Ways to cope and stay cozy this term as we live through history
New Year New "we"
Letter from the editor, It’s safe to say that we’re all a little exasperated with living in “unprecedented times,” but until things are precedented again, the best we can do is keep moving forward with our heads and spirits high. The combination of cold weather, winter classes and COVID seems like a spell for disaster, but don’t worry: we’re here for you! In a world of separation and distancing, it’s key that we remember our togetherness in spirit and move forward as a collective “we” into the new year. Let’s change these wasteland vibes to more of a winter wonderland. Check out this issue of Duck Living for tips on enjoying the outdoors even in the cold, keeping your house nice and cozy, and how to look back on the terror that was 2020 with rose colored glasses. Stay safe out there folks, and stay positive! But, not COVID positive. Oh, you know what I mean.

Sustaining Sustainability How to keep your space (and you) warm without skyrocketing the electricity bill.
A
s the temperatures in Eugene get lower and lower, our heating bills seem to get higher and higher. But there are a lot of ways to mitigate these high electricity bills. A tried and true classic to keep yourself warm over the winter would be more layers. Your feet and hands will cool down faster than the rest of your body, so keep them warm! A cozy sweater, fuzzy socks, or knit beanie are all accessible and comfortable ways to keep yourself warm without spending too much. You could also invest in a new fuzzy blanket or throw to have handy while at home, or stock up on reusable toe and hand warmers. If you have one already, ceiling fans help circulate the already warm air, and a lot of ceiling fans have a reverse switch which makes the blades turn clockwise. This will keep the warm air down instead of up, and will help circulate the warm air around your living space. If you have a fireplace, it would be advantageous to close it when it is not in use, and seal up the other vents so you can keep the cold air from coming in. Depending on your situation, it can also be cheaper to heat a home or room with wood stove heat rather than electric (easier is not always better!).

Another great tip would be closing doors of unused rooms and even finding a way to seal the bottom of said doors. You could use anything from a towel to old laundry to keep the gap sealed—we’re not judging. If you have a lot of windows in your living place, keeping a temporary plastic seal on the windows can help provide more insolation. Another handy tip would be to open the blinds when the sun is out. More often than not, dirty heaters can lead to inefficiencies when trying to use them. Try dusting them every so often to ensure maximum efficiency. Furniture can also obstruct the ventilation, so it would be in your best interest to make sure nothing obstructs the vents. If you are interested in other ways to maximize efficiency this winter, some great ways to do that would be in the kitchen. Tupperware is your best friend in this regard. Meal prepping and cooking large quantities of food (rice, chicken, pasta etc.) can help make meal time stress-free on chilly days and adds a fun bonus of heating the house thoroughly with one solid day of oven use. It is also advisable to keep your freezer and fridge temperature at an appropriate level. If it is too cold, food can be a pain to defrost, and if it is too warm, it will simply go bad. With these tips in mind, you should be able to keep your heater bill down, and be cozy all the while.

COVID IN THE COLD How to stay cozy while maintaining social distance
T
he frigid and often rainy weather has settled into Oregon and the COVID-19 pandemic is still a very real obstacle in our lives. With seemingly few options, it may feel as though we are running out of things to do that don’t involve hunkering down inside. However, there are still simple, safe, and responsible ways to enjoy your free time. First and foremost, be prepared to brave the weather. Ensure that you have layers that will resist holding in sweat and keep a warm top layer that, ideally, is waterproof. On the other hand, if your closet is packed with a few too many long sleeves, coats or last season’s winter gear, consider sorting through your wardrobe and donating warm items you no longer have use for. There are plenty of individuals and families that need warm items this time of year. The unique challenges presented by the pandemic can make affording sufficient amounts of warm clothing especially difficult this year. There is a Winter Clothing Drive hosted by the Catholic Community Services of Lane County or other organizations like St. Vincent Depaul and Goodwill. When you find yourself hungry and looking to shake things up, it’s a great idea to grab some take-out at a locally run restaurant, bakery, or cafe. Ordering out is one of the best ways to safely ensure that the small businesses of Eugene stick around–they’re woven into the fabric of our community and these places rely on our business business. Plus take-out is an exciting way to mix up your diet. Do be sure to tip well. Those who are out working are doing so because they need to and giving gratuity should be common practice these days. 20% is my rule of thumb but give whatever you can at check out. Also, hitting up local grocers like Sundance, New Frontier Market, Capella Market or The Kiva is a nice way to get out of the house and provide business for these markets. Another benefit to shopping local is that small grocers provide more local and sustainable produce.
