How has your everyday-life changed? What do you do to fulfill your day?
I started this quarantine in "sleep mode", so at the beginning I didn't see my life much changed: I lived my first week as if I was on holiday, waking up late, laying on my bed all day long, watching Netflix and scrolling through social medias. Then, once I fulfilled my laziness and got over the stress I accumulated between exams and the upcoming graduation, I started scheduling my days, giving me deadlines and goals. I still do that. This is very satisfying, because I am able to schedule my day with my needs: I spend most of my days working to some school projects and studying for exams, but without the usual anxiety. On weekends, I tend to read a lot, do some exercises (I jump rope) and think.
Your work is built on creativity. While we’re all in quarantine, what is your solution to keep on being creative? Where do you find your inspiration in this moment?
I schedule, I read (it's the perfect occasion to read those books I bought many time ago and left pending, because I thought I did not have time to read them), I stay updated, I follow my horoscope, I listen to a lot of music, really, a lot of music (not only my favorite genres), I catch up with my dears and friends, I wonder and watch movies!
What is your biggest fear right now?
I think it's obvious that I'm worrying about the health of people I love who live far from me. But I also fear that I could have to spend some time in a shared environment with people I don't like and who give me "bad vibes".
What will you do once all of this is over?
I'm having my best time trying to figure out what I will do. I can't wait to live it!
