Corona – Day 0 – This is weird

I'd prefer this Corona.

I’d prefer this Corona.

This is weird, really weird and I can’t believe how fast it happened. I doesn’t make sense to talk too much about the current situation… things will be different in 15 minutes anyway but I’m going to tell you how it makes me feel and what I intend to do.

It looks like schools are closed for (at least) four weeks and restaurants and bars etc. are closing as well. Public life comes to a halt. This is what it must feel like when a war starts in a neighbouring country. This feeling of uncertainty is probably the worst. I know that I’m going to be fine but I cant say the same about everyone I know. This sucks.

So what am I going to do? First things first, I have to make sure that my students get a proper education, not being in the same room as I is probably a good start. I already have a few ideas on how to proceed and I will try to make the best of it. It will be challenging but I hope I can rise to the occasion.

I will probably have to help others getting ready for that as well. A few of us (teachers at my school) have a harder time than me getting around our digital tools and I’ll do what I can to help them. I kind of liken this to “what would you do during the zombie apocalypse” and I like to think that I’d be a helpful survivor.

I’m also going to write more. The plan is to get some pages out each day (probably after the initial school setup phase) and to write a blogpost daily to chronicle these testing times.

Until tomorrow. Stay healthy.
