My Fall semester was like:
1. classes 2 times a week,
2. request maintenance and email back and forth to fix apartment issues on off-days mornings without prompt response and even request cancellation/dismissal/false reassurance/normalization,
3. communicate to deescalate conflicts among roommates (due to me reporting maintenance issues- as heard in the video at the end),
4. do chores and see if others are doing theirs in the shared spaces and in case they did not, make sure you do not come across as dictatorial,
5. do term paper/assignment/prepare for quizzes on off-days evening - sometimes having no clue how to proceed when assignments were way complex than class discussions,
6. prepare for TA job based on chaotic emails from professor on off-days evening as per requirement,
7. navigate through disinformation and misleading information and try to make the right decision,
8. email professors and TAs for clarifications but not getting real help or cooperation often...and so much more.
It only got worse day by day. Only spirituality helped me stay focused and centered and not lose my sanity.
