Current academic challenges

Hello everyone! It's been a really complicated year...

Since the pandemic began, my life has changed completely. 

In my first year of university I was living a period of adaptation: I moved to Santiago... I was beginning a "new life" in a city unknown to me.



After a couple of months, I was already adapted to my life in Santiago, in fact I liked it, but with everything that happended afterwards, I had to return to Rancagua, my hometown. 

I had big plans for my next college years (like making more friends or knowing more Santiago), but I coulnd't, because the pandemic came.



Having online classes has been difficult for me: I didn´t have a good computer, the internet didn't work in my room, so I had to take my classess in the dining room (a very noisy room in my house), etc. 

Those things got better over time. But this year has been a challenge for me, because I realized I can't stay focused for long. It's really hard for me to pay attention and understand the classes, because that's who I am. The noise around me (my neighbors and their very loud music, for example) is not helping me with my problem. 

In despite those difficulties, being at home feels good: I do not have to worry about cooking or cleaning the house, because there are other people here. Besides, I don't have to travel to get to college, so I don't have to get up so early. 

Two days ago I went to college for a face-to-face class. It was a good experience, but I forgot how to get there 😅. 

Thank guys for reading my book 💓
