“I study in a college in Bangalore, India and got to know of the coronavirus scare
in early March…Fortunately I booked bus tickets and went home (to Hyderabad) immediately, a week before our country went into
lockdown. Some of my friends were not so lucky and were stuck in flats or PGs
near college and could not go home.”
“…people have been destroying the world many years and this virus is a second opportunity for future generations like my generation.”
“疫情在家约了小伙伴每天锻炼，做超累的HIIT，梦想着能暴瘦15斤，然而现实总是残酷的，可能是太能吃了，到现在还没有完成梦想的1/5 […] 种花算是我少有的户外“运动”，可以放空大脑，好好放松，不过令人崩溃的是，我种的花一个都没发芽，希望房东不要打我。隔离期间的生活就和流水账一样，其实我有点喜欢这样的生活，但还是希望疫情早点结束啦。”
“疫情这个坏事，在我们家反而成了好事了。[…]我就说，要不咱俩直接跟他说了吧, 择日不如撞日，反正因为疫情什么也干不成，还不如把这件事情给办了。[…] 我和姑娘一人拽着他一只手，我就跟他说，孩子是同性恋。老公一听见这三个字，眼泪立马就流出来了。”
“一开始焦虑，之后焦虑不安转换为画画 […] 我有时间来多创作作品，画了更多时间陪孩子老婆家人.很好.”
“caused me need to move out from my student dorm and find another place to stay locally.”
