Codename Shrimp Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 When i am angry and want to punch stuff, i get a violent game to let me punch stuff in it xD also i miss coffee.

Gaming has been the only thing to help drop my anxiety in these past few months of the pandemic. The multitude of issues that plague me aren't connected to the pandemic. In fact, the pandemic has practically gotten rid of being forced to experience one of them on a daily basis, that is being forced to go where many people are. I can't stand crowds and being in a room with multiple people, especially if they're strangers, gives me panic attacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acacia Sgt Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Hm? I suppose as beverages of choice for me are... Tea, fruit juice, chocolate milk... that's about right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No more rushing to get to the bus in the morning, no more looking for the room and seeing if it changed, fewer fixed classes, meaning you can pretty much do stuff whenever you feel like it (unless it's a seminar). Also, participating in a seminar without leaving bed is both very comfortable and very hilarious. I do understand where other people are coming from when they say they don't like it, though.

Three courses, all of which I needed (and wanted) to visit for different modules, all three of them were at the same time: Wednesday at 10 o'clock until 12 o'clock. It was infuriating at the time, now I kinda find it hilarious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, why not? Honestly, I would rather be from a different generation than my own. My generation is mostly known as the tide-pod-eating, social media obsessed bunch of idiots who don't act like they have a brain in their head.
