The growing worldwide outbreak of the CoVID-19 virus literally reached the Philippines and many Filipinos are starting to become vigilant and aware on what they want to do or interacting with others while doing their own thing. Others, on the other hand, prefer to stay home in order to be safe but has their own ways of keeping themselves positive in the midst of the outbreak. One such way is enjoying themselves on their smartphones and laughing out loud watching viral videos made by Filipino netizens on TikTok.

TikTok may not be among the most widely used social media sites in the Philippines like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube but it would seem that many netizens regardless of their social status, health condition and other things are starting to express their own positivity through the short video creation site and share it on social media only to become viral in just a few days or weeks. Celebrities, business-minded people, ordinary Filipinos coming from all walks of life and even government officials and employees are having fun creating their own fifteen seconds of virtual fame on TikTok whether it is dancing, singing or acting in any sense.

Any TikTok video you watched on social media is an enjoyable sight that you would think of making your own and sharing it online to have your own fifteen seconds of fame. Fortunately, creating your own TikTok video is fun and easy considering that all you need to do is to capture yourself on the smartphone's front camera, edit it with a bunch of available filters and add flavor with your choice from millions of songs at your disposal. When I say TikTok videos could make one enjoy his or her own fifteen seconds of fame when shared on social media, I mean it because one TikTok video lasts only fifteen seconds but it's fun to tinker when you think through.

In light of something threatening, TikTok can be one of the many things internet users can binge on to have fun and stay positive against all odds. It has been two years since it became available in the Philippines, but its traction continues to grow hard and wide thanks to the millions of short but fun videos created by it.
