SOME DIFFICULTIES OF PUTTING ON A MASK

 

 Life's   been changed since the start of Corona virus pandemic. The free lifestyle we used to live in is now been limited by an invisible enemy. It's even harder to return to the time as it was before and it's gonna last like forever and ever. Though the virus can some day be over but our fear  is gonna remain within us.

And the most faithful friend of ours these days has become none other than THE MASK.😷😷😷 It is almost like 24/7 with us. Since we have been wearing this small piece of cloth like for seven months; of course we have been through one of the following situations at least ONCE.

1.Stale breath:

After wearing for some hours our mask just stinks like uhhhhh.😵😵😵 It really does smell bad like something's rotten inside our mask. Even if we tend to chew some chewing gum to get rid of the smell; it just gets worse. 🥴🥴🥴

2.Forgetting mask:

We forget to put on a mask when we go outside oblivious to the fact that there's virus outside.  We are working or studying inside our home  as one of the normal days of previous years. And we go out to a nearby shop for shopping or something else and all of a sudden in midway we realize we are not wearing a mask 😳😳😳😳 That's the time we pull over the collar of our T-Shirt or the end of our sleeves to cover our mouth.🤦🤦

 

3.Sun burn:

During the hot summer days,we get sunburnt despite of rubbing some suncream on our face. The part below our eyes are saved but the part above the lining of the mask is Tanned. And when we view ourselves in the mirror😨😨😨 it feels as though we have wore another layer of mask across our forehead and we are someone else.😅😅 

4.Makeup stain  in the mask:

Most of the girls put on a makeup before putting on a mask. If the day is hot and your face is sweating and of course your makeup is not waterproof it's so likely to get those makeup marks  on your mask.😑😑 Sometimes the lipstick marks are seen from outside. People find the colour of your lipstick inside your mask.😳😳

 

5.Sore ears:

After putting on a mask all day the base of our ears are literally throbbing. The pressure the masks puts on our small ears is like tons. And when our mask becomes smaller ,the way our ears tends to close itself is hilarious😂😂.We feel as an alien from some outer space. And above all it itches.

6.Unknown Face:

Wearing a mask with your goggles on and a helmet, even your relatives thinks you of an stranger. When you go visit your relatives in this outfit they are likely to force you to take off your mask ,helmet and goggles just to recognize your face. Being an stranger is sometimes advantageous as well. 😅😅

7.Foggy eyeglasses:

Those who were glasses and mask at the same time, the glasses are all foggy. The air that we breathe out is all stick up inside our glasses and our vision is blurry. We have to wipe it time and again to see properly.🤓🤓

8.Murmur:

We don't understand people speaking in front of us wearing a mask. It seems as if they are mumbling or muttering on their own. And we have to pardon them to repeat what they are saying . 🤭🤭 People feel irritated sometimes.

9.Larger masks slips:

If we have larger masks it keeps on slipping down every time we try to speak. Either it touches the brim of our eyes or touches the tip of our  chin at least.😄😄😄. There's no point but to keep on adjusting or buying a new one.

 10.Losing masks:

Some of us don't have the habit of putting our mask in a certain place. We leave it at random places and lose it. After we buy a second mask the first mask  appears. And it so goes on and gets on piling that we could open up a shop.🤑🤑🤑 Even though we keep on losing our masks. 

11.Sneezing:

It's the most hilarious part. If we are in public and happens to sneeze all of a sudden, the expression of people around us is damn funny. They stare us like we have asked them something annoying or expensive. They try to get away from us and starts putting on sanitiser as fast as they can. 

And the mucus that gets stuck in the mask. Everyone is familiar.😂😂

 

 We might have been in one of these situations when putting on a mask. However it's necessary to put on masks whenever we are outside of our homes. Be sure to protect yourself against virus.
