Zoom calls with strangers a face with no makeup, these are a few of my favorite things
A Tik Tok video covering so many changes that have happened with the pandemic, an original sound by Nina Nesbitt. The video makes fun of zoom calls, not wearing makeup, and ordering food and other items online. It definitely captures how challenging it is to stay home, the struggle of interacting with other people, and the tendency to give into vices as a coping strategy. -

Jewish Melbourne: Stand Up Covid buddy program
"In March, Stand Up founded the Jewish response | Coronavirus (VIC) group, a place to connect people who needed help because of COVID-19 to those who could offer it. After just a few days, hundreds of incredible volunteers sprung into action, helping coordinate food deliveries, delivering care packages, assisting other charities and so much more. One highlight was the creation of an informal 'buddy' system, pairing up people who were feeling isolated because of COVID-19 with volunteers who they could just have a chat and shoot the breeze with." This facebook post provides feedback from the program from people who participated in it. -

Another One Bites the Dust
Insecure work is nothing new but I was too lucky to hop onto welfare when my hospitality job wrapped up for the lockdown. Really feel for my colleagues, international students and others who aren't supported in the same way and have to hustle in exploitative arrangements. No workers compensation, pay well below minimum wage, and increased risk of contracting coronavirus all while keeping the city fed. These folks are holding it down for us without getting much back. Reform is needed. -

A Different Perspective
I never realized how important a simple walk to the store was until Covid-19. To be honest I never realized how important a lot of stuff was. A daily event of going to school was no longer a daily event because of a new virus going around. Going to work was a task I used to complain so much about until I was on quarantine and wished I still had the option to go. Sitting in the house decorating a face mask because the new normal would be to wear them anytime you are outside. The most annoying thing about the face mask would be the scabs I get on my ears from it being too tight. Also,not being able to do a hard activity because the mask will make you struggle to get your breath back. And the worst part of it all is not knowing when it’s going to be over. Everyday we get different results of the amount of cases and different ways we can protect ourselves. The way this pandemic affects you is all based on how you view it in my opinion. Many people took the opportunity to start a business or learn a new hobby. I personally would say a good outcome of it would be having enough time to invest in yourself. During this pandemic I had time to update my resume that way when the first phase was ready I could apply for new jobs. In addition, I got better at braiding hair which is something I felt I never had enough time for. I’ve always wanted to learn since I never liked the way other people braided my hair. When I was younger I would ask for braids just so I could avoid having to get my hair straightened. When I was learning I actually used to just rebraid my hair over and over since we had to be separated from everyone. This outbreak was something that was very dangerous and also hard to adjust too. I'm used to being able to go out to eat every weekend and maybe watch a movie in the theater when I’m done. The corona virus has closed gyms, movie theaters ,indoor dining, casinos and many more. The dining wasn’t such a setback to me because it was summer time but now we’re back to quarantine basically because winter is coming.Sitting outside for lunch will no longer be an option and delivery will become everyone’s new favorite. Being able to do activities outside gave some relief from covid but now it’s all gone. Although it’s a worldwide pandemic, I feel you should always try to make the best out of your situations even if they may seem unable to adjust to. Staying positive and trying to adapt to this new lifestyle is something I’m still growing into. If you take everything as a chance to grow eventually you would look at life differently. -
