Things I learned during the lockdown


Well, everyone has their own experience and realisations during the 2020 lockdown. I have mine too. They are basic stuff. Hopefully they are useful too.




  1. Your hair does not grow as fast or as bad as you think
  2. There is more your home needs than what you want
  3. Your kids are way smarter than you think
  4. There is more junk in your house than you realise
  5. Washing hands frequently is actually a good habit - pandemic or not
  6. Don’t overwater your plants
  7. You can live without your morning newspaper
  8. It takes 3 months to build a routine
  9. Don’t let the kitchen sink pile up
  10. The songs in your iPod/tapes/CDs/LPs are far better than the songs in any streaming playlist. 
  11. You needn’t stop smiling just because you are wearing a mask.
  12. Life still goes on

Cheers!
