My life during quarantine.

“Living in this world with a mind in outer space.” I can’t really imagine that it’s been 2 years
wearing mask, staying at home, no gatherings and frustrating environment and government. The
enjoyment is replaced by societal issues and grief. We are obligate to wear mask and face shield and do
the five meter distance but only on public places because in the barangays it is not obeyed. Some parent
becomes unemployed but obligate to buy gadgets for their children’s education. The government said
that don’t go outside and stay at home because if you are sick or had a common cold and your parents
have a PhilHealth then automatically you are a COVID 19 patient. However those beggars and street
people are much healthier than PhilHealth beneficiaries. On the other hand we are now robot’s best
friend. We used to hold our cellphone, laptop and computers from morning till we fall asleep and it
becomes our habit. Within a day facing our phone and using social media is part of our everyday routine.
Yes, we can do what we want except socializing personally to our friends and mates, considering that we
are now doing online communication. Every day we deal in so many circumstances that quarantine
caused. Almost all of us are experiencing anxiety, depression and stress. Other than that, I am weak
when it becomes in decision making but quarantine made me realize than I can practice my weaknesses,
skills and talents without limit in time moreover I can manage it. I discover a lot of apps and online
books that may help me deal with this environment stressors as well as I become aware of my healthy
lifestyle in compared to non-quarantine days. I worked on myself improvements for the sake of my
physical and emotional health. As a student all I can do is to help my parents not to worry about my
health and study as well as help them with the household shores. I am both an introvert and extrovert
person thus, the conclusion is that it is okay for me being alone and doing what makes me happy. Taking
everything into count this quarantine brings different effects on different situations and people. It
maybe advantage or disadvantage depending on their age, economic status and responsibilities. We are
living our life but our minds are full of thoughts that will ruin our happiness and the reason of this
occurrence is quarantine.
