Give your story a title.

What item summed up my COVID experience

What sort of object is this: text story, photograph, video, audio interview, screenshot, drawing, meme, etc.?

This is the TV in my room. I bought this with money I made last summer, I would say it was definitely a good purchase. I also bought a fire stick for around $20 which allows me to use streaming services.

Tell us a story; share your experience. Describe what the object or story you've uploaded says about the pandemic, and/or why what you've submitted is important to you.

I decided to choose this item because in the lockdown stage of quarantine, besides working out there was not much else to do. I read an interesting book during that time as well but my TV is definitely what I got most of my entertainment from for a while.

Use one-word hashtags (separated by commas) to describe your story. For example: Where did it originate? How does this object make you feel? How does this object relate to the pandemic?
