CHANGE & CORONA

COVID-19

"These people have changed one by one. People are filled with emotion. Some filled with rage and some filled with sorrow. Less laughter and more quietness"

HOW QUARANTINE HAS AFFECTED MY LIFE

"These past three months have been quite an experience. For many, they see these times as a con and would kill to be able to go outside again. However, I look at it from a different perspective."

QUARANTINE: TRAPPED IN MY HOUSE

"Seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks pass... but i seem unaffected by the fast changing time. Completing my schoolwork, watching some dramas, visualizing my future... it’s an endless cycle. Sleeping at 3, waking up at 12... it has become an unbreakable habit. "

"Make the best out of everything. Our world is always changing around us, so we should follow along and change with our world."

by Alana Neria

(translated in Chinese)

"Throughout this quarantine I’ve been throwing myself into binging a marathon of shows and I can’t say I regret it. I do it during my free time of course. And this leads to my way of keeping people home and safe."

by Janice Huang

(translated in Chinese)

"I confess that I used to not take time for myself and avoided sitting down and thinking about myself. And being forced to be with yourself, mainly alone everyday of the week was a real mental battle for me. I relied on my friends to think for me, give me suggestions, give me advice but right now, I can only give advice to myself."

by Madelynn Yung

"During quarantine, I also acquired new skills and new interests. This spring, I participated in sculpting class on Saturdays, but due to the outbreak, the rest of our class was moved online. During remote learning, our final project was to film a video about our alter egos. In the process, I learned editing, green screen, and later on, animation."

by Michelle Yang

(translated in Chinese)

"We were all strangers who carried a sense of distance. Day by day, strange but happy moments occurred that can’t be explained,'miracles.' We became familiar, yet unfamiliar to each other. As all of us carry an array of untold stories in our heart. Others often say people our age will laugh at anything."
