LIVING THE i LIFE: ‘I am finally getting time to explore my hobbies'

I try to wake up early during the lockdown. But my sleep schedule has been completely disturbed. I work for sometimes in the morning and then take an online class. I take the classes and devote some time for hobbies to distract myself from the current situation. Harvard has a series of free online classes, and so I took one. I also am taking French classes. I like to mix music together. I mix in the afternoons if I don’t have to work. I’m very grateful that I’ve been able to make three mixes over the last three months. It’s a passion of mine, and have finally got the time to explore that hobby. 

I like to watch the sunset in the evenings. It has a calming effect on me. It reminds me that everyone has their own extremely complicated life and I’m just a small part of this massive world. When it’s cloudy, I like to watch them passing by. It’s a metaphor for life. It reminds me that whatever it is, it will pass by. It puts things in perspective for me. It’s been tough for me because there’s a lot of uncertainty regarding my future. I was to go to London to study, and that is now in flux. We have been forced to come to a standstill. It helped me think of my past in a better way.
