As Fall 2022 approaches, I am about to start my final year of college. However, I have not visited my college even once. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, my college had to shift to online classes and remote learning. As a result, I have not had the chance to experience the campus life or interact with my fellow students in person.
Although online classes have been convenient, I feel like I have missed out on a lot of things that make college life special. I have never been to the library, attended any college events, or explored the campus. These are experiences that I will never be able to get back.
As I start my final year, I am filled with mixed emotions. I am excited to graduate and move on to the next chapter of my life, but at the same time, I am sad that I have never been able to fully experience college life.
I hope that the situation improves soon, and I can visit my college before I graduate. I am looking forward to creating some memories and experiencing the college life that I have heard so much about.
Update: I have recently learned that my college will be opening up for in-person classes this Fall. I am excited to finally have the opportunity to visit my college and experience campus life. I am looking forward to meeting my professors and fellow students in person, attending classes in a physical classroom, and exploring the campus.
At the same time, I am also nervous about the transition to in-person classes. After so many months of remote learning, it might take some time to adjust to the new format. Additionally, there is still some uncertainty about how the pandemic will evolve in the coming months, which adds a layer of stress to the situation.
Nevertheless, I am grateful for the chance to finally experience college life and make some memories before I graduate. I am hopeful that the situation will continue to improve and that we can all stay safe and healthy as we navigate this transition back to in-person classes.
