Coronavirus Diary

Day 20 6th April 2020

There's 1,158 cases in Northern Ireland, 51,608 in the UK and 5,364 in Ireland. It's awful that people are still being infected and I've no idea when things will start going back to normal. Boris is now in intensive care, so it seems like he has a really bad case of coronavirus.

My internet was meant to be fixed today but unfortunately it still isn't back. My dad is buying a dongle for me to do my work, I'd suggested it ages ago but my dad said it didn't exist. It's a thing that will give me 5GB of data so that I can access the internet on my computer to get my coursework done. My mum got into an argument because my dad had lied about it not being a thing.

I finished my jigsaw when I got up and it looks great, it has African animals. It's very colourful and nice to look at so I'll leave it on the table for a while.

Then I watched a few episodes of Spongebob and I thought it was funny watching Spongebob exercise, it kinda reminds me of me. Like he struggled doing one push up and I struggle with that too. Spongebob and Squidward destroyed the Krusty Krab because they were competing against each other to win employee of the month. It was quite funny.

After that I played Resident Evil Biohazard in VR. It was even scarier today than the last time. I found out that I needed to get the power turned on so that I could use the stairs to the attic. And because I had the bolt cutters I was able to unlock a cupboard which had the missing component. When I was going back to the stairs the girlfriend attacked me and I couldn't get a weapon to defend myself. She literally cut off my hand!

I got the electricity on and I was able to get the stairs to come down. I went to the attic and I got a gun and bullets and I went into another room in the attic and I started climbing a ladder. But then I heard someone coming through the door so I climbed down the steps. The woman came through with a chainsaw! I kept shooting her and even got a few headshots but it took ages to kill her and I was fully panicking.
I went into another room and the dad attacked me and the screen went black so I thought I'd messed up. But then I woke up tied to a chair and my hand was back with a watch thing on it. So they must've reattached my hand or something. 

The son was flicking stuff at my face and it was weird because it actually felt like my face was getting hit with things. The dad tried to get me to eat something, I think it was an ear. Then he stabbed me in the eye! It felt pretty weird.

The family ended up leaving, apart from the creepy granny so I got off the chair. I went to explore a new area and I saw the dad and I got really scared so I ran to the living room. I saw the dad go to another room so I quickly ran to the unexplored area. I think that's where I got the key to the hatch but I'm not sure.

I was going back to the hatch near the kitchen and the dad found me and he was full on attacking me! I was terrified and I tried to get the key for the hatch but I was freaking out and the guy was attacking me. So I had to run away and then go back to the hatch and I managed to open it. The guy was still attacking me but I managed to get into the hole. 

I got to the other end and I saw that I could save the game, so I saved it and quit. It's the scariest game I've ever played! And one of the scariest experiences in my life. I was literally finding myself out of breath and shaky, even ten minutes after I'd quit the game.

It's a great game but I can only play it in short bursts because it's so scary. I get so paranoid, thinking the hideous family are near me. And any noise I hear I automatically think someone is in the room with me. If you like horror and want to be scared then you should definitely try to get this game in VR. 

Then I went for a shower and watched Bondi Rescue when I came downstairs. The episode was the one where the guy dove into a sand bank and became a quadriplegic. It was really sad because he was a dancer and the spinal injury was so bad that he couldn't even move his arms.

I think it'd be awful not to be able to move my legs, but not being able to move my arms would be hideous. I need my arms and hands for everything and I know I'd be devastated if I couldn't move them.

The closest I've came to that is sleep paralysis, where I couldn't move anything. It's happened to me a few times and it's pretty scary. The first time it happened I was ten and I had a hallucination that the door to my bedroom door opened and then closed. I was a kid so I thought I was being possessed by a ghost or demon and it was terrifying.

Then the second time I had sleep paralysis I didn't have any hallucinations and I felt like I couldn't breathe. And I could hear my heartbeat in my ears, so I thought I had some kind of heart problem.

Thankfully I found out it was sleep paralysis. I still don't like the feeling, but it doesn't happen often so that's good. Although anytime I get sleep paralysis now I'm worried that I won't come out of it because I saw a show on TV and the guy had a stroke. It was a stroke I'd never heard of and the guy was completely paralyzed but he could move his eyes and he'd been that way for hours. And if he didn't get surgery quickly enough then he'd be stuck like that forever. So I think it's scary that I could have a stroke like that.

Anyway, after Bondi Rescue I watched House of Games. I also played Hungry Shark and I only need about 7,000 more coins to get the great white shark. I might get it tomorrow or the next day, so I'm looking forward to that.

Then I watched Venom, I've seen it three times now. I watched it once at the cinema and then twice at home. My parents forgot watching it and I remembered them not liking it, but they seemed to prefer it this time. I love the movie so I was happy to watch it again.

I watched The Walking Dead and I really like the new girl Princess, I think she's pretty cool. And I felt sorry for her because she was lonely. But my dad thinks she's annoying. I liked seeing Negan and Lydia back together, I think they have a really sweet relationship.

I think it's hideous that Beta is about to attack with a huge horde. I don't want to wait to find out what'll happen, but who knows when it'll be out with the whole coronavirus going on. I wish they could all do the editing from home, but they aren't going to do that; so it could be ages until the final episode is out.

My parents and I were going to watch Would I Lie to You? But unfortunately all the episodes that had been recorded were old ones that we'd already seen.

So I watched Impractical Jokers and I was surprised that nearly all the people took the blame for doing the fart when the Jokers had done it. The guys asked the strangers to take the blame for the fart and all apart from one took the blame. I definitely wouldn't be taking the blame for a fart that wasn't mine, especially in front of someone famous.

The famous guy was Jeff Daniels and he was in on the joke. I know him from Divergent, but unfortunately they aren't finishing that series. Which really annoys me because I loved those movies. I'll just have to read the book at some point. I finished the other books but I was waiting until the last movie was out to read the last book. But I'd say that movie will never be made so I'll just read it.

In the second challenge the guys had a fake scenario and they had to get people to agree that they weren't overreacting. I was surprised that the women weren't more sympathetic to Joe. He said someone had planned a C-section on his birthday and he didn't want the baby having the same birthday as him. I understood why he would be annoyed about that but the women thought he was overreacting. Although the scenario was made up by the other guys, so thankfully he doesn't need to worry about it.

I had a phone call with Shiv, the guy I went on a date with before the lockdown. He was getting Goggle Translate to say "you're beautiful" in different languages and I had to guess the language. It was pretty hard and I think I only got 2 or 3 right.

He also sung along to songs and he wasn't the best so it was pretty funny. I was trying to hold my laughs in but then I burst out laughing and I made Shiv laugh as well. He was asking me what songs to sing, so I got him singing loads of different songs and it was pretty funny.

That's it for today, bye and I hope you're all healthy.
