I left three chocolate croissants in my oven as I frantically left my apartment in NYC. And there have been articles about rats . . . So once a day I panic over the rotting croissants in my apartment (where I still have to pay an absorbent amount on rent).
I am just struggling with performing at a high level in a suboptimal environment. I live in NYC and I’m in a small apartment with my whole family. I can’t go to the gym or go outside for non essential things. I had COVID and I know people who have it and who’ve died from it. I think many professors have understood this but some can’t fathom why students aren’t performing as well or attending class and this is why.
