Moving

Over the past few weeks I have been balancing a lot on my plate. Between COVID-19 sending all college students back home, to finding an apartment in a new city, to continuing to do schoolwork while mentally being checked out as a senior. It’s hard as a senior to go through something as extravagant as this. The last month of school is supposed to be the most exciting time for seniors. Having everything canceled and then trying to have seniors try their best to do all their work from home is a lot harder than it seems. Each person goes back to their home environment that they have escaped from for nearly four years. The difficult task of trying to readjust not only to a new way of living in society but also being back home with family can be challenging to most. In my case, I had to find an apartment to live in while my mother moves out of the place I called home the last 21 years of my life. My sister just moved out in February, my dad lives down in New Jersey and I am on my own. I was expecting to face this delema at the end of May but this whole pandemic threw everything out of wack. Considering all the last minute scrambeling, I think I’ve handled things well. As hectic as life has been, I have tried my best to do all my work for classes on time. Sometimes I have been a little late on assignments but I’m trying my best with what I’ve got. The pandemic has certainly flipped the world upside down especially for myself.