Looking for a computer break? Stretch your legs and try out a walk through Autzen or campus. There are plenty of routes to take on and it’s easy while outdoors to maintain a safe distance from others. The weekends may provide an opportunity to go beyond the borders of Eugene. Mt. Hood and Mt. Bachelor both have beautiful locations to dust off your snowshoes and experience the charming snow. If you’d rather, the lifts are running and the snow has been great for skiing or snowboarding—masks required! If you’re keeping it local, outdoor bonfires are the perfect way to warm up and enjoy the outdoors. Grab your roommates, blankets, some s’more and hot chocolate ingredients (I highly recommend sunflower butter chocolate cups), throw together a playlist and gather around the fire. As long as there is a safe place to light some wood, you’re good to go. Solid alternatives include rallying around the fireplace or roasting some ‘mellows over the stove. It’s all about finding the safest accommodations. Parties are out but themed at-home hangouts are... in? With a little imagination and a quick trip through your temporarily retired “going out” clothes, you can turn your home into a mini soiree. Pick a theme and run with it. My house has tried out a black tie event for five, cooking night, collaging & drinks and game night. Turn on a fitting movie, make a formal menu, call up some dearly missed friends via video chat, and give yourself an excuse to dress up. You and your COVID circle can camp out in the living room and make the most out of it. Regardless of what adventure you take on, staying safe remains the priority. With a few thoughtful measures to protect yourself and others, the Oregon winter still provides ample opportunity to have some fun and to take on new experiences. Getting outside, making some plans, or helping out the community in any shape or form will help you ride out the rest of this pandemic.

Reflecting on 2020 Written by Josiah Pensado Photography by Isaac Wu 2020 has been quite the year for everyone, with more than its fair share of ups and downs, but as we write this article, what was described as “the worst year ever” is finally behind us. What was the moral of the story, exactly? Personally, I had a lot more time to spend it where it really counts. I read a lot of books, practiced more guitar, and I even started drawing again while in quarantine. But this article isn’t about me, it's about 2020 and what lessons we can take with us moving forward. In my opinion, the biggest takeaway from all of this is that we shouldn’t take our health and loved ones for granted. ‘Health is wealth’ seems to have found a new meaning. Every day that I wake up without a stuffy nose or sore throat feels like a genuine blessing. If for whatever reason you aren’t taking class from home, one can always be grateful for your roommates. I know I was. Moving in with my three friends has been fantastic, as was the time I spent over the summer with my family. Many of us seemed stricken by something in 2020, yet we persisted. The importance of compassion and unity, becomes ever more important. A year of distancing has allowed us to cherish the people around us and provided a constant reminder of just how important it is to tell the people you appreciate that you appreciate them. If you have grandparents to call—now is the perfect time. Another thing we can take with us would be all the time we have. We have more spare time since Zoom University started, and really this seems like the ultimate double edged sword. It gives us more time to spend with our roommates, work on pet projects that we have been meaning to get to since 2017, and more importantly, read the Daily Emerald. Extra minutes have turned into hobbies and late nights are now flourishing Etsy pages, but at the same time, we’ve learned that it’s OK to not always be productive, however you define the term. Relax in the way that works best for you, and savor the quiet moments as much as the wild ones. The last year was a tumultuous one, and supercharged with trauma and the unveiling of systematic racism like never before. We know how important education is, both on our own and the simple act of educating others. Move forward with the fiery passion of dismantling oppressive systems and the goal of making the planet better for our children. Love your neighbor, and hold them accountable, too. At the end of the day, 2020 has just been a real piece of work and we’re glad to have it behind us. Finding joy without the reassurance of certainty in the future is liberating. What will 2021 have in store for us? Grab your popcorn, get comfortable and let's see how 2021 unfolds with an intrepid state of mind: together (metaphorically), not apart.

