The first half-semester back on campus brought with it a flurry of feelings, both confusing and enlightening. We asked State Press staff and ASU students to write to us about their experiences returning to in-person schooling in 100 words or fewer.

Growing up, I liked video games. And I played them a lot. Name the genre and I’ve probably played a title from it. With their deep and often profound narratives coupled with their cinematic scores and breathtaking visuals, I couldn’t get enough of them.

The sunset — all reds, purples and yellows— spread across "A" Mountain and painted a scene of relaxation, serenity and absolute beauty. Ever since I started working night shifts two years ago during my freshman year, I rarely saw sunsets.

The lights are dim, the curtains gray, the spastic sunlight is seeping in through the cracks in the blinds.

There are many forms of kindness that reveal how we interact with each other and perceive the world. Though I believe there are more than two types, the main ones I have personally seen the most are active and passive kindness.

Like some other members of my generation, I can be a bit more caring, sensitive and in-tune with the world than most. But the poisonous side of these qualities (this finer attention to joy and thus pain) is that we struggle more severely with mental health difficulties than almost any generation before us. As a result of these struggles, I’ve found myself relying on unhealthy coping mechanisms — oversleeping, overeating and leaving my room messier than normal.

Quarantine has made me incredibly unmotivated and not ready to be back in the swing of school life.

The past few weeks have been filled with endless turmoil — the good kind of turmoil; the kind that’s necessary; the kind that brings about powerful and necessary change — but nonetheless, turmoil.

The coronavirus has managed to throw so much of our lives out of rhythm, from work to mental health and everything in-between. One area that hasn’t been getting as much coverage has been the prospect of finding love and belonging throughout these difficult times. How does the fact that we are following social distancing practices affect our fundamental needs for human togetherness? How does self-isolation damage, if it all, our ability to function in a loving relationship? How do dating apps fit in?

Having been in quarantine for over two months now, I’ve found myself spending a lot of time with myself. And by a lot, I mean an almost disturbing amount of time with myself.

Grief, in mainstream media, is often seen in grandiose depiction — the mother who lost her child, crying storms of tears and unable to leave the bedroom; the boy who lost his father, disabled emotionally to the point of depression; or, the woman who lost her husband, setting out on a journey to fill the void left behind.

About a year and a half ago, I began the habit of journaling daily.

Growing up in Scottsdale, Arizona, where rain is a rare commodity, I become giddy at the sight of gray clouds in the window. Rain, above all else, brings a new perspective to my eyes.

A great deal of my internal thought process revolves around the notion of personal responsibility.
When it comes to group work specifically, I generally take the role of the leader. I’m usually the real nit-picky one who devotes their entire existence to the group project. I'm rarely able to take a back seat, and I can usually be found passionately yelling about some obscure, trivial detail.

In a journey for personal growth, I’ve found developing oneself is often a balancing act: We must not float too directly in one direction, otherwise, we risk skewing our worldview toward a certain narrative.

At the beginning of last week, I took a challenge to abstain from social media for a week. The challenge was appealing: in an age so dominated by the use of social media, I wondered what the world would look like through a lens unclouded by the looming sphere of Facebook and Twitter.

A little over a year ago in a burst of productivity, I decided to focus my efforts on taking a more active presence on Quora. The website is similar to other question and answer sites like it, however, the passion of the writers present in the Quora scene is unmatched.

Solving the problem of loneliness creates a paradox.

When it comes to cooking, most of my weeks start and end the same: I tell myself I should cook food for the week; I deliberately choose not to and eat out instead; I brew intense and passionate feelings of self-hatred for not cooking; consequently, I am completely unmotivated to cook, and I eat out again.

Midterms, registering for classes and the wonderful chaos of college can bring unwanted stress. I know these past few weeks have been particularly stressful for many of us, including myself. Here are the places I like to spend time when I need a break and a fresh perspective.
