Many of us have experienced restrictions on movement and social contact during the pandemic. Talk about any restrictions that have especially affected you.

The most drastic change for me with the restrictions on movement and social contact has been that I am not able to return to my university for the Fall 2020 semester, and was pulled off of campus in March 2020 for the end of the fall semester. This is only my second year of college, so it has been emotional and difficult and sad to be fully online and not having the typical college experience. I have not seen my college friends since march when I moved off of campus, I had to move back in with my family and fully quarantined for several months. Restrictions have shifted throughout these five months, but it's been strange to only see close family and friends, go everywhere masked, never travel, avoid eating out, and watch the world go through endless turmoil all from my childhood home.
