Life on Lockdown – a philosophical Reflection

It was the time that our class of grade 10 brebeuf will graduate wearing our barong tagalog and
walking up stage, but days before the graduation lockdown strucked. We were all devastated because we
will be stuck in our homes and not be able to go to school and even do normal day to day things. As the
time goes by we liked being stuck in our homes just playing video games during leisure time and
spending a lot of time with our families. And then when it was announced that grade 11 to grade 12
classes will be online I was having a hard time adjusting to this new normal stage and things doesn’t feel
right. It was chaotic and I am lost, it was an odd feeling passing your requirements through eclass and not
by the teacher’s table. It felt like I am wasting a lot of time by sitting all day long in front of my
computer, and there is a risk of having some kind of problems on my health but that is out of context.

I realized that I am too distracted by my gadgets lately and not being able to fulfill my duties as a
student. It doesn’t feel the same anymore. Still, I feel like I should have studied more and gained more
knowledge now that I am an incoming college student. It was not an easy 2 years because all of us have
our own differences and we all have our own time and strategies on how we can adjust on a specific
situation.
