It has been 21 months of new normal and as a day pass by everybody wishes to go back to the normal way of living. Everyday we used to wear our face mask and face shield wherever we go and it’s a little bit suffocating, irritating and tiring. Wherever we go we need to secure our papers like travel pass and health declaration and I think it’s a waste of time to wait on the queue line. Enjoyment is indifference this time. I don’t understand why this Covid-19 pandemic cannot after done.
The pandemic have been a big challenge to all of the students. Learning in this new way of online and modular without face to face interaction with or teachers is so challenging. Discipline is the key to achieve our goals in our everyday task at school because time management is very important. In our online class, it takes a specific time to submit all of the requirements and for me if there is no consideration from my teachers it’s hard to finish all of the overlapping activities. As a student it’s my responsibility to check ,my modules and learn it. It is a worth it feeling to finish my activities at school.
Sometimes at school work, it is depressing because there is no one to talk to about the lessons I cannot understand well. Life during pandemic became so lazy. It’s very different from our normal routine during face to face days. Learning today is a self responsibility. It’s very helpful to be a good reader not just a listener because spoon feeding learners this time cannot keep up if they don’t strive their best. A never give up attitude is always needed while studying. This new normal makes me stronger and more independent. I know that achieving my goals in life is not easy, It takes up and down life-ride. The most important thing is I keep going forward and do my best always.
My self is my worst enemy. It is also a challenge that my mood to study is not motivating. My environment is good but when procrastination attacks me, there’s no way to finish all of my tasks. Distractions online like wasteful scrolling on Facebook, watching YouTube, live streaming on Kumu and many others is so tempting. My focus is blurred and in my mind I lose my goals and visions sometimes. It’s like I have to get out of my box and make a difference, everyday is so new that I have to adjust. Though it’s hard I need to be tough. I need to be good on my self for the betterment of my own.
Self expression and building new circles of friends during pandemic have been my support to assure that I always feel the love and joy during this time. I have many friends online that became my family-like-company. I know that during this time we all need support, that we must be more considerate and less hate and rejection to other people. There are many adjustments that are psychologically focused to prevent us from depression. Our online devotionals have been my good motivator. Building spiritual strength and fellowship with my faithful youth friends is very inspiring everyday.
I believe that God is in control. During this time trusting Him is always the best. Maybe we cannot do what we expect now but I believe there’s always a purpose behind what’s happening today and in everyday. As a person we must be wise in all the circumstances we encounter. We don’t need to stress our selves. We must have our principles in dealing life situations. For me life is a matter of joy if we only keep our mindsets positive. Whatever happens after this COVID pandemic or how long this will take, I just put my trust on Him. Maybe Covid-19 is just a new way to discipline people. December 2019 to September 2021 is a timeline of tough 21 months that I survived because of discipline.
