Sophomore Stories of Resilience-2020 by Sandra Strebel https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam This started as a class assignment and is expanding to a community project. During the worst days of the pandemic we wanted to focus on our strength and resilience instead of all of the things we lost. At the end of semester 1 the English 10 team worked on a project with our sophomores. As a final project during the fall semester students wrote their own resilience story about how they overcame something (sometimes huge, sometimes small) during the pandemic. We gathered many stories from all of our sophomores and present them here for you to read, connect with, and enjoy. Thank you for reading our thoughts and our experiences, we hope it strengthens you. en-us 2021-02-19 03:01:27 UTC 2026-01-26 06:05:33 UTC hello@padlet.com sstrebel https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1217704887 My story is about how my family's travel plans were canceled and how we decided to watch weekly travel shows of the places we could have gone

In 2020, on March 13, quarantine began. Remote operation and training have been introduced everywhere. I was no exception. I, like all teenagers, switched to home education and have been at home for more than 10 months.
Sitting at home is a rather boring occupation ... there is no one to talk to, you cannot invite a friend to visit, and walk the streets or shops only wearing masks! But even in this I found my advantages !!! Can't go out with friends? - we will miss each other more and will be more friendly when we meet! Is it boring to sit at home? - it doesn't matter either! You can take an interesting book and delve into the plot by reading! You can develop your creativity, for example, in quarantine, I learned how to cook new dishes and collect a Rubik's cube. Also at home you can rearrange the room, disassemble unnecessary things.
When interesting things in the house are over, you can use social networks and look for new friends and find common topics and interests with them! You can play different games online together and discuss it! You can also listen to music, dance, relax and have fun alone like not having fun with friends. 
As a result, all minuses were replaced by pluses. Life changes are not always bad!

Resilience is when you feel emotionally bad but find the strength to move on! About myself, I learned that I'm not such a boring person and I can think of a lot out of boredom. One is good, but when something happens to you, a friend will come to you for support and help, or I will help a friend :)

My resilience story falls into the category of social media, quarantine, food. My resilience story will take shape of Photo Essay. I chose this particular form because through photographs a lot can be shown and explained with one picture. 1 photo instead of 1000 words. The photo shows my resilience because I found strength and patience and solved the Rubik's cube after a long time. Perhaps it will be interesting to someone, perhaps

Being isolated for 3 and a half months due to a pandemic is something you only see in movies. During that nation wide quarantine I missed pretty much everything in more ways than one. Then, finally, I got to see my friends for the first time since the quarantine. I hadn't seen my friends in a very long time because of quarantine. I had to wait a lot longer to see my friends, and be a lot safer than other kids in my grade because my dad and some of my friends' parents are frontline workers. It felt really unfair that some kids got to do a lot more than my friends and I did, but in this time it's safety over everything. If we were to hangout it would be outside and socially distanced. So in the middle of May, my friends and I made a plan to have a socially distanced picnic. We needed to have a place for the picnic that was private and away from people, so we chose a beautiful field in one of my three friends' back yards. I was very excited to go and see my friends but I knew I also had to be very careful and considerate given the situation. When I got to the outside of her house that day and saw my friends I felt overwhelmed with happiness and gratitude that I was finally able to see them. I think the moment of resilience really hit me when we had finished walking through a clearing that led to the field and I saw it for the first time. The sun was shining perfectly that day, we were happy, laughing and separate of course literally, but still felt together. I Felt this resilience because me and my friends had made the right choices to be safe during this time in quarantine and times to come. Seeing them again that day gave me a new sense of hope and a feeling of comfort that everything would one day be okay again. Seeing them gave me strength and resilience. I learned and realized how incredibly strong my friends and I were. Everything we had endured at the age of 15, everything we had sacrificed, and given up so that the people we love and the community could be safe. My friends and I struggle with mental health sometimes too, so that on top of a pandemic would show strength in anyone. As hard as it was to stay distanced during that picnic it also was rewarding to know that we were being strong, resilient, and making the right decisions. That moment where I saw the glowing field, with some of the people I love surrounding me was extremely important and memorable to me because I finally felt okay again. Quarantine and Covid-19 was and is a dark, relentless cloud, and my friends and this field was a light for me.  I think you could say that anyone who endured 2020 is resilient. This past year has had so much grief, so many lows, and I think getting up stronger after you've been knocked down is what resilience really is. Seeing my friends that day after three months gave me new resilience and happiness I will never forget.]]> 2021-03-06 20:30:43 UTC https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277200613 Family member with Cancer sstrebel https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277206541 2021-03-06 20:35:36 UTC https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277206541 My Family's Little Struggles sstrebel https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277207541 2021-03-06 20:36:30 UTC https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277207541 Soccer Practice in a Global Pandemic sstrebel https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277209951 2021-03-06 20:38:35 UTC https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277209951 8th Grade Was Rough sstrebel https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277214345 This piece of art I drew represents a lot of my feelings during 8th grade in a class where half of the 10 students were homophobic]]> 2021-03-06 20:42:21 UTC https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277214345 Results of My Way of Dealing with a Pandemic sstrebel https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277215959 I wrote an easy about my experience dealing with the pandemic along side with school, my social life, and daily responsibilities.  ]]> 2021-03-06 20:43:42 UTC https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277215959 The Office sstrebel https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277223003 This is a photo essay/my story of having to go to an office everyday just so I can complete my online school work. ]]> 2021-03-06 20:49:40 UTC https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277223003 My First Summer Job sstrebel https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277226577 I had to face in my first job, due to the pandemic, but I was still able to have fun, learn lots and have a great experience.]]> 2021-03-06 20:52:51 UTC https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277226577 sstrebel https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277229010 2021-03-06 20:55:10 UTC https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277229010 Resilience Podcast sstrebel https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277230624 A podcast discussing not only personal stories of resilience, but how everyone can take part to help build up our society.]]> 2021-03-06 20:56:34 UTC https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277230624 Resilience Through Music sstrebel https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277238754 I wrote about my struggle finding motivation to play my instrument and then how I overcame it.

