This year was challenging for me as I dealt with some personal issues in addition to the pandemic that affected everyone in many ways. I think these challenges helped me grow a lot in a short amount of time because I had to adapt to new situations as well as I could. For example, the transition to living back at home and taking online classes was very difficult and at first I really struggled to get back into the groove of things. However, I was able to plan and figure out how online school could work for me and I was able to finish the year on a pretty good note.
