Blog 11 - Dina
Unfortunately, I have run out of things to write. I am bored. I am locked at home with almost nothing interesting to do. My life has become absolutely boring. Nothing new is happening. I do the exact same thing every single day. I have not left my house in over two weeks, except to go on a daily walk around my neighborhood. I have not gotten in my car once. I’ve been thinking about going out for a drive, but then I get too lazy or tired. I am literally too tired from nothing. So basically, what I think my problem is that I have no motivation to do anything because every day is the same. All I do is sleep until 12:00 or 1:00 in the afternoon, do homework when I can finally force myself to do it, and then workout in my living room. There’s not much to my day. I don’t even watch movies or tv shows, I just watch youtube videos once in a while because I get bored so easily I lose interest so quickly. I think I’m going to start watching a tv show series to give me something to do. My favorite tv show series is Gossip Girl. I think I finished the series at the end of sophomore year of high school. So, I think it has been enough time where I can rewatch the series and not remember everything that has happened. I also want to try to start painting again. I have all the supplies, I just need to build up the motivation to actually move from the couch and do something. My mom also bought me a book about self-care a few weeks ago that I never got to read so I hope I can read that. I have so many things I want to do like organize my room and read, but then I just can’t force myself to do anything. When I’m inside I have a headache all the time, not sure why. Maybe it is because I’m stuck inside all day staring at my laptop or phone. I sleep enough and I drink enough water so I think it is because I stare at my screens. I talk to my friends on facetime at night. We do a group facetime and we play multiplayer games together. We just found out we can play cards of humanity, so we’re going to try that tonight. Those games are probably the only fun things I do now. We get very competitive, it’s probably one of the only things keeping me from going absolutely insane. I would say the most exciting thing my mom and I have done in the past week is probably ordered delivery from Uber Eats. We did this once, yesterday, because my mom is really suspicious of food delivery. We got amazing chicken burritos from our local Mexican restaurant. Hopefully we can get more delivery because I’m getting bored of just my mom’s cooking. I’m sorry this blog is super boring to read, but I have nothing better to write about.
I am in the same boat. Doing nothing in quarantine has made it very difficult to come up with anything to write about. Finding any motivation is near impossible. I find it hard to even get out of bed now anytime before 12. My friends and I tried that cards against humanities online too and it was actually a lot of fun. I can't imagine what this quarantine would be like if we didn't have technology like facetime. I called my grandma the other day and she mentioned one summer during her childhood they had to quarantine because of polio and the only contact she had with friends was talking to her next door neighbor through a fence.
