Oh,
hello... it's already 2020 and I haven't published any blog post since the last
one on 2016. It's not that I meant to abandon this blog, but during the past
years I was not into writing long ass paragraphs in order to update my life
events. I prefer to use my social media accounts (Instagram and Twitter) 'cause
I don't need to type much.
But
anyway, I'm in the mood for a long ass paragraphs now since the pandemic
happened and I must stay at home to flatten the curve. A lot of things happened
in my life during my blog hiatus. I travelled a lot. I went to concerts (as
always). I gained weight, still single and don't give a damn about it.
Life has
been treating me kinda good. I won some competitions. I went to countries I
never been to. I even managed to give myself an unforgettable birthday present
last year. But what is life without a series of an unfortunate events? I failed
to get BTS ticket. Not to mention my trip to Himalaya got suspended. Also,
still stuck in the same office. Those were only some parts of my life events in
the past years that I didn’t share here.
Uhm, I
got myself a brand-new laptop. The first time since my master’s degree. Mine
was overheated and just like that, it died. Actually, I bought this for
personal entertainment purpose only. Like, when I need to stream BTS live or
watching Korean dramas, and to keep my photos. But then I never thought that I
would use this for work from home purpose. I was like, “I’m visionary…”
This
pandemic has changed my daily routine and for a Taurean, it’s not good. AT ALL.
Changes are not Taurean’s best friend. Not even close. I had to change my daily
routine and to be honest, I was kinda bamboozled during the first week. Don’t
get me wrong but I’m not the kinda person who brought works home, and now my
bedroom is the new office. As much as I love to lie down (another Taurus’
trait), I found it hard to position myself as a remote worker. It’s really
challenging I must say.
Our
government decided to extend the physical distancing or local quarantine longer
than the previous schedule. People who reside in the red zone are forbidden to
leave the area which means I won’t be home this Eid al Fitr. I just cancelled
my flight and apparently the refund process will take longer time for about 30
working days due to the high amount of request. Mom also rescheduled her Euro
trip. Well, everybody is affected and being safe is the most important thing
right now.
I do hope
that this catastrophe will be gone really soon as I can’t wait to travel again.
I will never get tired of reminding people how important it is to stay at home
to flatten the curve. Meanwhile, I’m gonna do my job from home and keep myself
entertained.
Stay safe and vigilant, People!
