Hi Everyone / 大家好,
It’s been the first time I’ve visited a Westfield since the restriction ease as I needed to head over to Daiso to get some home stuff and grab a few things from the Asian stores. I had my mask and usual gear ready and headed in, a few familiar shops are already in business. I wasn’t too overly excited to see them open and really there weren’t many people in these stores even though it was opened for business. This makes me think, will our lives ever be normal again and how will we survive when things will somewhat be better in terms of COVID19 infection rates.
澳洲政府開始解封限制之後,我第一次到外面商場走一個圈因為要到日本店 Daiso 買一點家居用品. 我跟平常以往戴口罩出外但看見很多街上的人好像跟以前一樣沒有戴口罩覺得有點擔心. 商場裏有幾間商店有開門但人客不多. 我心裏想往後的日子大家的習慣和生活方式會因為這個疫情而會改變嗎?
I can see stores like Pandora, Cotton On etc are all opened but why would anyone want to visit these stores anymore as you can buy the goods online. I have been shopping online nonstop to avoid crowds and minimise human interactions. I know for one thing, these usual stores with a shop front may lose a lot of my business as COVID19 has changed the way on how I live.
看見 Pandora, Cotton On 等商店漸漸如常運作我心裏想為什麼現在會有客人去店裏買東西不如在家裏網購比較方便. 如果不在門市買東西在網上購物可以減少同人的交流,減少感染的機會所以未來我會預計很多商店都會漸漸關閉門市的部分運作.
Over the weekend, there were crowded everywhere at some shopping centers which I am sure people are glad to be outside but are it really needed? The photos I posted a few days ago clearly shows people aren’t practicing social distancing or even have a mask on. Would I be willing to take that risk? Probably no. Will you be taking that risk?
大家還記得上個週末我分享過一張在商場裏的照片嗎?相片中人流同聖誕節的時候差不多,好多人沒有戴口罩或有沒有堅守1.5米的距離. 看見這樣的情況我不會冒險去外面逛街,你會冒這個險嗎?
