Locked up in the Lockdown.

So, we are all locked up in the lockdown and have almost nothing to do, same old, same old. But, I put together some things you could do while staying home.

 Put together your own playlist! 
 Make a playlist for different occasions, a party playlist, a feel-good playlist, the list is endless! Jam to your favorite tunes and beats, and, maybe make your own. There are apps that help to make your own beats, and write down songs.

Get creative!
  Art is a great way to relax and be productive. Draw, paint, model, and become a Picasso. Check out different types of drawings, and tutorials, and draw what you feel like!

Cook, eat, cook!
   This is the most obvious. Making soufflé, or PB&J, and you’ll feel like you are the MasterChef. But, remember, whatever happens, don’t, just don’t make Dalgona coffee. Please, I’m tired of it.

Learn something new!
   Online courses, tutorials, apps that teach you a new skill or instrument,  new information or how-tos, are available everywhere. Courses that provide certificates could look good on your resume, just that, you will need a good WiFi connection. 

Lose weight!
    Come on, you know you have to. Search for simple workouts, or make your own. Put that music on  (maybe from your playlist) and dance away. Not only does dance make you happy, it also helps in losing weight. 

Tidy up! 
    As much as it sounds tiring, it’s equally time-consuming. Arrange that closet, put up a spice rack (that’s a thing), only to find it messed up in just a few days. And then arrange again. 

Binge, binge, binge!
      Watch Netflix( or Hulu, HBO, Disney+, Amazon Prime..). The rest is pretty self-explanatory. 

Clear up that phone!
      Unsubscribe from unnecessary emails, clear up gallery, delete spam, or anything not needed. Time consuming AND storage saving! 

Watch movies, or make your own!
     Good old movies, watch them. Making your own can turn out to be either amazing, Oscar-material, or utterly ridiculous.

Write something!
       A book, a story, a poem, fan fiction, anything! Something Shakespearean, or something Roald Dahl, something kiddish or something horrific. Let the idea come to you.

Call friends and family!
       Zoom or Skype or Duo or, well, just about anything. Call up those old chums or call mom and dad. Catch up on everything that happened. Reminisce about the good old days. Organize a group activity, like a song through a video call. Upload it, or share it. 

Read or play!
      Read books, textbooks, magazines, old newspapers, random ads. Anything. Or play games, board games or online games. Your pick.

There are yet more things you can do! Make your lists, start a journal, start a YouTube channel, start a fire, wait, don’t, or do the most time consuming (more like wasting) thing... Do Nothing! Whatever you do, stay indoors, be safe and even if lockdowns end, stay inside. Make the best of the time you have. Stay home, stay safe. This too shall pass. Peace out.

an ideal world

//an ideal world// what is an ideal world? it’s not being completely happy. it’s not being the perfect human on earth. it’s not being rich. it’s not being popular and normal.  (*gasps) then what is it??       it is about others understanding each other. choosing kind when given the choice between right or kind. it’s knowing you won’t be judged for your actions, whatever it may be. it’s knowing you can trust someone. it’s knowing no one, NO ONE, can take away your freedom, your happiness, your satisfaction. it’s about being content, not happy; satisfied, not rich; appreciative and accepting, not perfect.      it’s about not having and “loving” all the ka-chings and ba-blings of the universe, but the little human things that happen. the yawns before and after waking up, the little jokes you share, the messy hair, the movie nights, the little nuances of life. a world where people accept others for who they are, who they want to be, not shutting them...

the fallen one and the bloomed one.

Image
hi! I wrote a little poem.  It’s about two flowers. It can be symbolic for two people. It’s something to think about, maybe even put a little smile on your face. ♥️✨ Please do share and let me know in the comments if you liked it!  The flower that fell  Was beautiful But careless. Elegant and flamboyant But with an empty mind, And a heart of ego. The flower that bloomed Was ordinary, but smart. Had no colour, no fragrance  But could carry a tune. Silent it may be, but its mind Was a colourful, Imperfectly-perfect piece of art. Thank you so much for reading! Do check out the other posts if you liked this one! Stay wonderful and safe!

Short Story- Neverland’s Secret. Part 2

 Peter Pan grew red. Red.  Red.  He came closer to me. I was scared but acted super cool. He stared into my eyes, like a warning. He smiled creepily.  It seemed like time stopped and me, Tinker and Peter were only moving. I grew dizzy. BAM! Everything went blank and dark... What did they do to me? Where are the other children? What happened to me?      .... I woke up. Heard people whispering, murmuring.. wait it was Tinker Bell and Peter Pan! I realized that they didn’t see me waking up so I pretended to sleep so I could listen to their little ‘chit-chat’. “She has the power, doesn’t she?” Tinker murmured. “Yep, we have to be careful. And also find a way to keep her unconscious till the others are drained.” Peter replied. Unconscious? Drained? What in the world?  Suddenly there was a huge commotion between the Lost Boys and some Creature. Peter rushed outside, with Tinker following him and locking the door. I looked around. There were many childre...
