campus. You love driving here because the bridge has big lanes, and the view is

incredible. It’s a little cloudy, but the blue sky is still peeking out for now.

here were parts to school that made going a little easier. Whether that may

be the simple things like nice weather or friends, many of us have had to
suck it up and get our education regardless of COVID. It’s harder to see the
beauty of the world when we're cooped up inside our bedrooms on Zoom.
Luckily, this won't last forever since nothing does. Here’s a timeline for what we
could look forward to once this era resides only in history books.

630 am

Waking up in the early morning. The birds have barely awoken. The stillness in
the world fills you with peace and comfort. You open your blind and a few rays
of the sun greet you. Even the sun itself hasn’t woken up yet. You see dewdrops
on the grass through your fogged up window. Drawing a smiley face, you reflect
off the window as though it’s a mirror. Yawning, you make your bed. Good
morning world!

 

3:30 pm

Classes in Coquitlam are done for today, but that doesn’t mean the day is over.
You head outside. Oh—it looks like the clouds caught up after all. The smell of
fresh rain on concrete fills you with joy despite having not brought an umbrella
today. At least you have a hood.

 

7:30 am

Having woken into the world a tad earlier than usual, you take an extra second
to enjoy the scenery. You've sat and drank your coffee, had your fill of breakfast,
gotten ready, and feel good about yourself. Your plants are watered and happy.
Gratitude is written into your journal, and your to-do lists are ready to go.
