Pros and cons of lockdown
The outbreak of the pandemic created a turning point in the history of civilisation. While being confined within the walls of our flat, boredom started to take over me. I started to explore some things that I had never tried before.
For a week, I woke up early to watch the sunrise because I have always wanted to see the crimson sky which vitalises sleepy souls in the morning. The sight of the sunrise made me realise that Nature is indeed the best artist.
I tried non-gas cooking and made biscuit cake which emerged as a total success.
My interest in K-Pop songs gradually developed in this lockdown. BTS, Shinee and Blackpink became my favourite groups. I also watched K-Dramas which left me breathless as the plots are amazing.
I have a passion for reading. I read a lot of story books during this lockdown and hope to read more in future. One of the books that became my favourite recently is Thea Stilton and the Chocolate Sabotage.
This lockdown gave me both good and bad experiences. I was able to spend quality time with my family while being apart from my friends for such a long time is heartbreaking. I am eagerly waiting for daily life to resume again.
