Although everybody doesn't want to be delayed, not all have the money and resources to continue with the new learning modality. Some have difficulty completing assignments due to the lack of reliable access to gadgets and internet connection. When others are tuned in to the discussion, some may still be searching and waiting for good signal strength. Therefore, students are faced with isolation, anxiety about a deadly virus, and uncertainty about the future.]]> 2020-08-11 13:20:45 UTC https://padlet.com/reinessagalang/32dmdy88e3htdxve/wish/675581117 reinessagalang https://padlet.com/reinessagalang/32dmdy88e3htdxve/wish/675581631 Books both educational and fantasy are nice time outs from the pandemic we are in.

Access to learning materials (ex: libraries, bookstores) are also lessened due to limited freedom of going out. Students are also more exposed to radiation brought by having more time using gadgets (for online classes). This exposure may lead to poor eyesight. Students may also develop unhealthy sleeping habits because of the freedom to control their time (since the need to wake up early and prepare for school is not necessarily needed anymore). Students may also have back pains from slouching all day since not everybody has an area to study (study table and chair).]]> 2020-08-11 13:21:34 UTC https://padlet.com/reinessagalang/32dmdy88e3htdxve/wish/675582256 reinessagalang https://padlet.com/reinessagalang/32dmdy88e3htdxve/wish/675583688 Since there is a pandemic going on it is important for us to watch out for our health.

We also try to comfort ourselves, soothing our emotions by listening to our favorite music. If our emotions are too strong to express in other ways,  we are distracting ourselves by sneaking some sweets from the fridge and try to eat them all ‘cause we enjoy eating sweets. It’s important to cope with painful emotions so we can be able to live a better healthier and happier life.]]> 2020-08-11 13:53:43 UTC https://padlet.com/reinessagalang/32dmdy88e3htdxve/wish/675631312 reinessagalang https://padlet.com/reinessagalang/32dmdy88e3htdxve/wish/675740644 Many of us are far away from our loved ones and friends in this time of pandemic.

It may not be the same as before but we will do our best to live our life like before. We will make use of this situation as an eye-opener in order for us to be aware of what help can we offer to our community and to other people. We will take this as an opportunity to reflect, to improve, and to grow holistically.]]> 2020-08-11 15:28:57 UTC https://padlet.com/reinessagalang/32dmdy88e3htdxve/wish/675799069
