2020 has been one of the strangest years of my life… Who would have thought a global; pandemic would change our lives so much so soon.
Whilst challenging, it has also provided me with a chance to reflect on what matters to me.
Personally, I learnt that the impact on the world of crazy and how much people lives had changed over a small amount of time. Learning at home was surprisingly easy and also the impact on friendships was crazy some friendships were lost and some new ones more made. The positives about the pandemic were people had more time to focus on themself and their wellbeing and they had more time to spend with there family and they found many different ways to socialise more like over facetime. but whenever there are positives there are also negatives some people sleeping schedule might have gone downhill and some people miss the time they could spend away from there siblings.
In terms of my family, I learnt that spending a lot of time can either bring out the best of your family or the worst I ended up getting closer with my sister and the coronavirus had some positive and negative impacts on my family some positive ones were that we became closer with my family and we started having more game and movie nights and every positive always comes with a negative sometimes I was really close around my sister and sometimes I needed some space and sometimes my sister would be pretty loud but you would get used to it after a while.
In terms of community. I learnt that the community actually became closer and they would be talking more often and you would be talking to people that you never really talk to and everyone benefited in some way by improving in there use of technology after being at home relaying on technology for everything. But some positives were we had no uniform and were in an environment that we were used to and we had more freedom with some classes like wellbeing and options and the student-led day and a massive bonus was we would be able to eat during class. The negatives were it was a lot more difficult to have one on one time with teachers and there were so many people on the call sometimes it was hard to ask questions.
