Assignment 21- Church

 When Covid hit I lacked a lot of motivation to do anything. This was not uncommon for people my age as we were being kept from our friends and we had to start learning how to do school online, but at first I didn't realize that I was lacking motivation because I saw it as a fun vacation and school was so much easier. After a few weeks of being quarantined I was able to see two of my friends again, as well school was pretty much over at this point. Then I spent the summer hanging out with my two friends but that was it. I never really saw anyone else besides them. Then I got a job and became super close with my friends there. I mean I saw the people I worked with for 8 hours a day 5 days a week. I mean its hard not to be close with them. However I started to lose friends at school. I just never stayed in touch which is really my own fault looking back at it now. Now that school has started again this year and it was online, my motivation has gone down even farther, it's hard to understand and have motivation to ask questions and learn when school is online, and besides that I see all these people who are successful without college and it just makes me wonder, but also I know I need to go to college. Now finally next week, we are going back to school in person, this is really overwhelming as I am a person who likes routine and have been so use to my routine with online school. On top of the physical change, I'm going to see people I haven't seen in over a year and haven't said a single word too. I almost feel like a kid moving schools even though we all know each other. In a way I think quarantine has changed us all for better or worse. In the end to solve this problem I have downloaded an app to start getting myself on a new schedule and have been trying to focus it like it would be if I was at school. As well I have been reaching out to people just to see how they have been. I am hoping that this will make going back to school easier, but I guess I could update this blogpost next week when we go back.
