Quarantined Daily Diaries: Day 8

Happy Monday guys! I hope everyone is doing well! As you can tell by the title, I am going to be sharing everything that I did today! I’ve decided to exclude weekends because I choose the weekends to relax so it’s not really interesting to blog about. I have a lot more things going on over the week than the weekends so I’m going to exclude the weekends. Anyways, I also changed the banner because I wanted to switch it up so I think that from now on, every week I’m going to change the banner.

I’ve been reading what other bloggers and YouTubers are doing to pass the time while social distancing. I love the creativity and the fun activities that you can do within your home without having to purchase anything. Seeing what other people come up with and seeing how others are choosing to spend their time is very interesting to me. I have seen a lot of tie-dying, in-home exercising, baking and more! It’s great that people are spending less time on their phones and instead are using their time to be productive or entertain themselves in ways that don’t heavily involve electronics.

The benefits to using your electronics during a time like this is that you can keep in touch with friends and family to make sure they are doing ok! My mom and I call my Grandma every day to make sure she’s doing ok and staying safe. Using your devices like that is totally fine! I just think that we have to be more aware about how much time we spend on our electronics and focus on ourselves and our mental health to make sure we are staying sane, especially during a time like this.

What I did today (in order):

1. Studied my SAT words (look below for the new words that I got this week).

Please stay home and stay safe. It’s very important that we all do our part and stay home so that we reduce the risk in spreading the virus to more susceptible people. Love y’all ❤️
