    - September 28, 2022      We all know the effects of the pandemic on our world economy as well as how people function in society. Without a doubt, the pandemic has caused difficulties for everyone, affecting their lifestyles, work, school and how they interact with others. Soon as the online and modular classes begins, it was a bit difficult for me to adjust due to several reasons. Like lack of internet and studying without someone or teacher to discuss the topics. But there are also advantage of the modular/online learning. I get to have an enough time to bonding with my family and friends and I get to know myself more.       This pandemic made me realize that the biggest enemy of this new lifestyle is boredom. Yes, if we spend most of our time in the room every day, doing the same things again and again, we could hit the limit where we become exhausted from all of the class and assignment.

She was beautiful, for the gleam in her eyes when she talked about something she loved or something she adores. She was beautiful, for the way she thought. She was beautiful, for her capability to make others smile and laugh even if she was sad. She was beautiful, for the way that she's still able to be happy despite of the problems she has. And for me, my beauty is not for something as temporary as my looks, it is a beauty that marked deep down into my soul.     I am Anthoneth, an ordinary girl living in an ordinary place. I am the girl who is trying her best to be independent because I don't want to rely myself in to others. I like people who have sense of individuality. I love expression and anything awkward and imperfect, because that's natural and that's real.      I love music, because of me, music is a therapy. it is a communication far more powe...
