COVID has definitely made me more wary of crowds too
We're trying to schedule the night market to avoid the crowds as much as possible. Going early and on Monday evening (hopefully less people will be there on a week night)!
I find that with these things it helps to plan ahead what you want to eat to reduce the time spent wandering aimlessly (which can be fun, but definitely not for me when it's crowded)...

Iunno if Monday evening would be good lol. After all it’s a long weekend so there might be MORE people if a lot of people have Monday off and want to end the long weekend at the market. XD just my opinion anyway. XD

Me too.
It's not just being more aware of it, I'm actually more uncomfortable about it.

That is true...... I feel like a crowd is inevitable LOL Fingers crossed that the food will be worth it!
One more day of work then play... One more day one more day *___*

Food is best!!

Right? I think COVID made us all a little bit OCD about germs and crowds, which isn't a bad thing imo. I haven't gotten a cold in years since masking up wherever I go and I used to get them regularly! Being more wary is definitely safer.

Well let’s hope to you can avoid some of the crowds. 8U

Gosh it was so windy earlier and it started raining too. I was afraid that things were gonna go flying everywhere.

i think everyone can be a testament to this, but i also think covid made us realize how dirty things are xD and sometimes me too. i can't believe i touched so many things and then touch my face. horrifying.

windy and rainy sounds nice... when you're inside :p

Better to be safe than sorry though, especially when it comes to large crowds that has little to no social distancing. I'm also certain Covid has made me sanitizing my hands more often when going out and sometimes not wanting to go out because of said reason unless you want to buy some grocery or something you need.

Is it bad I enjoy the wind and the rain? As long as they're not too strong nor heavy.

I don’t like to constantly sanitize my hands. If I can find a washroom and use soap to wash my hands, I’d prefer it that way.

Yeah I prefer to be indoors when we have a storm lol. XD

I don't sanitize my hands at all.
My dermatologist scolded me for using it during the lockdown - but, hey, back then we knew so little about this virus that I did not hesitate to screw my poor dermatitis.
Now I'm way more careful.

Well, I actually do use it if I have to go to a hospital or somethng like that. But that's an exception to the rule.

yeah i mean, i'm sure using it every once in awhile, if you can't get to a washroom, then its okay. that's what i do. but most of the time, if i can, i'd rather use soap and water to "sanitize" my hands. XD
