"Every time I see people (from a safe distance), I am reminded that my friends and the people around me really make my days."

I am doing relatively fine!...

...I did a lot of things before Corona that all stopped, and of course I miss them, but I understand from the beginning that it’s for the best. Studying has become harder, since I have a bit of a hard time studying at home. However, I am not giving up and every day is another day to try and do better again.⁠

Before Corona...

...I came to X for the Krashna rehearsals, but also to learn Argentine Tango and I joined Blue Suede Shoes. Now I make use of the online offer of X and joined the pilot with the personal trainers, because I also saw this as an opportunity to get in shape a bit more. I really like it! ⁠

During Corona times,...

...I try to do more things I normally don't have time for. I’ve picked up photography, tried to write more again, and paint and draw. It also gave me more time to spend playing piano.⁠

The thing I miss the most...

...is the social part. I have had the tendency to isolate a little bit before Corona because I am already so busy, and times like these can be dangerous because you don't notice as much when you're not being as social. But every time I see people (from a safe distance), I am reminded that my friends and the people around me really make my days.

When life...

...is getting back to normal I would like to go to the bar with my friends again. I am also looking forward to work again. I have always liked tutoring and I also work(ed) at a really nice restaurant. I hope that the weather will be nice and in my ideal world there would also be festivals, but we will have to see when they are allowed again.⁠ And when X reopens I will start dancing again and will enjoy the courses in general. Doing it in real life is so much nicer than online.

I am not giving up and every day is another day to try and do better again.⁠
