Post-lockdown excitement thread!

Apologies for yet another pandemic-related post, but I feel like this needs to be said. I hope with all my heart that this strikes a chord with someone. I'm also not sure what heading to give this thread, so I decided on something a little more positive.

I'm not sure if I'm alone in my thoughts, but I don't really have much to look forward to right now. Weekends have become non-existent. Remember when we used to be excited for the weekend? The days merge, with little to no distinction. I have no birthdays to look forward to anymore. My birthday has come and gone. Christmas is the next main thing on the calendar, but excitement for that has been stifled. What would life be like then?

I'd love to travel to places not too far from where I am. Country Victoria, the CBD. I can imagine myself in these places, soaking up the atmosphere and taking photos. I don't know when the day will come, but what I am certain about is that it will happen one day. Building anticipation and excitement keeps me going.

While we are still under restrictions, what little things get you through? What sparks your excitement during this time? What are some things you are looking forward to doing once restrictions have been sufficiently eased? I'd love to share in your excitement (or sympathise with your fears and anxieties, as that is completely understandable too.)
Listens to K-Pop (Twice, Red Velvet, MAMAMOO) and Christmas music all year round.

The exciting thing is that the uni library that has been closed reopened today for study use! (Parkville has been a GHOST town before today)

I'd also really just would love to browse bookstores again

Don't get me started; I have so many books I want to run out and buy T_T

I'd also really want to sit down at a cute cafe once more. Or even go have late-night dumplings with my bookclub after bookclub. Simple things, yknow </3

I like the idea of this thread :D
Especially after the HSC and COVID-19, I can't wait to play sports again like Soccer, Tennis and Basketball!

Keen to see what others say :)

It's really nice that I don't need to plan shopping around when my housemates will shop anymore :)
