The corona virus started in Wuhan, China and gradually became a global pandemic. The atmosphere of the global pandemic was becoming frightening. My final exam was about to start then. After some corona infections started appearing in our country Nepal as well, the government of Nepal issued a notice on March 26 for a nationwide lockdown.
I was disappointed and I haven't met any friends personally since then. It was very difficult to spend the first few days after the lockdown. I study in class 5 at Sifal Secondary School. Nowadays, online classes are taught. My teachers send homework online. Now let me tell you what I learned in lockdown.
First of all, I get up in the morning and help my mum with her work. My classes start at 9:30. My mother makes some sweet breakfast before my classes and also delicious lunch. I write two pages of handwriting daily and read for 2 hours. I draw pictures, meditate, do yoga, dance, read children's stories and jokes in magazines. Lockdown provided an opportunity to learn a lot about making tea, cleaning the room, washing small dishes, and washing vegetables. It gave me time to learn household work. Covid-19 pandemic is also increasing in Nepal. To avoid coronavirus, stay at home and wash your hands with soap and water from time to time, do not go out for unnecessary work, wear a mask whenever you go out, maintain a social distance of 2 meters, apply sanitizer on your hands time and again and do not touch your nose and mouth.
In the end, may everyone who is in isolation have a happy time. I wish everyone good health and the global pandemic of Corona to end soon!
