 We have been through a lot of adjustments and difficulties to this new scheme of learning. There are instances that we cry over unfinished modules, missing assignments and other responsibilities we failed to do. There are countless of unspoken battles, frustrations, and stress along in this rigorous and challenging year.

 However, few months from now, school year 2020-2021 is about to end. Yet, no one is still certain if face to face classes will resume knowing the current situation of global crisis. But what everybody is certain about is the hope that everything will be back to normal.

Sometimes, our unhealthy habits are another factor that negatively affect our learning behavior. Though, leisure time is important for our health, we always need to know when to start and learn when to stop. Distance learning is a self-directed learning and nobody knows when it will end, thus it is important to adjust and cope with the situation.

Right now, one thing that should never end is the support from our family and loved ones. Most of the time we are struggling over our modules and classes, but we need to prioritize our mental health as much as we are concerned with our grades.

Therefore, in order to finish this school year and the possible years of distance learning,we have to maximize our time and resources, set goals, work progressively, change our unhealthy habits, and start rebuilding ourselves. Only then we can succeed with good health, may it be physical or mental amidst this uncertain days of pandemic.
