#StayAtHome #StopTheCurve

As everybody know (unless you live under a rock) this month the COVID-19 hit hard on some European's countries, including mine. I have spent half of the month staying inside in quarantine.

It's a weird sensation that gives you perspective even to the point that going out to take the trash is a special (but dangerous, since people here aren't taking this seriously) thing to do.

The good thing is that I had some time to move some thing out of my backlog and I have no excuse to study some things now.

Since most pictures are taken from my living room window these days is better to share how I spend time with friends. This is a screenshot of Tabletop Simulator 1 while I play Zombiecide 2 3 with my friends.

Playing Zombiecide with some friends online

TVShows/Movies

  • Up to date with Money Heist 4

    The third part (first half of the second season?) is worst overall compared to the previous heist, but good enough to have enough will to watch it to the end.

  • Watched The Boys Season 1 5

    A good show about what could happen if super heroes where controlled by a corporation.

  • Rewatch: Rick and Morty Seasons 1 to 3 6

  • Started wathing Dragon Ball 7

    The first series, watched so long ago I don't even remember the story, is a good show to watch while I cook as episodes are short.

  • Started watching Gravity Falls 8

    Recommended by a friend, to watch while we have lunch/dinner.

Books

  • Continued reading The Magicians' Guild 9 by Trudi Canavan

    Haven't read much this month though. :(

Videogames

  • Started playing The Legend of Zelda: A link to the past 10

    Don't kill me, but this is my first time playing it.

  • Started playing Animal Crossing: New Horizons 11

    I have been waiting for this for a long time.

  • Played a bit of Guild Wars 2. Nostalgia. 12
