Should we be scared of the Coronavirus?


Everyone including some of my loved ones are scared of the new Corona Virus that's spreading all throughout China and have had some cases arise in the U.S., causing more of a scare. I think that we shouldn't be worried about it because one, it's mostly in China and the death rate for it isn't high. So as long as we stay clean human beings, I think we should be fine. Also, the way the news corporations portray it is not just reporting the news but trying to get a rise out of people.

Also, we've had other "scares" like the Ebola virus and the Zika virus. Both spread to the U.S., both had worse death rates, and both disappeared from the news months if not weeks later. I think we have the knowledge and capabilities to keep the virus from getting out of hand in the U.S. But those are my thoughts, let me know what you all think about how serious this is for us.

Moving On

  Moving On As I am finishing up my undergraduate career at ASU, I find myself lost in between applying to medical school and finding a job. Finding a job is not so difficult but being employed full-time while studying to retake the MCAT may prove to be. The MCAT will require lots of study time for me as I didn't do well on my first attempt. Setting time aside for everything, studying, family, girlfriend, and time for myself is something I've always had difficulty with this. I hope I can make a schedule that isn't too difficult and that I can stick to. I think making time for oneself is very important not just for a student, but for everyone. That's something I've learned at my time at ASU. So many things can happen while you're focusing on all the homework, housework, going to your job, taking time for yourself mentally and physically can make an impact on your lifestyle. Depression and anxiety can easily take over so working out, going on walks, etc. are essen...

Thankful

  Thankful Since I am not going to be in classes next semester I've had time to think about my undergraduate career. All the stress, time in the library, and all the people I met and how everything has impacted me and my life. It's been a lot on my mental health, physical well being, just everything you can think of, and now it's over. I can say with utmost confidence that I do not regret doing this at all. I loved every hard, emotional minute of it. I am very grateful for having the opportunity to have attended ASU as well as GCC. I am grateful for the financial assistance of this scholarship program. I am grateful for the TRIO program, all my professors for being understanding of situations, and many more. I hope I made as much of an impact on you as you have made one on me. Until I see you in my next adventure, good bye. Thank you I am blessed

Living in Quarantine

Living in Quarantine Being at home all the time is something I'm used to or at least being cooped up inside, so it's not too different for me. The difficult thing now is the changes in routine, not having to wake up at certain times, driving to school and work. I now work from home on my laptop. But the Zoom meetings help, even though only one of my classes has implemented it for lectures, I wish more of my classes did that but the other classes have either audio embedded Power Points or recorded video lectures so these help as well. I also use different platforms to hold student meetings along with Zoom like Google Hangouts, Google Meet, Snapchat and so on. I feel like using these platforms like this has made things easier and has kept me sane. I am trying my best not to go outside, especially because I love the temperatures this time of year but I still do but I usually go out when it's late and I'm in my car playing Pokémon Go. We should all ...
