14 + 14 = 1 month of being quarantine in my rent house


If you’re Malaysian you will understand the chaos that happened in March 2020 which continues till April 2020. Well, the chaos that I meant was Covid-19. It was a disaster to me. Why? This virus is harmful and it can cause death if you take it lightly. Because the case had risen to 2000 cases, our PM decided to order us to restrict our movement. This thing called Restricted Movement Order (RMO). Everyone cannot go out freely without any important purposes. Fuh, suddenly I am so grateful because we can set our foot freely out of our home before this without worrying much (yeah still have worries about safety) and go shopping, visiting our relatives and many more outdoor activities we can do because the freedom that we got from being an independence country. Did I sound so patriotic? No actually I wanted to say Alhamdulillah. So I was stuck here in my rent house with another 4 people. My father can’t take me home because he went to outstation and I was very anxious to ride on public transport because what if the komuter that I took contained covid19 viruses? I don’t want to die that early because too many bucket lists haven’t checked.

 So 14 days passed and another 14 days to go. Aren’t you curious about what I have been done within 14 days in this rent house? Am I well fed? Am I good? Am I not going crazy because I don’t have enough data to watch unlimited youtube videos? So here I’m gonna share what activities I had done during these 14 days.

1) I listened to podcasts
Well, it’s only one podcast I’ve been listening to because my Spotify isn’t premium sure it uses data but one hour listening to podcast really makes me feel like my day had been very very productive. The Aida Azlin Shows podcast and really gives you peace and calm vibes. I listened to it while lay down on my bed. I’ve been smiling to myself when they talked about something relatable and funny. I love podcast but I can’t spend all day long finishing all the series because that just so not me. I take things slowly but gradually. I hope you get what I wanted to say.






2) I play game
Can you see the game with no ‘s’ hahahah I’m such a loser and I knew it so playing games would be the last thing in my mind. The only game that I play is Candy Crush Saga hahaha sounds so ‘aunty and uncles’ game’ well, this game do not give you pressure at all. It is just a very relaxing game. Because it can play offline so that’s why I played it almost 30 minutes if my ‘life’ was still there. My target is to reach level 1000 when the RMO finished. Wish me luck!




3) I watched downloaded anime and drama
Well this is common activities for anyone who didn’t have wifi at their home. I just finished VIP which is a Korean Drama. It was a good drama because the plot is not like a typical kdrama I’ve watched before. I don’t want to summarize the drama you go google it!



4) I learn Japanese (Hiragana)
Wow….Wait, this is new thing hehehe. I installed Duolingo which is a well-known application to those who wanted to learn language for free. So why Japanese? I don’t know…it was so random so I just continue. It was smooth at first but when I reached the greetings part, I guess it will take me a week to accomplish the level huh. I almost give up huhu.




Well, those are repetitive activities during RMO. Other activities that aren’t mentioned included listening to music, eating, chatting with housemates, take a bath….yes I don’t study because this is a super long mid break so why would i? Those few weeks before were very tiring and hectic. I need a break and God just gave me the break that I deserved.

I forgot to express my appreciation to anyone that checks up on me during this RMO. It’s not that I was totally abandoned and starving here but living here with no proper cooking equipment and no wifi really makes me barely to survive. Yeah you can say my problems aren’t that big but I do feel it a big matter. Just wanna say that I decided to uninstalled Instagram because it requires lots of data but somehow I see this as an opportunity to get a break from social media. I’ve been thinking of these since long time ago but do not have courage to do it so I think this the time. Maybe a month break and slowly really check out from it.

I guess these are all I can share. Hoping for big and more positive things hit me so that I can share here and sorry for “that one month one post” which I couldn’t accomplish due to busyness as a student. Hope you can forgive me. Till we meet again on the next post. xoxo
