14 Zoom Moments Every Student Can, Unfortunately, Relate To In Online Lectures

In This Article:

With back to school season coming up, students are getting used to the new culture of online lectures and remote learning. Here are some relatable parts of the Zoom experience!

1. Reading the room to see if other people have their cameras on

"being in a class on zoom like"

2. “Can you hear me?”

There will always be some type of audio issue, so make sure to test your speaker and microphone!

3. The echoey feedback when someone forgets to mute

Or when you can hear parents, pets, and sirens in the background.

4. When someone screenshares and they forgot to close their other tabs

Getting a glimpse of others' email inboxes can be a bit awkward.

5. The chat is either thriving or silent

Make sure to send your chats to the right person, too.

6. Googling if other people can see if you’ve pinned their video

(They can't.)

7. Fun backgrounds

The latest green screen technology has never been more accessible.

8. Wearing pajama pants on the bottom

The duality of business casual and comfortable sleepwear should be the next fashion trend!

9. Checking out everyone’s house decor

Huh. Professor Smith has some nice wallpaper.

10. Staring at yourself the whole time

And finding your best angle, of course.

11. When someone leaves and everyone gets the notification

"Sorry, my WiFi cut out."

12. The pause when you enter a breakout room

Everyone's on mute. Who will be the first to speak??! The tension is astounding!

13. Waving goodbye, leaving the room, and immediately leaving your computer

Zoom fatigue is real, so don't forget to rest your eyes after staring at a screen for a long lecture!

14. Setting up the Zoom links and passwords for your next class. 

And get ready to do it all over again.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
