Dear Diary,
Being home from college is such a strange transition. I have been living on my own for three months in a big city, being able to do anything I want at the drop of the hat. Now I have to ask my parents to do anything and go anywhere.
Nevertheless, I am having a blast not worrying about anything.
Since I've been cooped up on my house, not being able to do virtually anything, I have compiled a list of activities that can keep anyone occupied (even a college student!).
1.) Learn something new! || I just got this "Crochet for Beginners" book that comes with year and crochet (sticks?), and that has been keeping me busy the past few days! I have even learned how to start a scarf.
2.) Start a Pinterest. || I have been on this site for over 4 years now! I joined back when it was 'invitation only,' and it shows. This can keep me occupied for literally hours.

3.) Catch up on some Netflix. || Let's face it: it is an addiction. I have watched so many series, I should be committed. A few I have been absolutely loving lately are:
Hart of Dixie || I just recently started watching this one, but I love it already. Drama, hot guys, fashion, and Southern charm. Need I say more?
Parenthood || I binge-watched this one. I finished the first 5 seasons in three weeks. I have never been so proud.
Gilmore Girls (but of course) || I would not be myself if I didn't add this one. Mothers and daughters will love this show. A little bit of comedy, a little bit of drama, and a whole lot of love. Plus-Melissa McCarthy starting her career. What could be better than this?
Brothers & Sisters (act fast-this one is taken off streaming 1/4/15!!) || Drama. Drama. Drama. Family drama is fun to watch-as long as it isn't your own family, of course.
Gossip Girl || Every girl's dream: New York City, friends, and boys. I honestly didn't think I would like this show, but I fell in love after the first episode. Can you say Chuck Bass?
The Office || I can't even explain how much I love this show. Steve Carell at his best. This will keep you laughing throughout the whole series. Trust me on this one.4.) Workout. || Can you say Freshman 15?
5.) Cook/bake || Even if you aren't exactly a gourmet chef-my family won't hesitate to tell you that I am not- cooking something on your own can be quite satisfying. Try something easy to start off, like cookies, or a homemade Mac n' Cheese.
Anyone else have suggestions I didn't mention?
