The COVID Diaries: Entry 15
Welcome welcome. This is the COVID Diaries.
It is day 15 and today I realized that quarantine has totally changed me. Take sparkling water for an example. I used to hate that stuff, like hatred with a fiery passion. I didn’t understand why someone would carbonate water and not add sugar. It was disgusting. I couldn’t even drink it if it were the last source of water on earth, until the earth turned on its axis or maybe I’ve stumbled into an alternate reality.
Anyways, I gave it a try, and I don’t know why I did this, but I am sure glad I did because yes, I love carbonated water. I never thought I’d see the day. My mom just said that it means I’m growing up. Ha! Ya right. It must be the alternate reality thing.
So, the moral of the story is that you should not be afraid to try new things. Even if you have tried something and not liked it before, you might appreciate it more if you give it another chance. So surprise yourself today. Try something you thought you didn’t like. If you still don’t like it, that’s totally fine but at least you tried. Have fun, be adventurous. 🙂
