Since the pandemic has started,lot's of things has changed.Our everyday living,going to work became work from home set up.Including schooling are online.Grocery/wet market shopping now also doing online.Food deliveries are on trending.Because people avoid going out to lessen the risks of being infected.Ofcourse,by authorities advice as well,not to go out if unnecessary. Almost all events,celebrations were cancelled.Partying is limitted.So,if they have birthday celebrations,you can celebrate only within your house with a small number of people.We,when some of our family had their birthdays,we celebrated it together with our relatives,but thru online,Video call.Virtual greetings,virtual hugs and kisses are now in.Atleast,we found a way to celebrate and enjoying the day safe and sound at home. Yesterday,my niece,a junior high completer,had their Moving up Ceremony,Completion And Commencement Exercises,but ofcourse still Virtually.It was the most awaiting moment for the students and for their parents and Teachers.It is an Achievement and everybody's goal,to march and going up on stage,accepting the certificates,diplomas,medals and other special award.It was supposed to be that way but sadly it did on another way.Yeah,still happy that finally they reached their goal,but I think it would be more special and mem'rable if Physically they were on that ceremony. I hope and I always pray,this gonna end soon.Hopefully,next academic year,students will experience marching and going up on stage to get their diplomas.
