Being busy has been a coping mechanism for me.
If I’m busy, my mind is not racing nor tormenting me of things, and come the night, I’m too exhausted, and would fall asleep.
I’d want to say that everything is fine – but it ain’t.

There’s another typhoon that is forecast to arrive Wednesday night.
I mean, come on! We just had electricity last Friday night, a lot of areas in our city is still in the dark, and internet is still down for our home, and here comes another storm?
It is said to be stronger that typhoon Quinta, but weaker than the last super typhoon Rolly (Goni). I would be really happy if it evaporates into nothingness somewhere in the Pacific Ocean.

Hello everyone! How are you doing in these trying times? I hope you are still sane and able to keep yourselves safe – you know, while staying at home and always washing your hands…
There has been nothing much going on by my end of the world. Buying supplies has been difficult and exhausting – mainly because you have to buy in larger quantities, and often, the things you need to buy are not available due to problems in the supply chain. At least it was not as apocalyptic as I had initially thought. I mean, the canned goods are still untouched, and I am still able to procure some fresh produce.

I blame all this hoopla about home quarantine… But in reality, I have no one to point the blame to but myself!
To help fight the spread of COVID, staying indoors, and away from human interaction is the best we normal human beings can do.
