probably not one of my most cheerful
videos but it's not a very cheerful time
things are definitely locking down it's
it's very similar to what happened to
China now that's happening in Europe and
the rest of the world so I mean I've
already done this once but yeah let's do
it again hello there Ben governor here
it's it's been a while since I've done
one of these videos from before but yeah
just doing another one just to know
they're update really because now we're
all in the same situation I was in in
Wuhan so I'm in it again
like the rest of you watching this yeah
yeah we're all in it now ah what have I
been doing since I got out of quarantine
while I was in England for a little bit
and then I came up to Ireland and I've
been seeing all my friends and family so
that's been lovely the plan was to
continue to do that
and I was gonna head back to England
actually this Friday but no more
traveling no more non-essential travel
so I'm kind of just staying put in
Ireland staying with family now from now
on yeah just so I can't believe it's
happening again
but yeah staying inside as much as
possible staying with family as while
this while this you know really gears up
because this is just the beginning now
it's all gonna get a lot more serious
than gonna get a lot worse before it
gets better like a lot yeah that's why I
was seeing friends and family I was in
Dublin and then Kildare and ARMA I was
definitely travelling but I was never
infected so that's okay but no more
traveling now that'll be it no yeah in
Dublin for the foreseeable future but um
we'll see what happens could say some
things about how people could have done
things differently like governments or
Europe could have done things
differently to prevent it being this bad
but no point doing that nothing happened
when it could have and now it's all a
bit too late yeah we're all in it now
but yeah that's the way it is Rohan's
doing well talking to my friends a bit
and we'll hand they're all good I think
I'm the 20th
it's a opening again things are slowly
getting back to normal so that's good so
that will happen here eventually
obviously things are on the other end
here I'm in Ireland and things have all
locked down pubs all shut a couple days
ago before Paddy's Day so yeah Paddy's
Day that was a very strange Patty's Day
but I celebrated with a couple friends
not too many just the two to three of us
had a few drinks just a little
celebration because obviously you don't
want to mingle with too many people at
this stage but yes things are definitely
locking down it's it's very similar to
what happened to China now that's
happening in Europe and the rest of the
world so I mean I've already done this
once but yeah let's do it again
um things that people have been asking
me is like how how did I cope or like
how did I stay sane personally I was I
mean I was doing this a lot was making a
lot of videos I'm just talking to Irish
news just keeping people updated in from
who hand but things that you can do
things that you'll want to do you'll
actually want to go out and go for a
walk with maybe one or two people I
think there are some countries I think
France you actually can't go out at all
unless you have a very good reason but
for other countries that aren't quite as
strict yet the longer you stay inside
knowing you can't go it's the same with
most things you know as soon as you
can't do it you really want to do it so
that's one thing I'd recommend to do and
quarantine is go for a walk of the I
couldn't in Wuhan but you know we can in
Ireland now yeah go for a walk I think a
few I think people from this will either
become quite fit because you'll be at
home a lot of the time so you're either
try and keep up fitness or you'll just
become fat fitter fat one or the other
because you'll either eat and do nothing
and just sit on the couch kind of thing
which obviously it's not a terrible
thing to do but there's nothing more
just to do or you know you'll go out
when I say go out I mean go for a walk
around the park that's really all you
can do and probably leave it no more
than two I'd say because it's all about
not spreading it now so what it is it's
here it's everywhere to stay for a while
I'd say a good few months probably China
got there very quickly China from
December to now shall we say from
basically from mid-january until
mid-march so just over two months I'd
say for China but they once it got
serious
they got serious and unfortunately
that's not happening here I'm I don't
understand why other countries aren't
looking what China did and you know oh
let's do that you know that worked well
there are some things you can't do the
way China did like you can't lock down
Wuhan
you can't lock down a city of 11 million
in other countries but you know you can
do other things and it seems countries
are very slow at that I don't know I'm
sure there's lots of factors of play you
know economy and stuff like that but at
the end of the day there's a lot of
people's health at stake so economy kind
of has to come second there doesn't it
but yeah I don't know I don't make
