Today, I woke up at 10 a.m. It was a little late for me, but I got ready and left my house without being too rushed. After getting ready, I went to the station and took the train to my university. Since it was the first day of class after the summer vacation, I felt a little strange because I had gotten used to having a lot of free time during the vacation. When I arrived at the university, I saw many students who I had not seen for a while. It was nice to see my classmates again and talk about what we did during the summer vacation. I attended my first class after the summer break and tried to concentrate on what the teacher was talking about. At first, I felt a little tired, but I gradually became more focused during the class. Going back to university reminded me that I need to get back into my regular routine. I also realized that I want to make good use of this semester and enjoy my university life. After class, I took the train home. Today was not a very special day, but I was happy to start university again. I hope I can have a productive semester, enjoy my classes, spend time with my friends, and make many good memories during the rest of this year.

Dear diary, Today was quite a good day. After I woke up, I had my usual coffee. I know I should change my routine, from time to time, but I really can’t give up my morning’s cup of coffee. However, I managed to replace the after-lunch coffee with a mug of green tea. Are you glad? Does this prove I have enough willpower? I’m joking… Do you remember the project I had been working on? I had finished it last week and had delivered the file. Guess what? My boss was super happy! We will enact the plan very soon. Now I have to go. I’ll write to you soon! John

Catching COVID-19 was an incredibly exhausting and painful experience. It began with a mild headache, but the virus quickly took over my entire body.The worst part was the extreme fatigue and intense body aches. Every muscle felt bruised, making it difficult to even move in bed. I suffered from a high fever, severe chills, and a heavy chest. A persistent, dry cough kept me awake for nights. Eating became completely pointless because I lost my sense of taste and smell entirely; everything tasted like nothing.The physical pain was bad, but isolation was also mentally tough. Staying locked in one room and worrying about my health caused a lot of anxiety. It was a miserable experience.
