Try These Four Fun and Free Activities with Your Friends this Weekend

Have you and your roommates exhausted every board game in the apartment? Have you played every video game and every other group activity you can think of? If so, let us recommend five activities with your friends you may not have gotten to quite yet.

Become Artisanal Bakers over Night

We’re not suggesting you can become professional bakers in a single evening—but you can make some delicious bread using three ingredients that you probably already have on hand. This recipe from Our Best Bites doesn’t require kneading and rises in the fridge overnight. Just form the loaves on Saturday night, then bake them early the next morning. You could even drop off loaves with friends who live away from you to show you’re thinking of them.

Make a Music Video

Maybe you haven’t made a music video since that Spanish project in high school, but we could all use a chance to laugh at ourselves and have some fun. Find a fun song, choose outfits, scout out locations, and get filming. You don’t even need to be a singer; just lip sync! You can find some free video-editing apps here . 

Meditate While the Sun Sets

Nothing like simply watching the sunset to relax at the end of a long week. With so many beaches near us at Beachwood Apartments, you have no shortage of places from which to watch the sun sink beneath the horizon while meditating and clearing your thoughts.

Rearrange Your Furniture

Sometimes, all it takes to make your home feel like new is to move some furniture. Work together with your roommates to switch your couch and the TV or move your bed to the other side of the room. Here are some great tips for rearranging in a way that works and will really make your space feel refreshed.

This weekend, try out some of these fun, free activities with your friends and roommates. No matter what you do, you’re sure to have a great time without having to dip into your savings.

We want to highlight the various ways you can handle your monthly rent, including some exciting benefits that help you build your financial future just by living with us. 1. The AppFolio Resident Portal App The easiest way to manage your living experience is through the AppFolio app. It is a one-stop shop for your most frequent needs: Convenient Payments: Set up one-time or automatic payments using a bank account (e-check), credit card, or debit card. Split Payments with Flex: We have integrated Flex directly into your AppFolio app. This service allows you to split your rent into two payments throughout the month. Flex pays your rent to us in full and on time, while you pay them back on a schedule that fits your cash flow. Full Transparency: View your current balance, previous statements, and full payment history anytime. 2. Build Your Credit for Free with Pinata Your consistent rent payments should work for you. We are proud to offer Free Positive Rent Payment Reporting to major credit bureaus through our partner, Pinata . How it works: You will receive an email invitation from Pinata to sign up for this service. Once you are enrolled, your on-time payments are reported to the credit bureaus. The Benefit: This helps you build your credit score over time without any extra cost. It is our way of rewarding your reliability and helping you reach your long-term financial goals. (Please note: we do not utilize any resident reward or marketplace features through Pinata; this service is strictly for your credit reporting benefit.) 3. More Ways the App Helps You Beyond payments, the AppFolio app remains your primary tool for staying connected with our Anaheim community. You can: Submit Maintenance Requests: Easily upload photos and descriptions of any needed repairs. Manage Renter's Insurance: Access your policy or update your provider details. Stay Informed: Contact the office via text or phone, update your contact preferences, and access your lease documents. At  Beachwood Apartments  , we treat every resident like a VIP.