decisions China I got their act together
and they really you know showed the best
way to combat this then other countries
aren't copying them for some reason but
that's again not of me I just find it
strange after being in it and seeing it
it's all just happening again the exact
same things happening again people not
taking it seriously until it's too late
but I think people are taking it serious
you know but any poor those ain't things
to do in quarantine stay fit or get fat
it's up to you you'll see how what
happens after a few months a few weeks
inside you don't have a lot of time in
your normal life people always say oh
I'd love to watch that series or binge
this and you just don't really have that
much time normally but now now we have
all the time people be working from home
I'm still making my lessons I'll
probably do a lesson after I record this
video
and psychology currently teaching about
the anatomy of the brain so much fun
yeah so difficult to online as well so a
lot of people like like myself will be
working from home so you know it'll keep
you busy I find it hard to kind of
motivate yourself but if you set
yourself time I was never very good at
time management but if people like set
themselves a few hours a day just do it
then and what else can you do reading I
I think I the same way you know with
this such a modern age you're on your
phone all the time it's hard to put it
down and just kind of pick up a book but
I would definitely recommend doing it
it's a like it's same thing you just
don't have that much time when you're in
your normal day-to-day life going to
work 9:00 to 5:00 then you come home you
make dinner cook dinner
cheers only it's time for bed not any
time to read but now you know you kinda
have to look at the bright sides of this
terrible situation you've got a little
more time to do things that you don't
usually have time for so that's some
things you can do in quarantine I made a
YouTube channel as well because the
feedback from these channel 4 videos
were just I mean I think I said it
before but usually in comment sections
there's not very nice comments to put it
lightly but in the comment sections on
the channel for videos everyone was just
so lovely so yeah it was good it was
called Ben's nine lives and I just kind
of
I can't pretty much do this but yeah
just you know kind of keep yourself busy
do stuff you wouldn't normally do that's
something that will keep me busy now in
quarantine making videos from my own
YouTube and you got to just do you know
things like that I'm unsure as to my
situation for going back to China right
now because I think if I went back now I
would have to do another two-week
quarantine and I mean the last one like
I wasn't terrible but it wasn't exactly
the ideal way to spend two weeks so
don't know I don't think I can actually
go back right now to Wuhan because
obviously that's where it all started
but we'll see what happens
yeah I'm not entirely sure I'm in
contact with work
and the people there so eventually I'll
get some information on what to do and
that's another reason to be in Ireland
to sort out my visa and stuff like that
so it's kind of annoying to see for this
to be happening like this because it's
just exactly what happened in China and
I'm everything like I just I think I
said on my own YouTube a couple times
just or to my friends just how things
are gonna go and then they've all just
gone the way I said they would it's very
it's not something I want to be
predicting correctly but it is happening
exactly just it's like it's like a
playbook just going the exact way it's
predicted to go and yeah so that's why
I'm predicting for European countries
I'm predicting about four or five months
of things like this just things being
locked down because this is just so
contagious and I'm sure you can all see
this is we're not quite at Wuhan level
yet but we're definitely headed there
definitely heading in that direction and
unlike unlike Wuhan we won't be able to
build a hospital in 12 days no country
hood only China can do something like
that but yeah so it's it's gonna be more
complicated for everyone else but you
know I gotta try and stay positive as
much as we can
got to try and stay positive because
we're in it oh yeah it was annoying I
haven't been annoyed by how things have
just gone exactly as predicted booked
it's the way it is I can't do anything
about it now
good of Boquete now just have to get out
with it yeah probably not one of my most
cheerful videos but it's not a very
cheerful time because you just got to
stay sane as much as you can in
quarantine you we can still go out for
now but don't you know don't take it for
granted to being able to go outside
because
that might not always be the case for
the coming few weeks yeah I think that's
everything I've got to say so hopefully
everyone watching this is healthy and
happy that's actually how I start my
lessons kind of stupidly as like hope
everyone listening this lesson is
healthy and happy but yeah hopefully
everyone watching this video is healthy
and happy and I'll talk to you later
