Quarantine
So, once again, distance learning starts. It occurs to me that I was having a hard time accepting the truth that some part of my precious college life is being deprived again by the pandemic. Suddenly, I lose the opportunity to learn in the classroom, lose the opportunity to hang out with my friends, and also, lose the luck to catch some more glimpses of our magnificently built campus. In a bad mood, I came back to my sweet home, trying my best to get used to my following quarantine life. While keeping myself aware of the final exams that follow me like a dreadful monster. As time goes by, I find myself starting to favor my new college life. Sometimes, it feels better to be alone, for more time will be given to oneself to associate with one's own soul. Now I have plenty of time to do whatever I want, including reading, jogging, and sleeping, because the time we used to travel between distances is now saved due to the quarantine. Moreover, the way how we take online courses through Google Meet actually fits me better than physical classes. I found myself being able to concentrate more on the course because I have to keep staring at the screen of my devices, which is a very good learning environment for me. I now found a way to live out my new college life. Nevertheless, I still want the old life back, a life to live in where no mask needs to be worn. Even though I am getting used to my new quarantine life, I still miss the good old days. It is just a feeling that cannot be replaced by any other form of replacement. I generally hope that the Covid-19 pandemic can soon be ended, so that we may live in the best way we should.
