Second week attending Sunday Service remotely from home. Under the COVID-19 epidemic, fellowship, calligraphy class and all social activities has come to a complete halt, feeling rather isolated even though I was never quite a social animal.
Only left home for work twice this week. My colleague gave me red pockets and that made me realize that the last time I seen her was already before CNY holiday about a month ago!
Have been working from home mostly. Finished going through the boring Chinese dictionary of 4-letter words and done streaming through all 12 seasons of The Big Bang Theory, will move on to more interesting projects this week.
Oh God, please continue to help us through this gloomy epidemic, heal those who are sick and let us not lose our faith or hope in You. 🙏🏻
Worked home for another week to save on masks. Besides eating and sleeping, much of my time was spent going through a Chinese dictionary of 4-letter phrases and practicing Chinese calligraphy by copying the relevant words for a long unfinished project. The dictionary was a gift from my dad when I moved back to Canada after grade 11, he probably hoped I would learn some Chinese on my own, but I never really opened it until now.
The novel coronavirus is no longer a threat, it has taken root in our city thanks to our CE’s stubbornness in not closing the Mainland borders. A tenth of our city’s medical staff went on strike but that didn’t perturb our arrogant CE’s decision.
With the imminent threat of the Wuhan coronavirus and an unreliable government in controlling its infiltration to our city, I have extended the CNY holiday for another week. However, I did go back to the studio on Sat. to do some cleaning and to pack some stuff to work from home this coming week.
It has been many years since I’ve spent so many hours at home in my room. In midst of the Wuhan Coronavirus epidemic fear, the motivation to enter the public realm was low, so I spent most of the time in this CNY holidays catching up on Netflix. Finally watched the second season of Midnight Diner, still loving the series and still making me wanna open a cafe every time!
