Jul 06, 2020 4 years ago

When I glanced through my past, my memories were filled with my friends. When I was chilling with my pals, our enjoyment had no dead ends. If our buddies were with us, we would play, we would laugh, we would fight. But now I would be very happy, if at least they were in my sight. The pain of missing our homies, our mates, cannot be expressed in words. If we all bruvs were together now, we would fly high like just freed birds. Even we are distant places, they all will still be my bros. Our friendship will never cease to grow, cause' they are my amigos.

HOPE

Jul 06, 2020 4 years ago

In amidst of this this unstoppable slaughter, the world is healing itself. There is no other way to be smarter, than to shove the bad old deeds in a shelf. As people tried to save'em selves, the sneaky virus spread. Many loved ones lost their hopes, as their closest ones fell dead. Ancient people were the cleverest, they weren't primitive fools. They fed us with knowledge, and chaos surviving tools. Economies got torn apart, due to microscopic speck. No way to destroy it's evil lair, cause you can't destroy your own neck. There is still a chance of survival, so we must not lose hope. Not only yours, you can save others lives too, with a simple bar of soap

MY QUARANTINE EXPERIENCE

Jul 05, 2020 4 years ago

This quarantine has been a unique experience for me. It was a little overwhelming at first, but as the clock's finger moved on, I got habituated to it. This period was a bonus learning time for me. I learned HTML 5 language, riding a bike and also started my career in literature as a poet. For a lazy bug like me, this phase was meant to be a free trial of hell. But, I managed to scribble down an 11 hours schedule. I thought I was going to flunk it up as usual, which I actually did at the beginning. Honestly speaking, following a time table setup on our own is really difficult. Coming to mental development, there have been a lot of changes in me. This lock down taught me how to stay in the no-panic zone. To cool down my mind, I took on meditation which turned up really good. Apart from all of this, there are many drawbacks due to the “quarantine period”. My sleeping schedule got all messed up, my schooling got left behind. The only way we could see our folks is through “video calls, face time, zoom meetings and stuff like that”. It really affects relationships. Like, after this quarantine period ends and you get to see your people face to face, you're going to feel awkward talking to them. But looking at the bright side, there are a lot of gains. When I used to get to an “offline school”, I used to spend my 8 quality hours there. Coming back to home, there was a thing called “homework”, which was given to me every single day, ate up my time, which I could spend with my family. Things changed when quarantine was introduced. Now I can a lot more time with my mom, dad, and my two siblings. One of the best pros of this quarantine was it enabled me to reduce burden of daily chores on my mom. I also took some basic cooking lessons from her, which were brain bumming, but I preferred it anyway because my main priority was spend time with my mom. Coming to the aspect of health, this quarantine made me kind of chubby and blobby and unfit. So I had to work out for some time to get back into shape. Gradually, it got pinned into my daily routine. I'm glad it did or else I was going to spend a lot of time regretting those hours of I spent in front of television. As speaking of T.V., screen time got significantly increased. Passing time became the prime hurdle during this stage. Binge-watching, playing fortnite, chatting with buddies etc… made time to flow like a river. I got the taste of making pun videos for fun, and I went with the flow. This taught me minor video editing like adding background music, special effects, popping pics in the middle and transitions. But it made my eyes dry, so I had to trim down the number of projects per month to 1-2. One of my biggest concerns is my immunity, so during this crisis, paying attention to it was very crucial and was the key to stay healthy. Chugging on herbal drinks, maintaining a diet, and what not. The only thing in my house I paid a truckload of visits is the mirror. I've been frittering my time by having go's on hair styles which are poles apart. During this year's January I got my head shaved off. As a result, styling my hair wasn't to be blamed on me. Thereafter, I took on my mini career in poetry a bit seriously. I bought a nice pure leather book and wrote all of my 6 poem in it with a fountain pen. I got few off-putting comments on my writing, but I was no stranger to them. I also did get few positive ones from relatives and pals, and they surely outnumbered their foes. I also got a title as the Tuesday poet, because I only write on Tuesdays. I browsed for a logo on the internet, and I bumped into a really nice one. Even though all of these things I can do, my day still feels pretty null. No friends, no hanging out, no nothing. Typically my day used to revolve around my mates. With them no pressure bothered me. I was ready to do anything without breaking a sweat, while my homies were with me. But I definitely wasn't geared up for this. People make huge fuzz about pain losing that and this, nevertheless, I'm sure they never lost contact with their friends. Losing friends is like wandering in the land of depression and misery. All the more so, I took a crack at maintaining contact with them. And I found that my best buggers were exceptionally active on social media. Hence, it wasn't a problem anymore. Now came the hurdle called “online class”. I thought it could be fun. But that was my biggest mistake. Online classes were mind-numbing, brain-dumping and extremely irking. I could have actually gone into coma or get bored to death. I wanted to quit but my parents wouldn't let me. The only reason they were so vexing was, we would have to sit still like a sculpture without moving a muscle or else you would get humiliated in front of the class. If we think you're going to learn something fresh, that's exactly is the thing which is not going to happen. So I had to bear with this too. This was my “crazy and wild” quarantine experience which I loved a lot.