plan the perfect
staycation The difference between an average post-work night spent watching television and an in-house vacation is the intention and preparation you put into it. 10 | DUCKS LIVING | Winter 2021
Written by Asha Abrams
PICTURE THIS: winter break 2021. You’re dozing on a sunny
beach, thawing by the fire in a ski lodge, or jamming out in your best friend’s car on the road trip you’ve always wanted to take together, content and vaccinated. In these challenging times, it can be a good self-care activity in itself to plan the perfect vacation (for when it is finally safe to do so). However in the meantime, we all deserve a COVID-conscious break from the world to relax and escape the everyday stress of our routines.
Bring ‘Abroad’ to Your Living Room
You can choose to stay local and give yourself a mental break, think of it as a vacation in spirit. Social distancing mandates that we spend free time inside our homes. The difference between an average in-house vacation is the intention and preparation you put into it. Choose a set amount of time devoted to your staycation and clear your schedule of ordinary responsibilities. The first step to a successful staycation is preparing your space. By putting in a little extra work cleaning your house before your designated “vacation” from life begins, you can create a hotellike atmosphere to relax into. Go grocery shopping to stock up on some extra special treats and research a new restaurant you’ve never tried to order takeout.
Blast Copacabana, turn on some party lights, and pretend for a night that you’ve teleported somewhere warm and vibrant! Ordering in from a restaurant you’ve never tried before and putting extra effort into making fancy drinks is a great way to imitate the exposure to new and different experiences we seek when we travel. Pina coladas are super easy to make, delicious, and make you feel about as far from dreary eugene weather as you could get. All you need is frozen pineapple chunks, rum (optional), and coconut milk. For 3 cups of pineapple, you would use 2/3 cups of coconut milk, and rum to your personal taste. Blend it all up, add some ice if it’s too thick, and enjoy! If your dream vacation involves partying on the beach with your closest friends, get them in on the action—pass along the drink recipe, and host a zoom party, playing drinking games and brainstorming plans for what you’ll do on a trip together.
Unplug and Relax
Seek a Change in Scenery
The point of a staycation is a break in routine, so if you are someone like me who has fallen into the habit of filling boring quarantine hours with more screen time, why not try to unplug for a bit? Give yourself permission to indulge in a hobby you might ordinarily lack the time for. For example, I’ve recently rediscovered how satisfying it is to snap in the last piece of a jigsaw puzzle. With class and work on the computer and guilty pleasure Netflix binges on the TV, give your tired eyes a break! Beach reads need not be saved for the beach (did you know that the University of Oregon library has an extensive popular reading collection and pickup window for holds?!) so try getting lost in a dramatic story, or listen to an exciting audiobook while walking around your neighborhood.
Absolutely can’t stand the sight of your own walls? Living in the Pacific Northwest, we are so fortunate to be surrounded by nature and many opportunities for adventuring. In Oregon we are only a few hours drive away from both the coast and mountains. For a change in pace and environment, take a day trip to walk along the beach or to explore snowy forests up on the mountain. You’ll need to brave the winter weather with a thermos full of a hot drink and layers of warm clothes, but numb toes at the end of an exciting day outdoors can be well worth it. A great university resource you might not know about is the Outdoor Program Rental Barn, located on the corner of 18th and University Street, currently open for COVID-safe reservations and curbside pick-up. They offer inexpensive rentals for all sorts of equipment you might need for an outdoor winter adventure including snow shoes, ski jackets and even camping stoves.
Spa Day At this point, I think every single person could use a solid twenty-four hours devoted entirely to self-care. Transform your space into a spa retreat for a day by dimming the lights, playing peaceful music, and lighting candles or an essential oil diffuser for aromatherapy. Treat yourself to a store-bought face mask or make one yourself! There are so many simple recipes you can find that use ingredients you’ll have on-hand. You can make such an easy exfoliating scrub just by mixing equal parts of sugar and coconut or olive oil. Give yourself a mental pampering as well by following along with guided meditation and yoga videos.

