Quarantine Post No.x
As much as
I don't want this to sound like an apocalyptic diary entry, it's been almost a month since the beginning of the quarantine- at least from where I'm at.
But we
must remain hopeful & thoughtful of others.
With that
being said, a lot of people really do not know what to do with themselves when
it comes to this level of alone time. I do enjoy being in my own space,
creating cool things out of nothing. It's honestly my favorite! I guess in
the midst of all my solitary fun, I forgot about those who thrive on the
opposite.
Vlogging
I've been
vlogging again and I've been learning how to edit videos, whether they'll be
seen online or not? I'm not sure yet (because wow, the first time I tried to, I failed epically but anyway-). What I've learned so far though, I do find vlogging so much more enjoyable to film than the traditional one-room, sit-downs. I feel like you can catch more fun moments when you're vlogging.
Cooking Challenges
Picking
one main ingredient such as say, sweet potato, and creating different meals
based on these ingredient(s). I've always enjoyed cooking but only recently
have I found joy in creating whole meals from scratch. If you haven't already
been able to tell, I do enjoy taking pictures. So if I enjoy one of these meals
enough, a whole recipe book might just end up in the works! I think it would be
such a fun project to start! If you ever do, I would absolutely love to check
your recipes out!
Building My Photography Skills
Speaking
of pictures, I've been learning more about photography and lighting. There are always new angles to explore and moods to play with. It's been a few months of
exploring this new hobby of mine and I've really grown to see the beauty in
my surroundings. Taking pictures around the house doesn't sound too fancy, but if you examine something long enough, you might just find something interesting that you never thought could be!
Masterclass
(not sponsored)
I LOVE to
learn new things. I've known about Masterclass for a while before I was finally
able to take classes through it! They've got so many interesting courses that you
can take. In addition to all the
acting, drama, and theatre courses in my course queue, I have filmmaking,
directing, storytelling & mixology (because I've gotten a
The Sims 4 + Letsplays
When I'm
not cleaning, organizing, or doing other fun solitary things, I like to reward
myself with more fun, solitary things: some good ol' fashioned casual gaming. I
posted on twitter recently about requests for self CAS (or Create A Sim, for
those new to the game). I've also recently discovered how to record my computer
screen so I'm really looking forward to learning how to edit recordings! What
games in your library have you not touched in a while? Maybe now's the
time to fall in love with them again!
On top of reading, continuing to fill my days with all things film, catching up on anime, journaling, playing with my sweet puppies, I've also been annoying the crap out of my family as I break out in song.
It really has been fun seeing people trying new things and being creative in
their homes.
I wish I
had more time in the day to keep learning but a girl's gotta sleep, y'know?
What have you been to satisfy your creativity?
