Reflective Essay

It's been more than two months since our country went on quarantine/lockdown

because of the pandemic. This is a very unusual experience for all of us that results

boredom to us. To keep myself busy, I always watch different series, doing school

works, listening to music while doing home workouts , and finally had a chance to

continue to practice doing calligraphy. Sometimes, I watched satisfying videos about

painting to kill boredom.

I sometimes enjoy this period because you get to learn new different things. Like

I learn cooking, living without meeting people, and my great interest in reading. But

sometimes it turns to boredom. But spending time with family is the best feeling ever.

Today, I am addicted watching different satisfying videos especially about art

such as painting, drawing etc. I tried practicing to draw some basic techniques but it

always turns out ugly. I play also the app color game "Flower Mandala coloring book". I

super enjoy doing all of this because it helps a lot taught me somehow to enjoy even at

small things.

This lockdown somehow has made me a better person. I have always been

considerate towards others. but now I am more sensitive and sensible. Having said that,

I now value the little everyday privileges I have. Plus, it’s a great time to do certain

things I always wanted to do. This pandemic will surely end, but believe me we won't

get this time to rediscover ourselves and relive the moments with our friends and family.

Be a child again and let yourself go free. Stay Safe and Stay at home, Follow the rules,

try to have patience, and remember to be grateful.
