Quarantine

i spent the last week in quarantine (got covid from a classmate somehow 9_9 but i'm fine now) and i wanna lay my thoughts abt it somewhere. and this is as good a place as any.

i think because i was very asymptomatic, probably from having most of my vaccines on point and taking care of myself, it felt very... OK. like it wasn't good but it wasn't bad. i already have a big sort-of desire to be a shut-in and just live in my room for days, but this felt different from that. i think its because instead of me wanting to stay in my room, i had to? it gave it this odd sort of feeling. even moreso because as i said before i had zero to no symptoms after i got quarantined. it felt like i was in like, a very fancy prison or something haha. but still.

it felt lonely, but not really. i had my laptop. but i also couldn't draw, because i don't have a table set up in my room, and i need that stable support for my tablet. so i just stayed in and played games all day, sometimes watched a movie/show/video or two, and generally stayed a lazy bum in my bed.

unrelated but sort of also not unrelated since i thought of it while writing, was anyone else really fond of this music video while younger? like i had a deeeeeep fascination for the concept in it, and almost kind of envied the girl in it for being able to stay in her room but also draw and go "outside" with her tech like that, even if in a sort of doomed situation and all. dunno.

hopefully staying in for a week doesn't have much of an impact on me, i did miss quite a bit of schoolwork, but i mean it on more of like an emotional/personal level i guess, but we'll see how it goes and i'm also pretty ok right now so it's probably fine. :9
