Quarantine 7-21 Nov 2020 The Challenge

 First few days wet through without much issue. Trying to keep up with the day to day to do list planned on the first day of quarantine.

Funny enough as I complained that the hotel keep giving us plastic cutlery which was not environment friendly and hard to use, my family sent me some foodstuff and cutlery but the hotel staff or KKM officers took away the spoon/fork and butter knife before handing me the fruits my family sent.

I called up the hotline and was told cutlery was not allowed, not sure why, worry PUS (person under surveillance - yes that is what I am now) go berserk and do harm to self?

Mental challenge is main issue here, when u are locked in a hotel room for 14 days you can only do so much to keep yourself busy. There are times I ask myself how am I going to endure another 2 weeks when going back to Vietnam for work...

The urge to order more food is a daily seduction as that is basically the only thing we under our control, can't go out, can't go gym, can't go swimming...

The hotel allows alternate days to order from Grab food or Food Panda, which is highlight of the day when I see my pre ordered Burger King or KFC being delivered to my room, although cold it is still.. as I have said, highlight of the day.

Yes I did setup some targets like learn this and learn that, but it is a bit hard to concentrate with constant disruption from calls form friends, which I enjoyed most as to be able to interact with someone outside of the room is really like leaving the room breathing fresh air ...
