As three months have already passed-while it has felt like forever-there have been a surplus of events in the news since New Years' Day.

I believe we can agree that the month of January went by at a snail's pace. there was a lot to be covered. To start off, I went back to college a=to start my second semester of school. As slow as it went by...we are now at midterms. Regardless of school or not, it has been a busy year. People thought world was three was going to happen, the panic was spread through the country, memes were being made and it was only the first month.

February, who is she? I couldn't tell you what happened this month because it went by so quickly. I only remember Valentine's day because I was by myself and watched a movie with my snacks (hoping to change that). I took a few exams but that was it for me. February was also the month where the new up-coming virus begun.

IT'S CORONA TIME is the theme for March-that and the word "canceled"-since the virus has spread throughout the world. What first seemed to be a minor threat has quickly turned into a "major" one at that. Yes the virus is lethal and yes it does spread, the media has blown it out of proportion. We are in quarantine and now have to do social distancing. Due to this, our university has moved to online classes.

I was really looking forward to a full semester at college with my friends, community, and two-stepping on Thursday nights. One thing I was looking forward to was March Madness, but we no longer have it with us, it has been canceled.

Basketball is canceled.

Soccer is canceled.

Hockey Is canceled.

All sports have been canceled due to COVID-19, we can just cancel the whole month of March.

Looking into the future months, I try to see some optimism in the next few but I also see the virus getting worse among all nations.

In the meantime, while I am quarantined, I better work on my two-stepping.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

It is no secret that many American traditions have changed over time. As we grow older we change in so many ways that it only makes sense that we also change the way we celebrate special occasions. Of course when it comes to the holidays there are some family traditions that many of us still excitedly look forward to, whether it is eating your favorite dish or seeing favorite cousin. However, we all know that the holidays have overall changed a little from what they used to be.
