As an introvert bookworm, I definitely would choose staying at home reading rather than going out any days (well, not any days, but most days). I mean, who doesn't love curling up in bed just reading or watching movies? When Leesa Mattress asked me what my staying-in essentials are, I thought it would be fun to share with you guys! Here they are :
Books (and movies)
Of course, books deserve to be number 1 in this list! What good staying-in is without an equally good books to accompany? I'm imagining myself tucked under my comforter, with pillow by my side, and a good book to read and it sounds perfect. If I'm already tired with reading, I usually switch on my laptop and watch a movie!
Music
Music is my number 1 stress reliever, and since I stress a lot thanks to school, I made sure to turn on some music before I go to sleep to help me calm down. I rarely listen to music while reading since it make me can't concentrate, but if I love a book so much, I often found myself scrolling through tumblr to search some playlists.
Comforter + Socks + Candle
Although Indonesia (aka my country) is a tropical country (therefore it's more hot than cold), I love to use comforter since it's so comfy! And socks too, if it's one of those days when degree decides to drop. Candles also give me some 'staying-in' vibes, as well as relieve my stress.
Peaceful Sleep
Unlike most bookworms, I actually never and can't stay up all night reading. The latest I've been is around 1 AM, and I only do it once. I love sleep so much to be honest, that I can't give it up. Also peaceful sleep = happy morning.
Now tell me, how's your staying-in essentials? Is it similar to mine? Or completely different? I'd love to know yours ❤
My number one staying-in essential would definitely be tea! Even over books, because I need a cup of tea be my side, whatever I am doing.
ReplyDeleteThis could be reading books, but to be honest, I enjoy youtube-binging nearly as much. Especially booktube. Yapp, watching booktubers is definitely another staying-in essential ^^

Aside from all of that, I would also say FOOD. A day watching something on Netflix with a bowl of popcorn or some empanadas and then switching to a book? That's the definition of perfection for me XD
ReplyDeleteI love this! My staying in essentials definitely include good books, TV shows or movies, and music.

I stay up reading far more often than I should. But it's definitely my way of unwinding, so ...