Switch up your space! Written by Josiah Pensado Illustrated by Kate Bossi
W
inters in Oregon are always something to dread, even for those of us who have lived here our whole lives. The rain, cold temperatures and sunsets at 4:30p.m. always seem to test by Josiah Pensado ourWritten patience, especially with all the things happening in the world right now. And since we are spending more time inside this year, why not make your room more comfortable and warm? There are many ways to spruce up your living space for the winter without breaking the bank. One of the easiest ways to do so would be adding string lights to your room. It’s a relatively cheap way to add some flair to the space, and once you are done with your lights for the holidays, you can simply hang them up around your home. All you really need is some command strips and hooks and you should be set. Another great way to make your living space brighter would be a salt lamp. A himalayan salt lamp can add some much needed ambiance to your room, especially once it starts to get very dark. With its very alluring orange collar and aesthetically pleasing appearance, salt lamps are a great addition to one’s room. An added plus would be the salt lamp’s orange glow, if you have trouble falling to sleep at night, you can turn this on a couple hours before you sleep.
If smell is a strong sense for you, another great addition to one’s living place would be incense sticks and/or scented candles. These would be perfect to help get you through those long days of classes, or long study days. The wide variety of scents that both of these can provide can really help bring a room to life and create a very warm atmosphere. What is nice about both of these would be the fact that they are relatively inexpensive and can be a nice alternative to keep your electricity bill down. If candles or incense don’t strike your fancy, another great way to change the aroma of a room would be a diffuser. Diffusers offer a wide variety of smells and can even help dehumidify a room. Not into the fairy lights or essential oils? Simply reorganize the furniture in your room, or, add a new statement piece to your room. Whether it be adding a new chair, a bookshelf, or even removing old furniture all together, shifting is a tried and true way to revitalize a room. As added decor, posters are a simple and effective way to add personality to any room, and can bring a nostalgic vibe. Alternatives are tapestries or even a neon sign. Throw pillows and blankets would be a great addition to any couch, as would setting up rug in your home. If you are looking for something less visual or smelly, a new sound system never disappoints and can help get you groovin’ and movin’ as a fun bonus during the winter blues. Anything from a record player, bluetooth speaker, or simply connecting Spotify to your TV, music can always change the mood of a room.
TIP: Your bed is a huge part of your room. Pillows, throw blankets and comforters are decorative and so cozy!

Take Out OR DIY Date Night If you’re living with your partner, Valentine’s Day might be a great time to support a small business and enjoy a takeout dinner together under candlelight. Chao Pra Ya Thai Cuisine: Located on Adams Street, this restaurant offers authentic Thai food and has gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian options, and is offering take-out. Sy’s New York Pizza: For a more chill date night, ordering a pizza and enjoying a movie together might be more fun than trying to have a fancy date from your home. Close to campus on Alder Street, they have contactless delivery straight to your door. Marché: For a more elegant date night, Marché has upscale French cuisine and is the classic romantic restaurant for a special occasion.
HOW TO PLAN
YOUR VALENTINE’S DAY IN LOCKDOWN Written by Kelsie Heffernan Photography by Isaac Wu Although it may be tempting to forget about COVID in the excitement of the new year, staying safe is still important. Finding someone new on a dating app or going to a party should be avoided at all costs, even on Valentine’s Day. There can be a lot of pressure on Valentine’s Day to be super special, but we’re all doing what we can just to get through the pandemic, and we shouldn’t let this holiday encourage us to forget about the work we’ve been doing to stay safe. Valentine’s Day is all about love, and the best way to show your love for your family and friends during this time is to stay home. Here are some fun ways to enjoy the holiday safely at home, whether you have a significant other or you’re single.
Riding Solo If you do find yourself alone on Valentine’s Day, taking a night to treat yourself might be the staycation you needed to get through the second term of online college. It might be a night to get takeout from that restaurant you’ve been meaning to try, buy that shirt you’ve been eyeing online, or catch up on that book you bought last month that you haven’t had time to read. You deserve it.
If you don’t feel like getting takeout, taking a zoom cooking class together can be a fun bonding activity and you’ll end up with a yummy dinner! These classes are offered by restaurants like Sur La Table and services like Cozy Meal. Registering for a class is as easy as finding some availability, themes you like, and getting a Zoom link.
