30-Day Blogging Challenge - I become more productive because of this challenge as day goes by. At first, I was thinking what topic to blog on which eats up too much time, that most of the time, led me to procrastinate. So why not stick to the plan, write something randomly in a quite personal approach.
Since the Community Quarantine has been implemented in Metro Manila, I didn’t go
out not until today. So after a month, I was able to go out and did some
errands. Well, I just needed to but of course, I did safety precautions. I went
to the bank for the monthly responsibility as I didn’t want to pile up my
finance obligations when things get better.
What’s with the outside? Hmmm… surprisingly,
there were still people outside though, I can’t really compare if it is many or
not as I don’t have a point of comparison. There were people lined up outside
the supermarket/grocery stores and drugstores. Some follow the social
distancing of at least 6 ft away from each other but some were not. Most of the
establishments and restaurants were closed, fast foods were available for
takeaway. Less cars but more motorcycle maybe because food deliveries are in
demand nowadays.

Right after I logged
off earlier, I went straight to the bed… err.. no, I went downstairs, put my eye
mask at the fridge then washed my face. Prepared hot milk and 3 pandesal with
butter then went to the bedroom and had a simple breakfast in bed but a fulfilling
one. Went down and got my eye mask then ready to sleep at 6am. After 4 hours, I
woke up – well, it’s longer than yesterday’s so I’m okay with it. Grabbed my
phone and realized that it’s already a month of being at home. So, at noon I
decided to go out for bank errands – thinking
that I have a valid reason once ask at the checkpoint. Everything, went
smoothly – it was lunchtime, no checkpoint, less cars, less people. Bank errand
was done in less than 5 minutes. Went straight to the car, look for a drugstore
as I wanted to buy something for my hair, because a week ago I cut my hair very
short to get rid of straight-colored-treated-damaged hair. Right now, I’m back
with my curly-wavy hair that I wanted to bring back to a healthy life. 😊
After three drugstores,
I finally found one that has no line – we could just park for a while and back
in no time. Since I already know what I was going to buy, I went straight to
that, paid and went back to the car – but before going in, sprayed an alcohol on
both hands and arms. By the way, I was wearing mask.

It was two in
the afternoon when I got back home and still have time to sleep after taking a
bath. But I couldn’t sleep, so I decided to shoot content for TikTok (yes, I’m
on TikTok) – check it out here. I never thought that it needs a lot of effort
and creativity as I was thinking what would be the transitions are for that
7-second video. But that was fun! Afterwards, I made pancakes for PM snack and
tried doing Dalgona Milo on which I failed at first – the culprit, I missed the
egg white that would make it frothy. On 2nd try – it was a success! 😊 These two activities taught me how
to be creative, have patience and more patience.
Of course,
time is ticking so fast when you are pretty busy on being productive and
learning new skills, right? At five in the afternoon, I felt sleepy. I took a
nap and woke up just in time for my 8:00PM work.
So, how are you
guys? How are you coping in this pandemic?
Always be safe.
