WFH is more than taking your work from office and do everything at home. The workload might seem the same, but in fact, working at home has bigger responsibility, with more tasks need to be done in quite short time.
First 2 weeks, I still took it as a holiday that I've been missing all this time. Sleep longer, enjoy my favorite book while drinking a cup of coffee - which I hadn't done that for months. Glad it wasn't for years already. Having longer quality time with my new family even though I couldn't visit my mom as we live apart. I used my somehow free time to try any recipes I've saved for long time. Of course, I could do all of them as classes were kind off for sometimes, as my students requested to have only homework during this transition. Some of you may understood this situation. Not all students could afford well internet connection to have online class. So I have to think another option in order to deliver my lectures.

3rd week, 4th week.
I am already fed up of being only at home. The furthest I went was my front yard where we picked up some mangoes. I wish I could see some old faces, could talk directly not through social media or teleconference. I stopped checking my student homework, I avoid working on my paper - as usually I would write while sitting somewhere beside home.

The weeks after,
I got it when people start going insane. I start disturbing anyone at home as soon as I get bored with my work. Around 2 pm, i would go around my home and started to talk, or just disturb anyone I could find was doing anything. It was insane seeing myself going insane.
I know I should restart whatever I've been doing from the first week till this moment.

There are some memes on the internet where it stated that after this pandemic, people would be lining up to join master chef, as everyone seems to be so into cooking. Somehow it sounds sarcastic.
For me, cooking is a fun thing to do, as far as I am not in hurry to cook or for something else. When I successfully cooking something, of course I would be proud of my achievement. I think those people ( who start enjoying cooking) may think the same.
No one knows when this will be over. What we have to know, is how we should spend this time wisely, productively. Don't you think so?
