kings and QUEENS
It was about a month ago. I was scrolling through my FYP on TikTok one night out of pure boredom, a night I’m sure we all can relate to. The videos ranged from teenagers rating old Cartoon Network shows to adults calling their significant others the wrong name. I was about to log off for the night when I found myself mesmerized by nine influencers lip-syncing to the chorus of “Kings and Queens” by Ava Max.

The tiktok video worth $10k and so much more..
The early stages of the pandemic coincided with the end of my daughter’s 8th grade year. It wasn’t easy to sit by and watch her sadness grow as one by one, everything she had worked so hard for was cancelled. In almost no time, nearly everything in her busy life was taken away from her: Showchoir competition season, the traditional signing of yearbooks, middle school graduation ceremony, and last but not least, the highly anticipated “grad night” that was supposed to have taken place at Disneyland’s California Adventure. Staples of her adolescent years were replaced w distance learning and stay at home orders.

Move Over
Move over One, two, three, TikTok action! “Let’s go back K & B” he sings. She starts to sing in the mic, “what they wa say’” she is pulling a string while he moves his body to the rhythm of the music. I could sit down all day and watch this short chip by “Justmaiko Bee and Me” The lyric makes no sense, but who wants something that makes sense today. It lets me know there is a virus in my head and not a brain. While watching the short TikTok, I chuckled to myself, as my mind-controlled by the rhythmic sound of the music and movements of the bodies understanding the method. It is called entertainment for the young. Initially, I am bliss with the short videos. Should I adventure in doing a TikTok video? It's not farfetched. It would be most rewarding to bring a smile on someone face for what is happening worldwide. As they detach themselves from the environment, they have become so clustered in today's pandemic. It is what people want to see right now.

Humor me!
How would life be without humor? I am referring to humor which lightens us when the world is dealing with its blows. Imagine its absence in these times! These are times people are seeking for answers. Some are looking for means of escape! It's their coping mechanism for dealing with a crisis. It's at times like this humor is the answer. I start my search on Instagram. One of my first stops:

9 Instagram Accounts That Will Help You Fall in Love with Yourself Again. Top Story - July 2020.
The world of social media can feel a little daunting at times can't it? Fancy food, holiday pics, models, super models, more super models. There's a chance when we're sat on the couch with the same Mum bun we've had in for three days; dipping a penguin into a jar of Nutella; whilst surfing the gram; between tackling laundry mountain, it could possibly, make us feel a tad inferior. I'm definitely not using those examples because they're exactly what I'm doing right now as I type this… There's Nutella on my shirt? That's somebody else's Nutella! Don't you look at me like that!

Survival in the time of the new normal
The Coronavirus global pandemic-inflicted lockdown has changed all things for all people. In India, with no certainty about when the lockdown will be lifted, ‘stay at home’ and ‘work from home’ have gone beyond fashionable mantras and become lifestyle imperatives.

The Exception
I recently made a post on my Facebook, with the expectations of my 1,509 "friends" to look at it and keep scrolling without commenting or giving their honest opinion. I thought to myself, I see these types of prompts all the time, contemplate about commenting for a split second then decide, I don't have time to do this for every person so why would I make an exception? Which led me to my next thought, how many people don't interact with someone online or give their opinions on a matter that's being questioned, am I the only guilty one? That conscious thought led me to yet another big question, that I didn't even realize I seek the answer to everyday, why would a person PUBLICLY make a post that had the potential for no interaction? Was that specific person attention seeking, were they needing their ego stroked, did they need to remind everyone on their "friends" list how much they were loved, what was the reason behind this post that looked at me and said, you love me right?

Why you should start a YouTube channel!
Lock down and being furloughed from my work has gotten me a bit bored to say the least. I am enjoying being off work and can have a lie in to watch endless amounts of movies. However, I feel as though I have watched and rewatched every movie and show Netflix and Amazon Prime has to offer me. I even got the Disney plus free week trial to have a nice week of animations and fairy tales, which I did thoroughly enjoy. It has now been nearly two months of constant TV shows and movies that I now feel as though I have no concentration left to really enjoy my favourite shows. To combat my lock down boredom and bring back my concentration, I have even taken up answering paid online surveys online.

A Creative Outlet to Deal with Lockdown
One thing that has helped me with this lockdown as tick-tock I tried the Post helpful videos about people with disabilities and maybe some General Life hacks along the way. I feel better because I am putting it out positive energy, as well as giving myself a project. I do have a YouTube channel called Yvonne Knight. However, those videos are a little more involved because of the editing process. Tick tock already has special effects and editing features built into the app. The features are pretty straightforward, even if you have no editing experience once so ever. I feel like making videos is its more comfortable way to express myself. Sometimes making videos is more relaxed than writing an article. YouTube, in particular, I can decide how long the video is going to be and how extensive the video edited Will be. When you write an article, you are writing to fit somebody else’s criteria. I like that YouTube and tick-tock give me more creative control over my work. I think in these times of separation, we need to find a creative outlet to express ourselves outward. We need to feel we are connecting to one another in some way, even though some of us cannot be with the one we physically want to be near.. If you are going to put forth a video on either platform, please consider doing a positive video, because there is too much negativity in the world right now. Please remember it takes a lot of courage to turn on the camera and pour out your creativity to the world. Some people Will is not tick-tock beautiful, but then again, the persons that are calling them ugly do not look much better than they do.

Piano-Playing Olathe, KS High School Senior Now Has a Viral TikTok Video
While there is no question that we are living in truly stressful times at this very moment, we also need to be aware of our blessings as well. For example, when it comes to the Coronavirus, everyone would agree that it is very dangerous and it has made a severely negative mark on our society. However, there are many things that this virus cannot do as well. For example, one thing that COVID-19 simply cannot do is stifle our creativity. One hall school senior in Olathe, Kansas exemplifies that very fact.

We didn't stop, we're just taking a different path.
Staying at home is hard. Probably because we haven't practised it. And it's not healthy for us. And we loved our old lives. Ah not to worry. Let's look beyond that and enjoy the time we have now. What it hasn't stopped is our creativity, which we'll always have, and we CAN still communicate a vast amount of it online. One particular video that made me laugh and stop scrolling to work out its ingenuity because it's brilliant. It's a skiing video with a man in a full skiing outfit, and he journeys his way down a mountain.