Home Theatre Before COVID times, after you enjoyed your meal it may have been common to go see a movie. Although theatres are no longer an option, creating a comfy movie room can be even more romantic since it’s just you and your partner. Cozying up with blankets, pillows, chocolatecovered strawberries, and watching a romantic comedy feels even more personal than a crowded theatre. You can spice up your place by experimenting with romantic lighting like fairy lights and rose petals.
Single Friends, Unite! If you’re single this year, being by yourself on Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to mean being alone. Instead of trying to meet anyone new, zoom hangouts with friends can be the way to go! Putting a game night together with friends could turn out to be a lot more fun than trying to have an awkward first date. For a throwback, you can find online card games like UNO or enjoy a multiplayer video game like Minecraft or Among Us. Although it’s not the most traditional Valentine’s Day, it can be a fun way to hang out with friends you haven’t seen in a while and make sure no one is left out on the holiday fun.
TIP: Meal Subscription boxes like Hello Fresh, every plate and blue apron are a good option for couples who want to skip the grocery store during lock-down Winter 2021 | DUCKS LIVING | 13
DUCK
LIVING FAIR
As if the process of moving in or out wasn’t hard enough already, the COVID-19 pandemic has added a whole other layer of difficulty to uprooting and living somewhere new.

p u o r g Re p U v e &R Written by Kelsie Heffernan Photography by Isaac Wu 2020 was a year of trials for everyone, and as people, we were tested with every opportunity to be stressed or to dwell on the less than fortunate state of the world. In a place that never ceases to be imperfect, we must find ourselves seeking gratitude and acceptance for the good parts. Often the best way to practice gratitude is to make space for yourself and welcome the act of self-love. Although many of us may not have met our goals for the year due to the pandemic, we should take pride in knowing we were able to get through a tumultuous term of online college and many more hardships! Our mental health impacts every facet of our lives, from our relationships, performances at work and school, and overall happiness, health, and wellbeing. As we adjust to 2021, we should acknowledge that although nothing will magically get better, we can choose to focus on how we grow from and react to the situations that are presented to us.
Self Love
Ways To Be Outdoors and Stay Active While Being Safe In a time where everything has turned remote, it can be straining on our mental health to use screens for so much of the day. Spending time outdoors is good for our physical and mental health because it promotes being active and induces serotonin, our happiness hormone. Social distance hikes or strolls are great ways to enjoy the outdoors, and Eugene has many beautiful parks. Alton Baker Park takes you across the Willamette River and is right next to the campus. Hendricks Park has more elevation and has amazing views of Eugene. If you’re not in Eugene, exploring new trails near you can be a great way to explore your surroundings while staying safe.
Counseling Center Resources
Gratitude Practices: One of the easiest ways to set the tone for your day is to take five minutes out of your morning to make a list of all the things you are grateful for. Practicing being positive about how far you have come and how much support you have is a great way to ease a negative mindset before it happens.
Sometimes we have bigger problems than we could get over on our own, and there are so many great resources available to students who need someone to talk to. Therapy is an effective and useful tool for anyone struggling with their mental health, and seeking therapy is an honorable way to take care of yourself.
Honoring your hunger: Many people may be coming into the new year feeling guilty about their nutrition choices for 2020, but being thankful for our bodies at any stage is an important practice of self-love. Food is something we need, and removing any guilt or negative association with eating can be extremely freeing, especially during stressful times. Rather than starting a new restrictive diet in the new year, it would be healthier to allow yourself one less form of judgment and wstress. Food is fuel!
The counseling center has transferred to online and telephone therapy and is available by appointment only. To schedule an appointment, you can call: 541-346-3227. There are also several counseling facilities across Eugene and Springfield, such as Vista Wellness Center or Insight Northwest.
Positive affirmations: Congratulating yourself on accomplishments, even the smallest ones, is extremely encouraging. After finishing a big project or going for a run, practice being proud of yourself and rewarding your own hard work.
The Let’s (Tele)Talk drop-in service is available through zoom links provided on the counseling center website: counseling.uoregon.edu/letstalk. This service is great for a student who has a specific concern or would like to test the waters of counseling.
In the event of an emergency, the crisis line is available after hours from the same number: 541-346-3227.
