I used to study a lot with my friends in the library. I didn't noticed how much it helped me to improve my learning until we got online classes and we couldn't go to the library and study together.
I tried studying alone but it was very hard because if I had questions I didn't have anyone to ask and I got distracted very easily.
I talked with my friends and they had the same problems as me, so we decided that we would study together but online, using Zoom.
I learned that we all need help sometimes and who's better than our friends to make study a pleasant experience for all of us? even if we can't meet in person.

When I got in university I had to move to Santiago. I lived in a flat by myself and I learned to live alone. I didn't spend a lot of time in it because I was in the university but getting home was always weird because my family wasn't there. I got used to it after a year and then because of the pandemic I got back home! I didn't remember how it was to lunch everyday with my family and be able to spend a lot more time with them because we couldn't go outside was really fun. I think I needed this year to enjoy my family, we didn't spend a lot of time together before the pandemic because our schedules were always busy so this made us slow down and enjoy our company more.
I learned that you can't take people for granted and you have to enjoy every time spend with them.

All of us from last year until today, we face a new situation where we have to share all the time with our family, and keep with our "normal" life.
For some of us this has turned out very well, although for others not so much, despite the fact that the lack of communication that exists is a problem, today, understanding and getting involved with the emotions and thoughts of each of the people with whom we we live it is essential for a good coexistence.
The solution to this problem must come from each one of us, so let's create an atmosphere of trust with the opportunity to express ourselves without being afraid to ask the people we love ... and you? How do you feel?

Between confinment & quarantine, I've learned to work with few and find new ways to realize my projects. due to the lack of art materials such as paints and looms, I had to rely on digital media. I didn't know how to do digital edition or painting, now they're indispensable for me. I've learned to use edition & ilustration softwares, with whom I saved a lot materials, time & waste. Now I am able to make animations! that makes me so happy, because I'm an Anime fan, mainly Studio Ghibli animations.
Another discovered skill, one that I'm not proud of, is that I am able to drink 15 coffee cups in a day without getting sick. Actually, I think it doesn't work on me anymore.

Our life has been changing since more than one year ago. The world situation is getting worse and we are all responsible. The food industry is a big deal. There's a lot of people that eat badly and they don't know what they are eating. Have you ever wondered where the food you eat comes from? or how it affects us emotionally?. Our body need to eat healthy, because all the metabolic process need proteins, amino acids, fatty acids, carbohydrates and water to keep the balance.
If you eat well your mood improves, and if your mood improves you will feel fantastic.
The food is the most important part of the human life, because is the power source, it’s the only way to stay strong, stable and happy. It’s better if you eat well and have a training plan.

Like Constanza, studying alone has become too exhausting and unproductive. We used to work together in our classes, even when the projects were individual because of the feedback, which improved our work due to reviews & opinions. Given that in my career, students choose their own schedules, it's been hard to settle zoom meets to work together. However, with my close friends, we meet throught zoom to stablish a study ambience, even tho we don't study the same things, this helps us not to get overwhlemed by the stress of being alone in our rooms.

Constantly spending time with the family, not being able to go outside for a walk, school or jobs, turned learning and communication into daily activities. my comprehension of family members has become from watching them as mother & grandmother, to see them as individuals beyond their blood-relation with me. I've learned about their behavior with work mates, their anguish and their worries. We've learned to stablish very friendly conversations compared to past ones, between mother & daughter, or Grandma & grandchild. Also, we learned to take our times & give us spaces even within these 4 walls. Anyway, I think that I learned to meet them a little more than I could without pandemy.

Being struck by confinment, sentimental and monetary issues, it's been hard to move on with problems older than pandemy, I've been taking sleep pills the last 4 years, I've had my ups & downs throught time, but I was making progress until Coronavirus stepped in. I started to sleep less, and the pills weren't working propperly, sometimes they worked so late that it was better to stay awake until morning classes instead of falling asleep and not attend. Since I didn't have enough money to pay for a neurologist, I had to look for other ways to get tired and feel sleepy without pills. I learned to be strict with my work out routines, keep my anxiety at bay, and to reduce my smoking wishes. I learned to drink hot stuff too, and to switch off early from works and social media, so I can be sleepy at midnight. I resumed old habits which I was carefree about, and I took more consideration of the whole process I've been throught these 4 years.

At the beginning of the pandemic I thought that the people were going to learn something from it.
To see how eating meat was causing this mutations in viruses, to see how much damage we have done to the atmosphere and how the world improves without us on it.
But I guess not everyone sees it that way. A lot of people when they go out to the beach they leave their masks in the sand, just because we don't have enough plastic in the ocean, right?
Not even a pandemic can change the human behavior. We're not invencible and we are seeing it now, what else has to happen for us to take action?

If you look around you can see many things made by humans. Where did they come from? and how they made it?. When we go to the supermarket, every thing has his own history. Each product comes from a big industrial process and we chose to buy it. But what happens before? This product has a plastic wrap that will be thrown away to go to the ocean or to be buried underground only to be degrade hundreds of years later.
We have the product just five minutes and then it’s useless. The way is simple, we have the decision to decide where we buy the product and what it is our responsibility in this world.
There are not much time left, the sixth extinction is coming but we are still on time to prevent it.
