Diamond paintings are a fun hobby. I find it incredibly relaxing. It is easy to try, and it doesn't require much artistry. Instead, it is more of a meditative activity, using small diamond drills to “color by number” on a prepared canvas. These are some of the basics to try out this hobby.

The games we play when we swear its going to be wholesome family bonding, and then someonec cries, cheats or rage quits. Equal parts laughter, chaos and competition - because nothing says love like yelling “you didnt read the rules right” across the table.

My overall recommendations as a lifelong artist | Easily Accessible and Affordable Supplies for Beginner Artists or Younger Ages

This list is all about FPS (first-person shooters). Late 90s and the 2000s. That was the golden age of gaming for me. Whether you want to revisit some of the greats or explore some you’ve never heard of, I encourage you to dive in. Video games are for everyone, no matter your age, so why not play something retro?

YouTube is my favorite place to watch people while I’m doing various things like doing chores. It was major for me when I was in school and then college as it was my background noise while doing homework and while studying. These are just my opinion- not everyone will like the same creators or content 🤗

In Korea, it’s rare for dramas to have more than one season, and if they do, they rarely follow the typical Western format of season finales with cliffhangers. However, in recent years, a few series, especially those from platforms like Netflix, have started adopting this approach. Personally, I enjoy the one-season format, but some stories feel like they have the potential to continue. In this list, I’m sharing a selection of K-dramas with multiple seasons. Some of them I absolutely love as they are, and I’m eagerly waiting for more episodes, while in other cases, I’m not entirely convinced they needed additional seasons. I hope you enjoy my recommendations! | Disclaimer: This list includes some affiliate links. If you make a purchase through these links, I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.
