11 Ways an Extroverted Control Freak is Surviving #CircuitBreakerSG
And can do another month if I have to…
It was a punch to the gut on April 7: restaurants closed, takeaway only; you can’t hangout with anyone you don’t live with until May 4. And then the straw that (almost) broke the camel’s back came April 21: the circuit breaker would be extended until June 1. For someone who has her life planned in hourly blocks (ok, sometimes 15minute intervals), this was my worst nightmare. All social plans went out the window, and I had lost control of how I was going to live the upcoming weeks.
But I went into a different planning mode: I proactively scheduled out the first 30 days with an event each day, whether it was virtual hangouts/meals with friends, or productive activities. Plus I picked up hobbies I had never tried before.
Here are 11 ways I survived/ will survive until June 1!
- Cook & bake
- Drink… alcohol
- Exercise a ton
- Intermittent fasting
- Record podcasts
- Read
- Write
- Sleep
- Learn, donate & become politically active
