Ini adalah salah satu kegiatan saya di rumah, saya membuat kue ulang tahun pesanan via online dari teman-teman di kota saya. Usaha rumahan ini telah saya kerjakan semejak 2 tahun yang lalu, dan itu sangat membantu ekonomi keluarga.
This is one of my activities at home, I make online birthday cakes from friends in my city. I have done this home-based business since two years ago, and it has really helped the family economy.
Semenjak corona virus memasuki wilayah Indonesia, saya nyaris kehilangan pelanggan, tidak ada perayaan ulang tahun, hanya ada social distancing dan pelarangan pusat keramaian yang sering terdengar.
Since the coronavirus entered Indonesia, I almost lost customers, there were no birthday celebrations, only social distancing, and banned crowd issues that were often heard.
Saat ini kota saya sedang menerapkan new normal, perlahan tapi pasti, kegiatan-kegiatan umum lainnya mulai aktiv kembali. Pasa-pasar juga mulai ramai kembali, pun begitu protokol keamanan dan kenyamanan dari virus covid 19 tetap dianjurkan oleh pemerintah setempat, semisal memakai masker saat berpergian dan mencuci tangan yang rutin.
Currently my city is implementing new normal, slowly but surely, other general activities are starting to be active again. The markets are starting to get busy again, even so, the security and comfort protocol of the COVID 19 virus is still recommended by the local government, such as wearing a mask when traveling and washing hands regularly.
Hari ini pula saya mulai mendapatkan dampak positif semenjak diberlakukannya new normal, ini pesanan perdana saya. Sudah 3 bulan saya libur dan tidak dapat membantu perekonomian keluarga. Jujur, 3 bulan belakangan ini adalah saat-saat genting dalam menjalai hidup. Tidak berpikir untuk melanjutkan usaha, bisa bertahan hidup dan makan saja sudah sangat bersyukur.
Today I also began to have a positive impact since the implementation of new normal, this is my first order. I have been on jobless for 3 months and cannot help my family's economy. Honestly, the past 3 months have been critical times in life. Not thinking about continuing the business, being able to survive, and eating is very grateful.
Saya berharap keadaan kembali membaik, dengan begitu saya dapat kembali beraktivitas dan produktif di rumah dalam peningkatan perekonomian mandiri keluarga saya. Dengan kembalinya aktivitas masyarakat kedepan, harapan saya, pesanan-pesanan kue ulang tahun saya juga meningkat seperti dulu lagi, semoga!
I hope things will get better so that I can return to my activities and be productive at home in improving my family's independent economy. With the return of community activities going forward, my hope, my birthday dimple's cake orders are also increasing like they used to be, hopefully!
Hope things go smoothly for you, it's been a hard few months for many people around the world.
