Things you can do at home during the pandemic
Vietnam is facing a new stage in the fight against COVID. Everyone is doing their best to help prevent the spread of the pandemic. For those with restless feet, you are probably used to being on the road. But this can also be a chance to spend more time with your family and yourself. To Ong suggests a few activities that can help you make good use of your time at home during this period.
What do you think about taking care of yourself during this pandemic?
In a busy life with a fast pace, we often do not have time for ourselves. How long has it been since you bought yourself a nice outfit? How long since you truly relaxed with a song or a movie? And how long since you ate a proper meal? This may be the time to show yourself some care. Spend a day listening to yourself. Let your worries go for a while, browse shopping sites for an outfit you like, choose a long movie to watch through the day, and cook yourself a nutritious meal.

Reading a good book during the pandemic can help heal your mind.
As we grow older, we may have less time and fewer chances to nurture our inner world. You may have a job with the salary you want and relationships you value, but there can still be an empty space inside. Books can be a kind of medicine for the soul. This is the time to use books to understand yourself better. Perhaps you once saw a good title, bought it, and then never found the time to read it. Or maybe you wanted to find a book for yourself but never had the chance. During this pandemic, use the time so those books do not sit forgotten.

Learning a new language during the pandemic is also a good idea.
There are many ways to improve yourself, and learning a new language is one of them. A foreign language can open new horizons in many different ways. However, we often feel lazy when beginning a language that is not our mother tongue. Still, knowing another language brings many benefits. Learning a new language can help strengthen focus, improve memory, and deepen your ability to listen to yourself. In the past, work pressure may have been too heavy, so this is a chance to seriously try a new language. It helps you grow while keeping these days from passing by meaninglessly.

Spend more time with family during this pandemic.
Modern life moves quickly, and many of us chase work deadlines while forgetting moments with family. We may live in the same space every day, but we are not together as much as we should be. We grab breakfast or eat something quick before rushing to the office. After eight hours at work, we hurry through dinner and dive back into unfinished tasks. Distance between family members is not something any of us wants. That is why this pandemic can be a chance to close the gap. Cook a meal together, gather for a movie, or simply talk to each other more.
