What did you accomplish during quarantine? - rsx - Jul 24, 2020
Assuming you took up a new hobby or skill to pass the time. Now that everyone's kind of shifting back into the public, schools are reopening and such. I had the time to really work on my car, and fix it right and take my time doing it. I did a bunch of little things here and there that improve my car overall. I didn't even pay to renew the registration all summer, because I knew I was gonna be working on it.
What did you learn/accomplish/work towards during quarantine?

I accomplished being a better boyfriend I suppose. Other than that, I would actually say that I have gotten worse with everything else.

That's good, there's always ways to self improve in a lot of ways. I try to do one thing to better myself each day, whether it's breaking a bad habit or eating a healthy dinner instead of eating out.

I've learned how to DJ (actually just the basics, nothing too fancy) but I can play for a solid few hours with just minor mistakes and I really enjoy doing it :)

Nothing unfortunately. I've been working a steady 50 hours during this crazy time, and don't see that changing.

I just improve my skills and learned few new things.

Yes man, this is the way forward, I like this and find it motivating! Thank you for that!

During quarantine I accomplish nothing. We search for things which do not exist.

I took up professional photography. I already did professional drone videography but just bought a $5k Camera and few lenses. (I use a DJI Mavic Pro 2 for drone as well as mavic mini).

I basically upgraded my entire home office. I now have a 90" standing desk, couch, beautiful lamp, 3 monitors and a 55" OLED TV. Of course, not all purchased at once, but spread out over 6 months. Cable managed everything beautifully with snakes. You barely see the cables :).
I also managed to lose around 20 pounds since COVID started. I also have been pretty valuable to the company I work for, resulting in some excellent accommodations.
Next on the list is GREM :).

Personally I have learned quite a lot about cars and how they work, not to the extent that I could be a professional mechanic but I have no problem working on my own car & I also picked up a project car just to mess around with and use it as a learning opportunity. With this project car I have gotten experience all the way from body work, frame damage, engine bay work, and interior work. I believe it has a blown head gasket so I will soon be tearing the engine apart and replacing gaskets.
I have also brushed up on my software development abilities during quarantine.

I started my service thread during the quarantine. I was always good at talking to people as I had to manage a lot of patients but this was still a learning experience. Patients have no option but to have trust but clients on the other hand need reassurance. My experience here taught me that and Im doing my best to be understanding and kind to everyone that reaches out to me.
