Now that classes are online and you find yourself adjusting to this new lifestyle, do you feel restless? I sure do, but I realize this is the time for me to do all the things I had always said I would do, if I had more time. If you are a marvel fan like me, you have probably felt the urge to binge watch all the movies at some point. This quarantine season, I have been going through the list chronologically (and believe me you pick up on so many cool details):

10. Captain America: The Winter Soldier

11. Guardians of the Galaxy

12. Guardians of the Galaxy vol 2

13. Avengers: Age of Ultron

14. Ant-Man

15. Captain America: Civil War

16. Spider-Man: Homecoming

Another thing I do when I have a lot of time on my hands is bake and cook. Here is a make your own chocolate truffles kit. I think we could all use a treat to sweeten up this time at home!

Although we can’t go out to shop, we can still make our wardrobe a bit brighter ;) Tie-dye is always in style, no matter what time of the year it is, you can try out this tie-dye DIY kit to convert some clothes you already have into trendy new pieces, without having to leave your home!

Getting bored of staring at empty walls? Well, here is a string art kit that could jazz up your room. Create your own theme and revamp your living/working space to feel more energized, I swear it makes a world of difference!

Decorate your notes and make them more eye-catching. Now that you have so much more time to devote to your notes, you might as well make them more interesting. Here are three things I do when note taking: Use:

1. Different color pens and highlighters

2. Printer paper instead of regular binder paper

3. Use different fonts and sizes
