Skincare Routine

I developed my first ever skincare routine during quarantine and since then it’s evolved for the better. My skincare routine allows my skin to feel nourished and refreshed everyday making me feel more confident and satisfied with my appearance.

Checking in on My Friends

Everyday I ask my friends “how was your day” to see what they’ve been up to. This habit allows me to stay connected with my friends while they’re overseas for their summer holiday. I’ve also realized that nowadays people are rarely asked how their day was and it’s a question most people would like to answer.

Taking Time to Relax

It’s been a long school year and while I’m being productive during the summer it’s also important for me to take some time to relax. I do this by binging a Netflix show, journaling, or sleeping in.

Journaling

For the last two summers I’ve been journaling daily to keep myself busy. Not only does journaling help me get all my thoughts out but it also gives me time to step away from a screen. 

Leaving my House
Since it’s summer we can often be stuck in our rooms on our bed. While this may be true I make sure I get at least one outing every single day. Whether it’s going to a mall, going for a walk, catching up with friends, or even just going to the grocery store, a simple outing everyday keeps me from feeling drained and tired by sitting in my room all day.
