Hi everyone my name is Kevin Duckworth and I’m a cadet in the Chipmunks batch of our institute Insight Flyer. The lockdown has been a testing time for everyone and absolutely does entail a certain amount of mental strain to be confined to the walls of your house/flat. With that being said there is also a resurgence of one resource that we usually take for granted, “Time”.
Although my instructors would probably like for me to study with all the free time around (Haha), other than my preparation for the DGCA exams I have picked up a few hobbies to help me be a little more productive during the lockdown:
- Reading – I used to read a lot in middle school and to some extent in high school as well but in college I lost this habit as my focus was basketball. Currently I am reading “Inferno” by Dan Brown which is coincidentally also about a pandemic, it is a really cool book with extremely detailed insights (pun intended).
- Skipping/Jumping Rope – Since it isn’t the safest thing to go to the court and play basketball, which I love doing, I picked up an old skipping rope lying around the house and have definitely gotten hooked to it.
- Studying – I hope my instructors are reading this.
- Restriction on screen time – well that does seem like a vague heading but I feel this is important given almost everyone is at home and at the mercy of their devices. I make an effort to avoid the amount of time I spend on screens and social media and have found that it increases my focus and attention span.
- Playing the guitar- I like old school music like the Eagles and I learnt that I can pretend to play Hotel California and New Kid in town. And a couple of songs by Bryan Adams that I can actually successfully complete without butchering it. (I spend more time on the guitar than the CX3)
End note- Jokes aside, I do hope the combined effort of our instructors and cadets will pay off resulting in the Chipmunks clearing their papers, and head off to South Africa to compete to be the best batch Insight has had.
