Positive, negative and funny experiences of this world pandemic.

 HIIII FRIENDS,

This issue is very complex to address, knowing all that it has generated around the world. With my family we have tried to cope with this health crisis in the best way, trying not to go out unless it is very necessary, constant hand washing, always wearing a mask and an alcohol gel. 

We have not seen my family on my dad's side since the pandemic started, as they live in the south of Chile. And on mom's side very little, only in very necessary and punctual cases. 

My mother works in the health area, in a CESFAM in Puente Alto as an administrative, she always comes to take a bath, take off her shoes before entering the house and wash her work clothes. 

I think this has made us all be more cautious with hygiene, acquiring new and good habits. Nowadays it is very common to wear a mask and I find that it is beneficial for everyone, both in winter or when we are in very closed places, such as the subway. 

Now that I am more at home I have given myself the opportunity to do many things that I love and that I gave up doing when I went to college, such as baking, singing, playing with my dog and taking naps.

I don't think I have had any problems with my studies, as I am very organized and I like to learn. However, I like to talk and discuss the topics I am learning about and online I don't have those spontaneous instances. But also, it should be noted that the confinement at home has become complicated, since my study area, rest, leisure and food in the same, so I feel guilty while I rest having the desk next to me and with pending things. In addition, I have to take care of many things, since my mom works, I have a younger brother and pets, I have a very marked routine that sometimes tires, walking my dog, classes, cooking, tidying up, cleaning, studying, and the list goes on. I am aware that my mom arrives physically and psychologically tired, so I try to make sure she only comes to rest. 

I am optimistic about everything that is happening, I believe that we will be able to acquire these new habits in the best way and that soon we will all be vaccinated and always following the rules. 

I think there are many negative things to talk about what we are experiencing as a society, from confinement, unemployment, death of loved ones, not seeing family members, among many other things. 

But I can rescue some positive and fun things, like spending more time with my pet, being able to make myself a tea whenever I want (hahaha) and that my grandparents are using more the WhatsApp application, they send audios and very funny pictures. 

Love to all of you, I hope you are well with your family 💝
