Lockdown Diaries: Ulutho
Our Voices Unite Student Ambassadors will be sharing their personal experiences of the national lockdown and Covid-19 pandemic in a series of short videos titled Lockdown Diaries.
The first video is narrated by Ulutho Kobese, a 23-year-old University of Johannesburg (UJ) student from the Eastern Cape.

Lockdown has made me appreciate the beauty of going out!. I have been doing online courses, school work and some extensive reason on random topics, just to get some knowledge.
That’s great to hear, Michelle. It’s amazing how much we miss during this period. It’s good to hear that you are upskilling yourself through online courses. Learning never ends, even in a time of a pandemic. Stay strong and safe!
Yoh when the president announced the national lockdown I knew it was about to get real😲 !!! The first few weeks of lockdown was quiet hard for me, it was like living in a new era although I am much of an indoor person I sometimes need some time out from the house you know going out and just having fun. The lockdown has given me so much time to spend and bond with my family 😊 we things we never did before ,playing games together and cooking (oh I love food😋😁).
Well we still in lockdown,we moved from 21 days to now 57 days I think….
I am already used “this lockdown thing” it’s like a life style now😀.
I miss being on campus though 😔.
Glad to hear that you’ve used this opportunity to spend time with your family Valpre. It did take some getting used to the lockdown in the beginning but as you’ve correctly said, it is becoming a lifestyle now. Keep spending time with family, it is such a precious gift. And let us know about the kind of food you like cooking.
I started with a very good practise. I had normal schedule just that it was more shorter this time. Starting getting bored because day started getting the same. As days went buy financial stress started kikcking. Now, I am trying to get myself to do some excercing again and more of school work.
Thank you Sabelo, glad to learn that you are modifying your schedule as things start becoming mundane. It is important to do what we can to keep ourselves sane.
