2. Add more features to the Forum, Sub-Forum and Topics pages
a) Change the page name of "Topics" to "Posts. There should also be an option to start a new forum or post at the top right-hand corner. This is so that users can request to start their own forum or post for a skill that is not currently in the forum yet so that others can benefit it as well.
b) There should be a sorting feature at the top left-hand corner in case the less technologically savvy wish to access the more popular or recent topics fast, hence a sorting feature would solve that problem.
c) A search bar should be added for easy search.
d) "New Reply" must be added under each comment on a post.

6. Why are people feeling bored at home during COVID-19?

6. Why are people feeling bored at home during COVID-19?

# data[].attributes.body
1. Difficult to find things to do while being cooped up at home. At home, there are fewer resources and fewer forms of entertainment.
2. Need for novelty. Singaporeans generally need more excitement and new things to do in order to keep themselves occupied during this period. Coupled with the inability to head outdoors, they get bored easily.
3. Singaporeans are too used to having the free choice to go out whenever they like and when that is taken from them, they find no joy in staying home and finding things to do.
4. Life at home can be too monotonous, with the same routines and the same people. Sometimes people need new, fresh ideas of things to do but have no idea what to try.

5. What are some social impacts of having to be cooped up at home as a result of COVID-19?

# data[].attributes.body
1. Domestic violence is on the rise.
2. Singaporeans are feeling more isolated and lonely due to the inability to meet people face-to-face outdoors.
3. Singaporeans are feeling depressed as they have less activities to kill their boredom of staying at home. Sometimes, staying indoors for long periods of time without heading out can affect people's sanity and mood.
4. There is more stress among students, working adults and even front-line workers in the midst of these drastic changes.

4. How do you think COVID-19 is affecting people's livelihoods at home?

# data[].attributes.body
"In a survey on the impact of the coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak, 36 percent of Singaporean respondents stated that it had a major impact on their day to day lifestyle. In the same survey, the majority of Singaporeans were satisfied with the way their government is handling the outbreak (Hirschmann, 2020)."
Normal routines are disrupted by the following reasons:
1. Singaporeans are having trouble coping without certain shops and establishments open. Sometimes having to learn how to be self-sufficient now that some essential services are closed, which can be very tough for them. Some are unable to learn how to do the simplest things themselves. Such inconveniences are caused due to COVID-19 and people are finding it difficult to adapt to them.
2. New habits need to be adopted, schedules need to be tweaked. In general, Singaporeans usually do not do much housework, cooking at home or working from home, which can be hard for them to change due to the current situation. For instance, women have to incorporate more housework and cooking into schedules, on top of their work commitments.
3. Family members must have understanding and compassion for one another to live harmoniously. They have to tolerate each other's bad habits and antics and this might give rise to more conflict.

Name: Sherry Tan
Age: 45
Gender: F
Sherry was retrenched due to COVID-19. Unable to find another job and with the circuit breaker measures, she had to stay home and take care of the household. On the other hand, her husband had to work from home. She disliked doing chores and did not know how to cook. Before COVID, they lived a very unhealthy lifestyle. The only time they eat home-cooked meals was when their grandparents come to visit. Otherwise, they would eat out or order food online. A part-time maid reports a few times a week to do Sherry's chores. After the circuit breaker kicked in, the couple could not cope with the changes in lifestyle. Without her maid, Sherry is having difficulties upkeeping her home and cooking. After regular take-outs and food deliveries, the couple realised this was not a permanent solution to their shortcomings as this was also very unhealthy. Sherry finally realised the importance of being self-sufficient and learning new essential skills. For instance, her husband needed a haircut for a presentation but with salons closed, Sherry decided she might have to learn how to cut hair but was unsure where to start. She also wished to learn how to cook some simple recipes. Without her job, she started to feel the boredom of staying home, her mental health was declining, and she was gaining some weight. She wanted to stay sane by keeping herself occupied or exercise but was unsure how to do so. In addition, she did not have the motivation to exercise at home since she was not a very sporty person.

Singaporeans find it hard to be self-sufficient to adapt to their new lives at home and need to practice more self-care due to the lack of new things to do.

2. How do you think the elderly and the disabled are affected by having to stay home? Give some examples.

# data[].attributes.body
During this period of COVID-19, it is encouraged by the government to stay home as much as possible to avoid social contact as part of the measure to curb the risk of infecting the disease. This may in turn cause the elderly to face isolation, loneliness and even suicide especially for those who are not living under the same roof as their family members and in the long run, it may affect their mental health such as getting depression. In addition, the elderly are not technologically savvy and will find it more difficult to stay in contact with their caregivers, family members or friends online. Some activities such as exercising, visiting the Senior Activity Centre (SAC), talking to volunteers that visit their flat, going to community centres, meeting their friends can no longer be part of their routine.

1. Do you think that COVID-19 is affecting the mental well-being of Singaporeans due to staying home?

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, definitely. Many Singaporeans are not accustomed to staying indoors for long periods of time. Due to the circuit breaker, they were expected to stay at home unless they need to go out to buy essentials or exercise alone. The feeling of being restricted coupled with the same routines each day, can take a toll on mental health. Problems such as loss of income, lack of food supply and taking care of children may also take a toll on mental health.

# data[].attributes.body
5. As a student, the daily routines affected are mostly with regards to school matters. We are only able to engage in online lessons (Home-Based-Learning) and not physically face to face in School. This i feel is a less effective approach for me as i much prefer classroom interactions which i feel can help me learn more efficiently. On the bright side, we are able to save travel time and monetary expense on transportation. In addition to school matters, i feel that the COVID-19 situation has caused the loss of social touch because we are not able to physically interact with our peers on a daily basis.
