Due to the lockdown that started in March of 2020, many people around the world had seen their lives slow to a crawl in a matter of months, including my own. And as the lockdown persisted, I saw many people either going into a more recessive state or using the newfound time to themselves to better themselves and learn new skills from cooking, drawing, making clothes, etc. At the time of me seeing this I had to make the choice of which way I would go with using my time. I had thought long and hard about what I was going to do until I had realized that I wanted to hone my skill of drawing. Throughout the lockdown I would interact with many forms of art from anime and manga and made art referencing the ones that had changed me as a person and allowed for me to prosper. In addition to this I had told myself that I wanted to inspire others to change their life and pursue their passions through the hard times, and so, anytime I would make a piece of art I would post it onto my instagram page with words of encouragement alongside my own thought process at the time of making it. These photos in the contribution make up some of my favorite works that I had made during the lockdown and only make up a small portion on the total works I made.

I have shared my stories, thoughts, and experiences with the COVID-19 pandemic that I am currently living in.
Bitter-Sweet Last Day
This is the cake my parents got me for my last day of my online classes for senior year. Although this day was one I had imagined I would be spending with the people I had spent all of high school with and had to celebrate via FaceTime instead, it marked the end of one journey and the begging of the one I would be starting at Springfield College.

Everyone’s life has drastically changed since the world entered a pandemic from COVID-19. The things every college student took for granted like athletics, graduation, in person classes, and dinner in dining hall was suddenly all taken away from us. This video is a message from college students to college students expressing the importance of practicing social distancing. Practicing social distancing is something that can save a person who is more susceptible to disease than you are. We are staying home to save the lives of our parents and grandparents. This time is something no one has ever experiences before and it is hard for young adults to accept since they feel they are wasting away their college time. I think it is important to preserve this video because it expresses the unity of college students everyone coming together during this pandemic. I would want someone to notice the transition from the beginning of this video of the college boy saying nothing is going to stop him from partying to the rest of the video of college kids expressing the importance of staying home to help flatten the curve of COVID-19 deaths.

I chose this email as my contribution because receiving this email went against my beliefs. No one in my household was vaccinated and I didn’t believe in taking the vaccine because during the two years Covid 19 started I didn’t get covid, so I didn’t see the purpose for getting the vaccine. The vaccine doesn’t stop you from getting covid it only helps with symptoms and my parents and I both were against the vaccine and they didn’t want me to take it either. However, in order to come on campus and live on campus it was required. In conclusion I thought that using this email would show how Covid basically made decisions for me and I didn’t really have a say in that decision even though it was my personal belief because I didn’t have a medical or religious exemption.
