How I spent my time during Lockdown

The deadly corona virus disease has spread around the


world. Because there is no drug or vaccine for the
disease, lockdown was the only option with many
countries.
This lockdown, was my first such experience where I had
to stay at home for a long period. The moment when I
heard about lockdown, I felt very happy because I
wouldn't have to go to school then.
On the first day I played some outdoor games with 2 of
my neighbourhood friends. After few days, when I
realized the number of corona patients is increasing, I
stopped playing outdoors.
As days passed, everyone, including me, started taking
more precaution to remain safe from the disease. I
started watching Television and playing indoor games
like Carom and Ludo.
Mother prepared delicious recipes at home, we all
enjoyed it. Sometimes, I helped my mother in the
kitchen. I also read some books to pass my time. I played
computer games too.
As days passed, staying at home started giving me
boredom. I felt like going out and hanging out with my
friends, but I was not able to do so. At this point, I
realized how the birds in the cage and animals in the zoo
must be feeling like. I felt very sorry for them.
I watched news regularly, most of the time with a hope
that some drug or vaccine must have been developed for
the COVID-19. But, every time I got to know that it will
take at least 5-6 months for the vaccine to be developed.
Later, I decided to learn something new, from home. So I
watched some YouTube videos about creating a mobile
app. Very soon, I made one mobile app for Mathematical
formulae. My parents praised me for this.
I also worked on my health and fitness. I became more
diet conscious and ate food which would prove good for
my immunity. I spent some time doing exercise, yoga and
meditation.
Although this lockdown period forced me to stay home, I
felt happy to be with my family for such long period. I
could focus on my health. I learnt many new things and
also developed my hobbies. I just wish that the drug or
vaccine for COVID-19 be developed very soon.
