I took this photo on my nice white desk because I sit here a lot to do my work or do a craft or something. I chose the same items for both pictures because these help me cope and occupy me simultaneously through the pandemic. I like arranging the items so they feature some white space in between each because I think it is very satisfying to look at so I did that for both, but obviously changed up the arrangement or set up of some of the objects. For example, laying the essential oils on their sides or right side up. I have been writing lots; I have recently gotten in bullet journaling which is why I chose to highlight my favorite pens and bullet journal. It is something new that keeps me very occupied and is quite creative. I also chose my stress free candle and my favorite aroma therapy scents because not only do they smell so good but they help relax me! My favorite book thus far during quarantine has been "Becoming" by Michelle Obama, but the book represents all the books I have been reading lately! I also chose to show my laptop and airpods because I use them everyday and are some of my most useful items. Not only do I use my laptop for working but also watching movies/shows and I cannot live without my headphones. I wear them all the time, but love to go running or on a bike ride with them. Lastly, I included my favorite color nail polish and a half done friendship bracelet. These both are things I do to pass time and keep my hands busy. I love painting my nails so I change the color every few days but I love how bright and happy that coral embodies. Hopefully I will be able to give all the friendship bracelets I've been making to my friends soon!