That is when I struck the idea of starting one up, and when I did, it was light for the kids, because it meant, we could be together, tell our feelings, even when we were surrounded by the storm known as Covid 19, and we could prevail TOGETHER!!

Together; Even in the Midst of Resistance
This connect to what I said, but this was about my historical figure, which was Martin Luther, he was a man, that lived a normal life, but everything changed after a near death experience with lighting. After this, he dedicated his life to be monk, and became a bible professor. While here, there was a practice in the Catholic Church called Indulgence, and so wrote the 95 thesis, speaking out. Because he was united, with the German People he was able to make a difference.
Down Below is my song that connect my historical figure with what I did.

Whether it's staying home more or wearing masks, everyone has had to make some sort of difficult change. A lot of people have been very resilient but there are two people that have been more reliant than most. 
My grandparents have been very resilient, each in their own way, over the past year. At the end of 2019 my grandma was planning on going to help my Uncle and Aunt with their newborn baby in Minnesota and staying there a couple of weeks, and during those two weeks my grandpa planned on just working like he usually does. So my grandma went to Minnesota a day after the baby was born in January. My grandma had told my Uncle and Aunt that she would help them get everything balanced out before they had to go back to work. Unfortunately my baby cousin had a lot of issues with his heart and breathing. Basically my grandma stayed at their house for those two weeks while my Aunt and Uncle were at appointments with their son and never left the house, but two weeks turned into two months which eventually turned into six months. It turned out that the baby had a lot of problems, and over the course of six months had to have four surgeries.  My grandma stayed at their house for six months and babysat the newborn and their other daughter while my uncle and aunt worked, and did chores around the house. Not only did she stay there for so long but she rarely left the house because before Covid the baby was not healthy enough to leave the house, and by the time he was healthy Covid had already hit.
During this time my grandpa was left with a lot of extra things he had to do. My grandparents own 4 restaurants and are very busy so my grandpa opted to stay home for the time if my grandma stayed with my Aunt and Uncle. My grandpa was very busy during this time as well. He had a very busy schedule that made it hard for anything else to squeeze in. He ended up working Monday through Friday during the day and at night, and going up to Minnesota to visit them on the weekends. He would work from 11 to at least 8 every Friday, and then leave really early saturday morning. He would spend the rest of the weekend in Minnesota, and then come home early Monday morning in time to work sometime on Monday. With his tight schedule he didn't have a lot of time to do laundry, make dinner, and clean the house, but he somehow managed to get it all done. Not only is it hard to work so much and then drive a lot on the weekends, but no matter where he was he is always helping at work, because any questions go to him, and during Covid there are a lot of questions.
Overall my grandparents are amazing and are two of the most resilient people that I know. ]]> 2021-03-06 21:21:56 UTC https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277258706 Grandma vs. Covid sstrebel https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277262913 2021-03-06 21:26:06 UTC https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277262913 Resilience Through Dungeons and Dragons Club sstrebel https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277266491 2021-03-06 21:29:11 UTC https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277266491 How golf helped me through the covid 19 pandemic sstrebel https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277283348 2021-03-06 21:44:26 UTC https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277283348 Family Support sstrebel https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277324297 My grandfather passed away in may, and so my whole family got together to support each other and help everyone get through this time]]> 2021-03-06 22:24:07 UTC https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277324297 Zoom/Face Time sstrebel https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277326198 In quarantine and still everyday I would zoom or face time my friends.

Although it does help when you have a few friends up your sleeve. The past year has been hard in a way of celebrating birthdays with friends, and just large groups of people.

Nowadays, social freedom has started coming back to us little by little, still with masks and distancing, but meeting up, and we can try to celebrate birthdays! ]]> 2021-03-06 22:34:55 UTC https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277335270 Mental effect of Online School sstrebel https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277342372 Social interactions are a great part of school, but now with online school that has changed for the worse.  What kind of affect does this have on a persons well being? ]]> 2021-03-06 22:42:49 UTC https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277342372 Going on Drives With My Sister sstrebel https://padlet.com/sstrebel/49fr31vb3gqw1dam/wish/1277344836 A moment of resilience for me was small but still helped me a lot,  being alone, not being able to see my friends, and the feeling of being isolated was difficult.
