Welcome! This page is for students from Crown College One core course, Fall 2019, Section 4 and for the alumni who joined us in various ways.
How are we managing our UC classes remotely?
What are we doing that is fun?
What elements make this situation difficult?
What do we miss about classes/ other students/ Crown/ UCSC/ Santa Cruz?
What can we do now that we couldn't do while living on campus?
OR, just write down what you feel. A haiku, a rant, an editorial.
Please include a picture with more face than mask.

I personally am doing pretty well during this pandemic since I was more or so an introverted person prior to the outbreak. It is a shame, however, that I am unable to visit my favorite Starbucks and boba places, as well as my favorite relax places such as the library. I saw the online classes as an opportunity to take more classes because I don't have to actually walk from one class to another, so the gap between class times could be very small, hence I'm taking 4 classes this quarter(also a good way to kill excess time). Once the pandemic is over, I'll probably jog around the city to get some fresh air and to burn off the weight I got from ordering uber eats and doordash every day.

Now I'm in China which is god's blessing that I had a chance to come back to my home country. During remote education, a problem I meet is a different time schedule. China is 13 hours ahead than the U.S.. which means that an 8 a.m. class in the U.S. is 11 p.m. in China. I get crazy about the chaotic schedule. Although China has efficient virus control, entertainment venues around my home are closing. I have to stay at home. Gaining weight is an annoying but real fact that I have to accept. After the virus is gone, I want to take a trip.
