How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.

The news about worsening coronavirus news/statistics, and increasing requirements for overseas travel had made me feel anxious at times especially with my husband’s insistence of traveling to the Philippines this year after we have gotten our vaccination. Being cooped up in the house, I have spent time searching for new recipes, learning about gardening, mobile wifi, and Korean on YouTube, and studying Financial Accounting on Coursera. I am pleased that browsing on YouTube, I learned how to extend the battery usage on my phone. How lucky we are that we have the internet. I wonder how people from long time ago dealt with life and boredom during the pandemic. At least this time, virtual learning, virtual meetings, news, watching movies can occur readily because of the internet.
