Last day of March, an update
It has been the 18th day of self-quarantine. I was not apparently doing full self-isolation; hence two days a week, I allocated my time to do groceries shopping. In light of current circumstances, people have become warier. Many shops have taken a multitude of precautions to lessen the risk of people getting the virus. People are required to keep 1.5m distance from each other, no congregation is allowed. At the entrance of several shops, it is provided with hand sanitizer to which we can apply to our hands before or after shopping. What I like about staying in a small city is people do not seem to panic over the current situation, or maybe it is just their laid back nature.
No panic buying, no toilet paper hoarding. Everything appears to be running well, particularly for the introvert me who prefers to spend time in my bedroom. The odds of getting me bored being inside the house is almost to zero. What else could I ask when you can read novels you like, watch every video on youtube, binge-watch romance k-dramas. 24 hours a day is not sufficient, I would say. I am even sleep-deprived, which most probably find it very strange. I only sleep six hours per night, not because I study studiously, but I am too engrossed watching k-dramas, which its effect still lingers even though the drama has finished. I hate the part of my self that seems very hard to move on. Of every advantage of being at home, there is one major drawback which resulted from my coziness. I can not study. I am probably spoiled or simply let my self be spoiled by the biggest distraction at this age, the internet. I am already plodding that instead of studying hard to elevate my writing and critical skills, I spend my time on useless things. It is probably that I have zero self-discipline that I let my self do everything on my likings. Deadlines are coming up next week. And I do not seem to make any progress, not until the UB is re-open.
I am just hoping, as a global citizen, as master students who in dire need to finish her study, that the pandemic will go away soon.
