COVID, you're making things difficult.

2020 couldn't possibly be going any worse, could it? I make that statement almost because it feels like the right thing to say, more so than it is the right thing to say. Truthfully, I can't remember what was going on in the world before the Coronavirus became the star of the show.

Can you honestly tell me what terrible things were going on in January? I think Australia was on fire and I remember the memes circulating about world war 3 but I can't tell you too much more about either incident or anything else for that matter.

This virus has completely turned the world upside down, shaken it, thrown it about and booted it into oblivion. Our lives as we know it have changed indefinitely, and if that doesn't frighten you like a blockbuster horror, then nothing will.

The terrifying reality is, no one has a clue. Governments to civilians, we're all absolutely clueless. People are bragging about their 'quarantines' and 'self-isolations' but what does it mean? How long are we meant to sit in our bedrooms going quickly insane, overthinking everything and wondering if we'll have a job to go back to when this eventually dies down. It feels like it's a trend right now to socially distance, but how long until people simply get fed up? Until the Government put us on lockdown, it's more of a free for all of doing what we think's best versus what's actually best.

I've been in self-isolation for 3 days now, not because my job has allowed me too, or because I've worked out it's the best thing to do. It's because I've come down with what could be a rough cold, or the Coronavirus itself. I can't tell you if it's the Coronavirus though, because it seems only celebrities can be tested for it in England. After 3 days, I think it's almost safe to say I'm going insane. Although, feeling under the weather definitely doesn't help.

I've drunk my body weight in tea, mostly as I was bored, not because I even wanted to drink tea. I've played enough Call of Duty to compensate for not playing the game in the past 4 years previous to this release. I've set this website up and written two blogs already and there are still too many hours left in the day.

Has anyone actually found anything worth watching on Netflix or Prime? I've been flicking through thinking I'll start binge-watching to help waste my life away in some quarantine hell, yet I can't seem to find anything worth wasting my precious life on.

The screen time report on my phone has rocketed above its average use, and all I'm doing is mindlessly scrolling through Twitter and Instagram. Usually, the idea of sitting around doing next to nothing is appealing. Currently, it's all very 'Black Mirror' and I want out.

I suppose I should end this cry for help with an attempted 'silver lining' comment. I'll let you know when I think of one.
