favorites, and I just started watching Tiny Pretty Things.

Cooking and Baking

I have always enjoyed baking and cooking, but with more time on my hands I have enjoyed it a little more. I swear I baked like 100 loaves of zucchini bread from homegrown zucchinis from our family garden. I have learned how to make homemade cinnamon rolls too.

And Yes, my Family

I do not know what I would do this past year being by myself, I am lucky enough to have had my family at my side. Besides the craziness that we call this year, game nights here and there have been a part of the agenda as well as the occasional laugh at each other.

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.
