Final year Japanese major Amy answers five questions about her current isolation set up and her thoughts on the current situation.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. What does your home study area look like?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \u201cI have my trusty IKEA corner desk with an Apple iMac desktop. My desk wouldn\u2019t be complete without my anime DVD collection, Evanescence CD\u2019s and Pok\u00e9mon collection on the shelves. I have my daily calendar, assignment deadline calendar and uni timetable in a visible spot so I won’t miss when my due dates are.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. What has been your favourite aspect of studying online?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      \u201cI have saved a lot of time and money not having to drive to Curtin almost every day and I don\u2019t have to wake up as early to get ready for class, which is a bonus!\u201d<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. What movies and TV have you been watching during isolation?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        \u201cI\u2019ve just been sifting through comedy movies and seasons on Netflix to try and cheer myself up at night after a long day of studying. I just re-watched Miss Congeniality for the umpteenth time and am also watching SpongeBob episodes for some light-hearted cartoons. \u201c<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. What hobbies have you picked up during isolation?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          \u201cI\u2019ve recently got back into playing piano and have been practising that a lot lately. I\u2019m currently learning a few Chopin pieces and it has really helped me take my mind off everything and is a great break from studying. I also enjoy photography and love going out in nature to take some sunset or space photos!\u201d<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. What is something you won\u2019t forget about this time?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            \u201cAll events being cancelled, grocery store item shortages and restrictions, unemployment, businesses closing down and social distancing all basically happened in such a short amount of time and I don\u2019t think anyone knew how to react and we still don\u2019t really know how to handle such a situation. It\u2019s an unforgettable time in our lives because it just seems so surreal and like it\u2019s all a dream.\u201d<\/p>\n
