Two Years in Pandemic
Date: March 13, 2022 (Sunday)
Can you still recall the life that you have before pandemic? How was your life back then? How was your way of living? How about your overall well-being?
Time flies so fast, we're already on the third month of the year 2022. I'm finally 24 years old as well. I still can't believe that I'm already this old. Way back when I was on my teenage years, I feel like the people who were in this age were already old enough and ready to get married. But as I reached 24 years old, I feel like I'm still not mature enough in life. It seems like I still have a lot of blocks missing for me to be fully be matured in this world. It seems like my age paused when I was 20 and stuff. I don't know if it's just me, but I feel this way. Is the clock broken in someway? Or is the earth rotating that fast that it's like a snap and the day will end again.
Anyway, earlier, I watched the news in the television. I had the time to watch though as I feel like watching the TV; this is a rare moment. As I was sitting in the sofa, I heard the newscaster mentioned that we're already two years in pandemic; I still can't believe it. Just so you know, I never thought that I will be able to witness a pandemic. I never thought that a virus would ruin the usual system of the world and will create this so called "new normal". I never thought that things will change in a snap.
2020- The Beginning
The year 2020 was like a horror to each one of us after we knew that we are already experiencing a pandemic. Although I heard a lot that Corona virus has been roaming around China, I thought that it will just stay there, and I also thought that I will be safe as I was not residing there. I also thought that the virus will be solved in a month or two. But little did I know, that happening would change our loves forever. I could still remember that the prices of the alcohol, and even masks that time were still so high. Worst, there were people hoarding those essentials and selling in a much pricey manner. How ugly that happening was.
Not to mention, a lot of things happened in my 2020, I ended my contract in my workplace and wasn't renewed. I was unemployed the whole 2020 and all I was doing was to stay in our house doing unproductive things. Even if I wanted to find a job that bad, I can't because no company was hiring that time due to the crisis that the virus has given to the businesses. What I did was wait for that time when it's my turn and I could finally land on a permanent job.
The year 2o2o has brought so much negativity in my life. My mind was chaotic and all I could see was the blurry tomorrow.
I appreciate the love and support my dearest sunshines.
2021- Getting Used To
The year 2021 was a better year for me. I got hired in a permanent position as I embarked the year 2021. It was January 4, 2021 to be exact. I was so happy that time knowing that I was no longer unemployed and I could finally help my family in someway as they're having a hard time providing their needs amid pandemic. The year 2022 was also the starting point where I get to used to loving the so called "new normal". I get used to wear masks and do other things that are listed on the health protocols.
The year 2021 was also a blessing in my life. I was able to meet Noise and Read platform where I get to meet a lot of wonderful people. I was also blessed to meet Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and the world of cryptocurrency. But then I have also experienced a lot of things in the two platform as well, but glad I was able to keep a positive mind in dealing those challenges.
The year 2021 was also a challenging thing for me as I was quartantined and undergone swabtest.I thought I will be tested positive in Covid, but glad I was not. Another challenging thing happened with the thought that I was once scared of getting vaccinated because I was afraid of the side effects, but glad I gained so much courage to get vaccinated. Above all, the year 2o22 was an amazing year for me even though there are still restrictions.
2022- Two Years Have Passed
Now, we're on the 2nd year of pandemic. A lot of people are already vaccinated. Although there are still active cases all around the world, but good thing that they're quite low compared to the previous years. I'm also glad that I am seeing a light towards the current situation.
Closing Thoughts
Two years have passed since the pandemic started, a lot of things happened in a snap already. I just hope that the cases will continue to decrease. I hope we will be covid-free, and by that, I will be truly happy.
Covid-19, please stay away from our precious world
already.
Yup, two years of prolonged crisis! I hope the worst is over and things will get better soon.
