In the beginning of 2020, the world were surprised by the corona virus outbreak. Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered coronavirus. This virus spreads primarily through droplets of saliva or discharge from the nose when an infected person coughs or sneezes. Most people infected with the COVID-19 virus will experience mild to moderate respiratory illness. Realizing how easily this virus spread, right now many countries are in lockdown to prevent it to spread.

Lockdown has affected people's lives and make people need to adjust to the new lifestyle which is to do all of their activities at homes be it work or study from home.

Doing all of our activities at home can make us feel bored because we always do things at home and we can't meet people who used to support us directly in the school or in the office. Realizing that it happened all of a sudden and we still don't have any idea when it will end, make our heads full of uncertainty.

For most of us, being in quarantine is a new experience and can affect our mental health. We've never known a life of working from home, only going out for groceries, and not being able to visit friends or family. While there are a bunch of downsides to this, there are some good things that we can take from being in quarantine such as being able to spend more time with our family that we rarely meet because of work, being able to focus more on ourselves so that we can understand ourselves more and also having more time of productivity because we don't need to spend our time on the way to work.

So while we have been in the pandemic, instead of focusing on the bad things, it's time for everyone just start enjoying the things we used to neglect and maximize our lots of free time for as many good things as possible.

No, it's not like I'm having a crush on you I'm not I don't have any feeling for you (you're not my type btw) It's just because I'm nervous You know that I often feel nervous when I'm with someone I don't really know That is what I feel when you're around It's not your fault And I'm sorry if I ever make you uncomfortable with what I did I'm just feeling nervous But I believe that As time goes by, this feeling will fade And I will get used to you being around  #randomnotes

Pencakar Langit Sampah (Jabodetabek tenggelam dalam gunung sampah) Oleh : Andrea Amalia Salma, terjemahan liputan The Jakarta Post dengan judul Skyscraper of Waste oleh Vela Andapita dan Sausan Atika) Pernahkah kalian menghitung jumlah sampah yang kalian hasilkan? Jabodetabek, dengan lebih dari 30 juta penduduk, mengirim lebih dari 14.000 ton sampah ke TPA (Tempat Pembuangan Akhir) setiap harinya. Untuk lebih jelasnya, limbah yang sudah dihasilkan oleh Jabodetabek selama tiga tahun terakhir dapat mengisi gedung pencakar langit tertinggi di Jakarta, yaitu Menara Gama yang memiliki tinggi 310 meter. Aliran sampah yang sangat deras, ditambah lagi dengan pengelolaan sampah yang buruk, telah membawa area metropolitan ke dalam krisis. Beberapa TPA sudah kelebihan muatan atau menghadapi resiko kelebihan muatan. Dalam waktu dekat, penduduk Jabodetabek akan kehabisan tempat untuk membuang sampah. Krisis ini telah mempengaruhi orang-orang yang tinggal berdekatan dengan TPA. Gunungan sampah yang...

SAWAH TANPA PETANI Oleh : Andrea Amalia Salma (Sumber : thejakartapost.com dengan judul A Land Without Farmers oleh Made Anthony Iswara) Kehilangan para petani merupakan hal yang menjadi perhatian bagi sebuah negara. Jika hal itu terus berlanjut, kemungkinan besar, Indonesia tidak memiliki sisa petani dalam kurun waktu 50 tahun. Apa yang akan kita makan? “Ya, kita akan kelaparan,” kata Adang Parman, 58, seorang petani dari desa Ciburial, Jawa Barat. Setiap hari, bapak dari tiga anak ini menuju ke sawah di pagi hari untuk mencabut gulma, menyirami tanamannya atau memetik sayuran. Sementara anaknya membajak sawah dengan traktor. Adang sudah menjadi petani lebih dari 40 tahun. Bertani merupakan pekerjaan yang menuntut dan melelahkan. Hal ini mungkin dapat menjelaskan mengapa semakin sedikit orang yang ingin menggeluti pekerjaan itu. Indonesia kehilangan 5,1 juta petani antara tahun 2003 dan 2013, menjadi 26 juta, menurut Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS). Kecenderungan ini diperkirakan akan b...
