How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.
In this week, we have to stop our offine courses and switch to onlice courses. What's more, we did a lot of nucleic acid tests to ensure our physical health. However, under so many tests and strict management, I felt physically and mentally tired. I would like to have lessons in the classroom and interact with my teachers, which will improve my study efficiency. I want to be able to go out and enjoy my free time, rather than face the heavy curriculum at school all the time, which made me feel very depressed. Today, I wear a wristband with smiling face and I hope it can make me happy. Hopefully the pandemic will end soon.

Has the pandemic affected your religious or spiritual observance in any way? If so, talk about it.
I haven't been to a church service since things opened back up. There are still too many people in attendance. Since cases are surging, I am cautious about exposing myself to a large group of people. While I am grateful for Zoom and livestreaming, there is much that I miss about weekly worship. My small group changed the meeting time, and I can barely get home in time. I am not singing as much. I miss Communion. The communal aspect of my faith is a core component. This is the second Advent season that we haven't had daily reflections at work. I looked forward to how other workers integrated their faith and work with the readings from the Lectionary. There is a different feel to the week. I feel that just as m personal circle shrunk, so too has worship. I find that I have to turn to more solitary practices of faith.
