BACK TO NORMAL SOON?

Back to Normal soon?
This could be a controversial topic in our society.I believe that the majority of us just want things going back to normal or back to a place where we can all have a normal social life or gatherings with friends, relatives and colleagues.

Reading the news and updates on social media platforms, there was a lot of content regarding to COVID-19, vaccine, lockdown or essential purchasing…e.t.c…however, no one can ever predict what’s the possibility of completely going back to normal or when we can start travelling internationally. Many media outlets have been posting and updating online about Ontario students possibly going to school in-person and residential on school campus starting in September 2021. It seems like a good tendency moving forward to a status of “back to normal” which the majority of Ontarionians
(https://slangdefine.org/o/ontarionian-22b5.html)  have been praying for since the unpredictable circumstance began in 2019.

What’s the word to describe your impression if we are successfully going back to normal?
Thankful / Finally / Oh, yes / No More Please / That’s it / Well Done / Let’s move on!  

What is the 1st thing will you do when we go back to normal?
1. Seeing friends and relatives
2. Travelling internationally and across Canada
3. Shopping with all essential and non essential items
4. Visiting friend’s house
5. Dine in at restaurants
6. Taking public transportation to downtown Toronto
7. Road Trip across Canada and the States
8. Taking a trip to Asia
9. Going to casino
10. Seeing animals in a zoo        

Mask on, move on.
Although things might go back to normal, we cannot act like nothing has happened since 2019. COVID-19 should be recorded in our history because of the unpredictable events and dramatical effect. Health and safety protocol and guidelines must follow in order to move on.

Things you don’t want to do when going back to normal.
1. No more hand sanitizer because it dries out my hands since the pandemic started.
2. No more 6-feet apart so we can act like normal humans.
3. No more lockdown, so we can get to meet and hangout with friends and relatives.

 
Pack your suitcase, travel internationally.
In my opinion, normal travelling is not essential and would not be recommended. Before COVID-19 arrived, travelling and taking flights were usually a luxury activity for many people who are not growing up in a first class and middle-class family. Now, it became a fear for humans just to imagine wearing a mask and staying inside a plane for hours or more. It could be an act of high risk during this pandemic.  

Social life with friends and relatives safely and healthily.
Normal social life is a must for humans especially when everyone is also encountering the same situation worldwide. We need support, love and care from others in order to stand up and fight against this virus. Please support each other and stay strong.

Time to have more outdoor activities.
Hiking, biking, driving, jogging…e.t.c.

Let’s enjoy the rest of the summer.

Do not want this again.
It’s a nightmare no one ever wants it to survive.
