It’s been a year since the pandemic started. The world has completely changed, as well as the way we live. What was once normal became abnormal and what is not normal became our normal.
My whole pandemic experience is spent in
our home’s comforts because of the government’s implemented lockdown to prevent the further rising of cases. The lockdown was my first such experience wherein I had to stay at home for a long period. At first, I felt the feeling of euphoria since I wouldn’t go to school and just spend time at home. Weeks and months passed by the reality started to sink in, the thoughts of mine of being able to go out and hope that the situation to become normal once again.
The novelty of being at home doing things
every day, again and again, makes me unhappy and bored at the same time. To begin my day with I wake up in the morning fixed my bed and get ready to take a bath then I would help my mother to cook breakfast for the family. After that I would do the dishes then I would start cleaning our house. Subsequently, I would help my grandma or my mother to prepare lunch and again I would do the dishes. This routine of mine is being repeated like a winding toy or simply a clock that the actions are all the same and repeated. However, over time, I found ways to cope up with sadness and boredom, such as spending time with my family and discovering things at home. I realized that the pandemic gives me more time to try or discover new things such as being a kpop fan or listening to kpop or simply the things I loved or hobbies that had been swamped by school works. I started playing guitar and ukulele once again, and somehow, I felt delighted and free. Furthermore, the pandemic also helps me to be mentally and emotionally matured to things, in addition, the pandemic taught me to love myself and my insecurities also to be a better version of myself, so I started to eat a lot, like every meal I eat as much as I can and I exercise at the same time to achieve a normal weight and a healthy body, that I can’t do in the past years because of school works and stress. Above all, for me, the pandemic is not that bad at all, because it gives me more time to spend with my family and creating memorable things and experiences that we will all cherished forever.
I clearly understand how difficult our lives
must be in the middle of the pandemic, the pandemic may have brought us negative effects or impact but let us all look up to its positive side, which is we learn to love ourselves; we spend more time with our family and we became more mindful about our every movement. In addition, the pandemic also helps us to try and discover new things or simply going back to the things we loved, that we can’t do in the past. Also, there are times were challenging, we’ve faced so many problems and hardships but we still found happiness and the way out of any problem that we’ve faced. The pandemic made us realized that we are strong and mature enough, no matter how hard our situation may be, there is always a solution or way out of it. There is a quote from Walt Disney “After the rain, the sun will reappear. There is life. After the pain, the joy will still be here’’. No matter how hard our problems will be, there is always a solution to every of that and happiness will come. The pandemic taught us so many things and life lessons that someday we will all use and remember.
