Since the first COVID-19 case was recorded in our country in March, we’ve all been on lockdown. Students have been studying online, parents working online as well, and others just staying home with family, or alone, with nothing to do. Some say it’s boring because they no longer get to see their friends, or eat out, and some are okay with it because they like staying indoors, but they also miss their friends. It’s still a situation where the many of us want to go out but can’t, we’re all sitting at home waiting for the end of the coronavirus. Looking at the good side of this period, you’ll realise that most families that never or barely hang out together before are now doing the opposite, and I think it’s pretty great. The biggest families are the luckiest, we all have to admit that when there are more people, there’s more fun. We all miss social interaction, I understand, but I personally think staying home isn’t the worst because we are saving lives! Let’s all remember to STAY home as much as we can, KEEP a safe distance, WASH hands often, COVER mouth when coughing, and CALL in case of symptoms!
