In my previous Pandemic Journal entry about the victories that have made the past four months remembering, I briefly mentioned writings – I continue that in my W-day entry.
In one of the meetings I attended last week, I finally had a chance to do a face-to-face discussion with a colleague. Finally, I talked to a living person. Our meeting was about our school’s Love of Reading Week, but at least half of the time we discussed pandemic stuff. Somewhere during the talk, my colleague thanked me for the articles that I had written since our school moved to an online learning program, saying that I did a “great work” chronicling this part of our school’s history. I could not believe it when she praised my work. Someone appreciated my articles, how cool is that?
Somewhere in my previous entries, I also mentioned how writing articles for work has, somehow, helped me maintain my sanity. It’s difficult, considering I had to do all interviews remotely and most of the information I received was in Chinese. That gave me the chance to learn new words, to the point that it got so tiring because the more you decipher new characters and unlock new expressions, the more you need to learn more.
Anyway, here I list some of my articles – I think I need to review and proofread them once more!
