I stopped counting the days since life as we knew it ended. Since then, everything revolved about “survival” and preventing getting sick. Many of the things I liked are no longer available and I have to settle for what is. Unfortunately, this also meant stoppage of one of the longest things I’ve been consistently doing in my life—working out.

Apple Chronicles: More of NYC
New York City is one of the most influential, popular, and richest cities in the world. Even if I had more than a week to spend, there’s only so much I could cover, especially that I’m just using the public transport and my two feet to explore. Among those that I’d like to highlight are:

The next stop on our tour of the East Coast is Boston, the capital of the state of Massachusetts. It is one of the oldest municipalities in the United States and site of various historical events in the country.

We’re now entering the third week of our community quarantine. We’ve only done it for two weeks but it felt like two months already!
Signed up for my first ever virtual run
In light of running events getting postponed or cancelled, I decided to sign-up for my first virtual run!

Unless you’ve just awoken from a long sleep, you’d know that everyone is wary of the COVID-19 virus, better known as the “Corona virus.” And while infections outside China is relatively small, everyone everywhere is feeling it’s effects, and it’s taking its toll on public events.
The 2010s: The Decade That Was
The 2010s (2010-2019)—the first full decade that I documented my life. Here’s my attempt to reconcile what happened during the decade that passed.
2019: A Summary
2019 is one of the most challenging years that I’ve had—both from an emotional and financial perspective. Nonetheless, I’m glad that I survived it in one piece! Here’s a look back on how my 2019 fared:
