Quarantine life

My social life, travel plans, healthy eating habits, normal body clock, motivation, and will to live has suddenly disappeared because of the imposed quarantine. Maybe it escaped the country together with the P275 billion emergency fund for COVID-19? If that’s the case, then I’m really jealous! I also want to leave this country badly and finally get my life back! Sadly, almost five thousand Filipinos won’t be able to live their life anymore. It’s really terrible that this corona virus has indeed stolen a lot of things from us. I hope it rots in jail! Or should the president take its place? Just kidding (but not really).

So enough of the subtle satire, my life has already become a huge joke nowadays. But, I can also actually go on and humor my way through my despair and misery because I bet that it could be added to my coping mechanisms. Ha-ha! Im probably already in a state wherein I would do anything that will help improve my mental health. However, it’s such a shame that I wasn’t able to go to Manila Bay and see the amazing white sand, I bet that would fix my mental health problems instantly!

On a serious note, this 6 months-long quarantine has surely affected me negatively in a whole lot of ways. I get sad just by imagining the poor people who suffers a lot due to the incompetence of our government. Sadness with a mix of rage is not really a good combination, and I kind of got stressed about it almost all the time. And even though I would preoccupy myself with tons of Korean dramas, YouTube vlogs, and Netflix series, I can still feel the sadness and anxiety at the back of my mind.

I also had a hard time reaching out to my friends through online communication. I know it’s kind of ironic because social media sites/apps are supposed to be there to make us more connected to other people, but I feel more distant somehow. I also just realized that I often have a tendency to shut people out of my life whenever I feel down and I know that it’s not good. Instead of asking for help and seek comfort from the people I can trust, I still choose to struggle all on my own.

I may seem to be talking very pessimistically, so I would like to apologize for the negativity. I just really can’t force myself to think positive nowadays because I know that a lot of people are really struggling right now and many people even died. In addition to that, the future still seems so uncertain and things still aren’t really getting any better. So, I think that my motto in life right now became something like “think of the worst case scenario so that you won’t be disappointed to the things that are about to happen.” So that’s it for my blog about my quarantine life, im just glad that im still alive right now! I hope everyone would be able to stay safe, sane, and healthy!

“ URBAN APPAREL ”

Street fashion is generally associated with youth culture, and is most often seen in major urban centers. Similarly, it has grown to encompass elements of hip hop fashion, Japanese street fashion, and modern haute couture.

To be honest, this category is my most favoured one since it’s very casual and comfortable; thus, doesn’t take too much time to choose clothing pieces that would match the entire look, a shirt, some jeans or short and a baseball cap - then you’re good to go. Alternatively, this style would be an absolute ideal for people who don’t like to spend hours picking up their outfit of the day but still fancy to look effortlessly fashionable. Supreme, Thrasher, Stussy and WTAPS are few of my best loved streetwear brands.

“Modestly Grunge”

The term grunge was adopted by the music industry for a style of music that had become wildly popular in the American northwest during the early 1990s. However, the fashion industry was also influenced by this genre. People started to complement their look with dark clothes, strong make-up and outlandish accessories to emphasize the 90′s vibe.

On the other hand, I decided to recreate this style based on my personal preference and discard some typical factors by keeping it minimal. The collared-checkered dress made the whole look more feminine than the actual “grunge inspired look”, but the fish net stockings and brown-heeled boots contributed to build a more sharp and edgy aura overall. I personally adore this category since this clothing style does not require any criterion, thus, it allows a person to be more expressive and creative to create a statement look.

Meanwhile, this fashion style is still at its peak in this era. It seems like the society would be up to try other fashion categories, yet the grunge style generation would never be buried nor forgotten.
