Are you and your family safe and sound where you are?
Right now I’m with my family in the Bay Area, which is where I’m from. The Bay currently has one of the highest numbers of Coronavirus cases in the entire country. As a result, we’re all taking lots of precautions and being as careful as possible, so as of now, we are all safe and sound.
How do feel about your ability to finish the term completely online?
I think if I ignored personal conditions, working online would actually be much nicer for me, especially in light of the more lenient grading policy that was recently adopted. However, I would definitely have preferred a normal semester, as I miss seeing and hanging out with my friends.
What made you happy this week?
This week, I was happy that I was able to relax after the recent chaos and get more family and personal time in. I was also happy to Facetime my friends near and far.
What’s your pick-of-the-week or tip-of-the-week?
For most people, quarantine’s going to be hellish. I know because I’m one of those people. However, there’s absolutely nothing any of us can do about it. As a result, my tip of the week is to make the absolute best of this time that you can. Work on improving your craft, learning a new skill, and/or breaking bad habits and rebuilding new ones, especially. This will definitely pay off in the long run, even after the quarantine is over. Above all, stay happy and healthy!
