I didn’t think the end of confinement would happen like this. In fact, when I went outside I saw that people were going out a lot . The end of containment does not mean the end of the virus and I find that people are not aware of this enough. Even if people are wearing masks, there are many situations where we are very close and there is a possibility of contamination.
I went out a few times to celebrate the end of the containment with my girl friends who had missed me. We go outside and we talk using a mask for sure ! As we are in a risk zone, the parks are closed, so we decided to settle on a square: place of victories. One of my favorite places.
I don’t get out that much, but I enjoy going out when I feel like it.
First, there are many definitions of freedom: the situation of a person who is not dependent on someone, or who is not locked up, the power to act without constraint, etc. However, the main idea remains the same and the feeling of being free can be felt in different ways: Physically and morally.
So, one might think that we are locked up because we can’t physically leave our homes, that we are denied our activities and access to schools or educational institutions. Our freedom to go outside whenever we want is reduced to regulated outings could make us think that by being controlled we are far from being free.
However, morally we are far away from society, in fact all the codes we have to respect are no longer respected because we stay at home, all the advertisements that influence our society are not useful and our compulsive buying impulses are “controlled”. To continu, we can say that locked up at home and our access to the internet, we are free to make our choices, to behave as we wish and nobody dictates or imposes “codes” on us. Moreover, the look of others, which pushes many people to behave in order to enter in the society , has no real effect anymore. (except maybe on social networks, but that’s another subject).
It was my point on vue about the liberty during que quarantine.
Strongly disagree. What about people buying insane amount of things online? Most stores are having insane sales. People “breaking” the rules influence others. Look at Bois de Boulogne, huge gatherings of people, not a lot of masks, not a lot of distance between them, people are still behaving as they want and I think there is social pressure to act this way…
Since the beginning we have observed several cases and steps. In fact, at the beginning people were rather indifferent and didn’t care too much then they understood and the confinement has proved its worth however these days since the announcement of the de-confinement on May 11th, people are changing their behavior.
As I say, since that date people have become more relaxed and it is not uncommon to see crowded markets or people on family walks in crowded places and also clandestine “parties”.
I’m quite disappointed because we’ve held up so far…
However, I too am looking forward to a “normal” life, but I think the world will be a very different place. I’m thinking in particular of public transport or clothing stores that will have to find ways to provide health security. In addition, our daily habits will change drastically… no more hugs, and no more handshakes to say hello.
Anyway, my post today is quite short because I broke my phone and all my notes of the week are in it, I’ll get it back soon so it should be ok. Bye
People say that I don’t get enough news from them, this period of “confinement” made me think about it, so I decided to get more news from my friendly relationships with people, my friends from school, middle school, high school and hobbies.
At the beginning I thought it was a bit ridiculous to make aperitifs in video conferencing, “it was reserved for adults”… But why not?
Anyway I decided to call each other and take the time to discuss together, everyone seems to be excited by the idea !
I’ve already given it a try and it’s great even if sometimes we don’t talk, the fact is that we missed the moment together.
Although I’m so excited to see all my friends again but I’ll take precautions. In fact, May 11th is the date planned for the “de-confinement”, is the date on which people will be able to go out without “attestations”. I hope that people will be careful and that they won’t all go out at the same time and that they won’t get together for useless things.
However, I’m afraid of people they don’t seems to understand because even in confinement we see open markets with lots of people as if everything was normal As if the fact that it’s “nice weather” or ” wahouu the suns back ” is a valid excuse.
Oh yeah, I almost forgot! My mother made masks to protect us and they’re pretty nice.
The main function of the mask is to protect us, however customizing and creating your own masks can make the thing more fun to lives the situation. But always keep in mind that it is not a fashion accessory but a sanitary protection.
Before the confinement I spent a lot of time on youtube because I think it’s a social network that offers you good content that you choose to see (not like on TV).
Also, the video creators work hard and constantly to offer us qualitative videos that appeal to their audience. However, since the confinement, I have noticed that videos on youtube are more and more redundant. Of course, it’s not fortuitously, the containment have consequences at all levels.
In fact, since the containment the famous “youtubers” that we see everywhere on social networks can’t leave their homes which stop and block them in the creation of their content especially for those specializing in travel.
For example this Youtuber
Moreover , they can no longer receive or travel to their friends’ homes, which is sometimes penalizing when they have to create content together. ( I didn’t have an example for this but I know lot of youtube are in this case)
they are a litlle bit forced by the situation, big and little youtubers are forced to reinvent themselves and find something else to share. Some don’t want to change their content and find solutions to get around the problem such as video conferencing. ( I also do that to talk with my friend) So finally they seems to be more authentic and closer to their followers. Many famous people, influencers, or lambda people have turned to other ways to get attention and to not be forgotten by making famous “TIK TOK” or Instagram lives. haha. ( I say that because some friends are doing that and it’s funny but very good and I support them) Although their videos are less attractive due to their lack of originality and renewal, but the views of these you-tubers don’t drop.
This is due to the fact that people have more time to click and watch their video to be entertained. Without doubting, those who win are the you tubers” well being” for food and sports. It’s a success ! Maybe I’ll have to become a sports coach to be famous on youtube lol.
Today is Wednesday, March 25th, the tenth day of “containment”.
Hi, everybody,
Today is Wednesday, April 1th , to be true, I am no longer counting days…
First of all to talk about the man who was affected by covid-19 in my building , i’m not sure how he is going but he’s in a hospital now…
Secondly, my cooking day is on Monday so I cooked two vegetarian pies ( unfortunately ,I didn’t think to takes pictures , but you have to imagine some very good pies haha ).
it’s not from me but it was as beautiful
My week was very much centered on « Parcousup » that I (thank God) finally finished! I hope to have what I have choice.
To finish, still like last week I practice sport but I have less and less motivation so for that I call some friends and we do sport together 😉 In fact, we have install an application which name is Houseparty and some time we talk together.
Moreover, I found myself a little occupation with my sister we made bracelets :
Good bye, and if you want a bracelet contact me because I have time to loose ;).
Hey, everybody! Today is Wednesday, March 25th, the tenth day of “containment”. We’ve been limiting our movements for over a week now, we’ve been trying to be careful but sometimes I go outside to get some fresh air to get some exercise.
Sometimes I get bored even if there is work to do (I find it hard to keep up with the work)…
My mother has decided to put us in the kitchen to do something with our days. Everybody cooks at least once a week, for example Monday it’s mom, Tuesday it’s dad, Wednesday it’s me, Thursday my brother and Friday my sister and so on…
Ps: I just learned that a case of Covid-19 has been confirmed in the building where I live…
