Answer:
"A Student's Dilemma"
Everyone fears this pandemic's wrath not only for its impact but also it has been considered by many as the deadliest weapon that could end someone's life in an instant. As a student, it almost ended my dreams but it made me view life from different angles. It is true that face-to-face classes before are really hard but this new setup is a lot harder. Since it is still dangerous to go back to the old setup, we are doing our best to adjust in these times of pandemic. While things aren't falling into place, how long can we still stand this?
I can't help but miss the sound of my classmates' laughter and the voices of my teachers during discussions. I also wonder if my uniform still fits or if my shoes are still comfortable to wear. Because of the rapid increase of positive cases, classes are now done virtually - the reason why some students are now suffering. Although we have the modular mode of learning, there are some classes that need gadgets with strong internet connections; which are not affordable and available for everyone. This time is difficult so I hope everything will get better someday.
