Some positive things about coronavirus have been that I have had more time to connect more with my family and spend more time with them. Usually my family and I would have events on and have no time to sit and talk and just relax but due to Coronavirus I have had time to do that. I have been able to do cooking, painting and go for walks with my family because of coronavirus. Since I haven’t been able to see my Grandparents, Cousins or Aunties and Uncles I have been able to do video calls with them.

Some negative things are that I haven’t been able to connect with my friends and talk to them. I also haven’t been able to see other family members in case we get them sick or they get us sick.

Coronavirus has been a hard and nervous experience for me because it is a bit worrying knowing that I could walk past or be in contact with someone with Covid- 19 and it’s been hard because I can’t do most of the things I usually could. It has just been the holidays and I didn’t get to go on a holiday or on road trips because in the holidays most of the restrictions got lifted. Over the holidays and April most shops closed but have started to open in May. Some shops that closed were clothing stores, hairdressers and all the other non-essential shops.

I feel a bit lucky to be able to go through this experience because if anything like this happens in the future I will have experienced something like and know how to handle it.
