At the starting of this pandemic, I've wasted so much of time by binge watching Netflix, watching TV etc. Then I realised that "Time is what we want most and we use worst".So I focused on being productive and started learning new things.

-I learnt cooking by watching few YouTube videos and made few easy recipes like momos, sandwiches, pizza, French fries etc.
-As I love playing badminton, I developed my badminton skills by practicing everyday.
-As taking care of our physical health is very important, I started working out everyday.
-Taking pictures of whichever place I travel has become a very important hobby of mine.
-I tried drawing and painting, and then I realised drawing is not meant for me, I was really bad at it
-I love doing nail art, so I used to do it often
-I started helping my mom in doing all the household works

Thank you

Hobbies and skills that I developed during the pandemic || Riddhi pugalia ||

During the pandemic, I've had plenty of time to myself. Rather than spend all my time bingeing
Netflix, I decided to focus on myself and try out several new hobbies.
During the process, I rediscovered a love for creativity and imagination
Here are some hobbies I tried during the lockdown:

1.I started painting and drawing, Mandala art form is one of my favourites and to enhance my skills in this art form I attended few workshops.

2. I found my passion for cooking and trying out new recipies, this was really fun.

3.My friends asked me to try sketching so I even tried thatcout and it came out really well.

4.I made many scrapbooks, greeting cards as I love doing craft work.

5.Applying mehwndi and making our hands colourful is something I really love. I tried new megendi designs.

6. Me and my dad would go for a walk every evening on the terrace of our apartment and the sky always looked so beautiful, with all the colours and patterns, that I couldn't ever resist myself from taking pictures.

7.I did some work outs everyday in order to keep myself healthy and fit, I even practiced karate.

8. I found a new intrest in myself, I started writing poetry in Hindi and English.

9.I have been learning guitar since 2 years and due to the pandemic there were no classes, so I tried learning new songs from YouTube to enhance my skills.

10. Staying at house for such a long time is really boring,I decorated my whole room with lights, paintings, wealth out of waste and photo frames.

11.The best part of lockdown was that I found enormous time to spend with my family, friends and cousins. Playing games, having our meals together made the bond between us really stong.

I loved doing all of these.Though the lockdown had a negative impact on our lives the positive part was really beautiful and all of us should cherish it.

Thank you!!

This pandemic felt so good at first , but when time passed I started to hate this pandemic .

‌I was really bored . I had many other ways to spend my time but I did not .

‌Since I had interest in drawing , I started to draw and paint.

‌I also started to read books . It gave me knowledge and it slowly became a habit

‌Painting and reading books really helped me in killing time and improve my skills in it .

This pandemic and lockdown has a lot of disadvantages but it did come with a hidden a silver lining , which has given a chance to people to learn something new explore their inner self. I am someone who is always excited to try and learn new hobbies/skills! Here are a few  things that I did during this lockdown.

•so yes I too did improve my cooking and baking skills..this something I always loved to do .

•I took this opportunity to learn new dance routines, try new styles and choreograph a few songs. I learned the importance of looking after our inner and outer self and the change that it brings.

• I attended a lot of interesting online workshops.

•I improved my sketching ,painting basically the artistry side in me too.

•I got this luckily chance to spend a lot of time with my childhood friends. Being at home I got a lot of time to spend with my family and we all played various games together ,now it has become a routine and it that part of the day that we all enjoy.

•The love I had for the sky and nature has now come to point where I cannot express my feelings in words.
These are a few things I really rejoiced doing this lockdown!

●One of the hobbies I developed during lockdown is gardening, my mum and her parents always loved gardening. Our grandparents developed their own garden in the terrace of our house in ooty. Almost through the past 40 years, the garden was maintained by my grandparents. I'll attach some of the pictures I took in our garden.

●The hobby of cooking I had before lockdown grew stronger as I had more free time comparatively. I started cooking international cuisines frequently. To be honest, it was a Rollercoaster...... some were the most tastiest foods I have ever had, while some didn't taste as good  as it looked. One of it was cinnamon rolls, it looked so tasty but I sincerely would never suggest anyone to have that, unless you have an acquired taste for cinnamon.

● I attended coaching classes for badminton and participated in city level tournaments. I practiced and improved myself in ways I could in playing badminton

● sky/clouds gazing, I sometimes just would be walking around in my terrace and be so amazed by the patterns I see in the clouds. The view of clouds I get as I am presently staying in hills is just legit beauty, I'll upload the pictures I took. Have a great dayy!

Time is something that we all earn for, so in that way we are fortunate enough to have these lockdown days where we had plenty of time to relax and perform leisure activities.
* A hobby which I developed during this pandemic is canvas painting. I have always enjoyed drawing and doodling but I never knew that I could paint as well.
* I spent half of the time enjoying with my family and played games which made us refresh and boosted us to the core.
* I looked after my pets (birds) which includes cleaning the cage and changing their food and water at regular intervals.
* I have never imagined myself cooking something inside the kitchen but these lockdown days made me do that and I tried out various recipes which helped me enhance my culinary skills.
* I was also driven crazy about plants and trees that increased my curiosity in gardening. And I ended up planting so many saplings in my garden.

During this pandemic I  had more time to spend on my interests, hobbies and passion during these lockdown days. Something that I don’t like about this period is that... As an artist I had a very big break from giving performances.

I spend my afternoon, doing many drawings, paintings, fabric paintings, hand embroidery and also a few crafts and also learnt to put mehandi.

I also tried to compose few songs in bharatanatyam style. I have been learning dance for the past 12 years and I have also done my PG in it.

I spend some time reading story books in both Tamil and English and also sing songs to keep myself refreshed.

I spend my morning time with my plants in the garden and also with my mom playing shuttle or any indoor games and also help my mom in cutting vegetables and a few household chores.

Here is a small video that represents all my hobbies, interests and passion.

Lockdown Days are the most boring. Thinking about it makes me so boring.

# During the lockdown, I started to spend more time with my friends online. We used to have numerous Whatsapp groups in which we spam messages and share our homework. I also play games like Among Us and Fortnite.
Spending time with friends became a hobby for me.

# During the lockdown, I would frequently take pics of the sunset. During school days I had no time for this kinda stuff, but nowadays I have so much time.  I have attached some pics below.
