The country has started to shut down and people all over are learning social distancing, as well as staying at home. While many people are excited to stay at home, it can get pretty boring and routine. Now that there's a lot more time, it's the perfect opportunity to try something new! Here's what you can do during quarantine to stay sane.

Dalgona Coffee

This trend of making Dalgona coffee is one of the most popular activities to do right now. It's quick, easy, and delicious! This kind of coffee is a mix of instant coffee, sugar, and water whisked together to make a frothy consistency. The mixture is then poured into milk. Stir together and you have yourself a delicious beverage. The task to make this requires a lot of whisking, but once finished the drink feels very rewarding.

CLEAN!

If you haven't cleaned your room for some time, now is the time to do so. The virus stays on surfaces for quite some time, so disinfecting your place is key to make sure it's virus free. Even if you haven't been outside, why not just get rid of all the dust and gunk that's been sitting there? Cleaning can also help relieve any stress you may have, as all your energy goes into trying to perfect the cleanliness of your living space.

Fill Up A Notebook

Have a notebook, or journal, laying around? Well it's time to open it and fill it up! Sometimes it can be difficult to finish a notebook, but now can be the time to finish it in its entirety! Whether it's doodling, or writing, fill up the notebook as much as you can. Doodling on the page may be a lot easier, and helps to activate that creative mind. You never know what you'll end up filling your book with!

Deep Search on Amazon

Ever wondered what other products you could find on one of the biggest online shopping sites? Amazon carries so many items, that there's probably a lot more items you never thought you would find, let alone need! Go on a deep search to see what you can find and possibly put on your wishlist.

Times are difficult now, but it's important to stay positive and hope for the best. Stay safe and healthy!

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
