[292-298] Since we transitioned to online course, I absolutely hate it. I concentrate so much better when they’re actually there in front of me. So, I’ve had to really work hard at not being distracted by a video game, or a good book on my desk that’s sitting there. And I’m ready to go back to normal classes when it hopefully, you know, that I’ll be back for the fall. On my phone, I had to set up a productivity app that would stop me from my going onto social media during class, because it so much easier when the teacher wasn’t there in front of me. So, I kept on going, being like, “Oh, it won’t matter if I just scroll a little bit,” and then it’ll be like, “Oh no, I missed like half the class.”
[306-312] In addition to coursework, I have to conduct research remotely as well. During spring break, I had to help him set the lab up to be totally remote work. I had already tested all of my samples. I was just working on pulling data from everything and helping write the paper. So, all of my work was already on a computer. It was just making it so that I could access it from anywhere and help the other people in the lab access it from anywhere. So, I mean, for me, it’s going on as it does normally, just like I’m not in the lab working on the computer. Which again, productivity issues, it’s so much easier to get distracted when you’re in the comfort of your own home.
