I guess this may be an unpopular opinion, but I don’t really mind having the lockdown. Sure, the lack of in-person interaction does suck, but I’ve got a group of friends that call daily and so we don’t feel as socially isolated. Additionally, this lockdown has given me so much more time to work on schoolwork as I’ve taken back the time I’d waste on moving from class to class and the time spent travelling to and from school. Prior to the lockdown I already had tasks I wanted to spend time on in my free time, and the lockdown has allowed me to gain good progress on them.
I suppose the lockdown has shed some insight as to the inefficiencies in my life, and it’s allowed me to be far more productive than I would be in school. I suppose on a more global scope, it was interesting to notice how quickly global activity can come to a halt. It has also shed some light on the cruciality of some under-appreciated services.
However, I think that despite all of its productivity benefits, I don’t think I will be particularly sad once the lockdown is over, for once I’m actually missing school!
Here’s a photo of the night sky, since I don’t have a dog to take pictures of:
