I know everyone here probably wants to shy away from the current craziness going on in the world, but I'm gonna bring it up anyway. How is everyone? How badly has COVID-19 affected your area? [insert other related questions here...]

I don't know which answer to pick because I'm gaming but that's also my normal routine

I homeschool, so I've just been studying I guess. But with Dad at home we've also been watching a fair amount of movies lol.

Neat! I've been doing a mix of sleeping and watching youtube. I've also been playing Roblox with my sisters while we're on the phone with my boyfriend and his brothers (they've been playing roblox with us while we're on the phone)

It's affected our area very badly. Oof and every day our governor makes an announcement of how much things have changed, and what more actions will be taking place the next day. Most of my family cannot stay home as they're essential employees, as everyone in my family works in grocery stores to supply food for those needing food. I can't graduate this year, my mom has diabetes, and I have underlying health issues that make me susceptible to it. And we have to deal with everything brought home by our other family members 😭 because of this horrible virus, life has changed for everyone that lives where I do.

I try to be as productive around the house as I can, reading organizing, cleaning our house, drawing,writing,etc.

i’ve been rewatching a lot of shows and finding a bunch of new ones, as well as facetiming my friends a lot. i’ve been playing some games too, and occasionally when i’m home alone, i’ll bake or something. and playing my instruments, since we’re still doing lessons over facetime.
not to mention the unhealthy amount of non appetit i’ve been watching, that youtube channel is everything.

Just been writing a novel. We have to stay home until mid-June, so...may as well. ,:D

Australia... It's not too bad, I guess. Online school. No social events whatsoever.
Well, weddings are limited to 2 people. Funerals to 10.
If it's your birthday, you're screwed.
Most of the time I'm working, or studying, but I do make time for fandom.
It's screwy, sure, but we don't have it the worst.

i'm actually in china, south of where the virus started and my i've been doing online school for about two months now and this is my family's 11th week of social distancing.
online school lowkey sucks and i've been having a really hard time, but because we live in such a small town we are allowed to sometimes have small meetings of about 5 people at our school. (it's a boarding school and all the chinese students have gone back to their homes, but the foreigners all live near the school in the middle of nowhere.)
the haven't been too many cases in my province, i think it's about 2000 cases in the two nearest cities, which could be better but it could be worse.
things in my town are slowly getting a little more normal, but that's mostly because we only had 3 cases back in February. we still have to get our temperature checked basically everytime we leave the house, and literally everyone is wearing face masks still
it's kinda weird watching everyone else panic about this now and talk about quarantine, because i went through all of that a month ago and now it's finally getting better here

I'm currently trying to maintain some semblance of a schedule, because if I don't none of my school work will get done.

skyscraperarrow12 · 6/15/2020 9:56 pm

i've managed survive junior year... thankfully

General Zura · 6/15/2020 11:23 pm

Me too. I didn't think it was as terrible as people were saying, though.

GalaxianExplosion · 6/16/2020 2:43 am

I don't know which one to pick--
I mean, I do a fair amount of everything. School year's over, but I still self-assign some stuff, so that's the homework part. I do some gaming, but I don't consider myself a gamer. I sleep too much, watch too many YouTube videos for my own good, and I keep my usual routine, which is do nothing productive and try to write, draw, and roleplay
The only thing I don't do is be on the phone with friends 'cause what friends lol

Rysun · 6/16/2020 9:53 am

Hmm Galaxian, what games do you play?

GalaxianExplosion · 6/16/2020 1:44 pm

Just one mobile game, sometimes Uno xD. I use more than enough time on that mobile game so xD

Rysun · 6/17/2020 8:49 pm
