My workview and my lifeview To me, work is a capitalistic concept, but, since I live in a capitalistic society, I must comply with society. A society of a size like ours will automatically create social classes and a work system. Although the concept of work has a lot of flaws, it also has its strengths; work allows you to help contributing to society, occupies you and helps you earn money. Work must be something I am passionate about, and it shouldn’t feel like a weight on my shoulders every morning nor every Sunday evenings. I want to wake up every day and feel like I am going to have fun and make a difference, big or small. I think there are three main components to a good work; it has to be useful, something you love, something you’re good at something that helps you earn enough money for your desired lifestyle. If one of these components is not met, I won’t feel fulfilled. In my current life, what matters to me the most is the environment in which I live. By environment, I mean my social entourage and the (geographical) place that surrounds me. I need to feel fulfilled with the right people around me who make me feel comfortable and happy. The place I live in also has an important impact on me because I like to be surrounded by something that is aesthetically pleasing and that stimulates me. I am a very independent and self-governing person. In fact, I don’t need my family to always be next to me. They often bring bad energy to what I’m focusing on, and I like to be alone. I enjoy the time I spend with my friends, but I absolutely need some time alone for myself. I love being alone and do activities that I love without caring about someone else. As an example, I often take long walks for more than 4 hours to explore the city and the nature. I am very curious and love to discover news things and places. I can bring a pen, a notebook, art supplies and headphones to make me feel at peace.

A Cancelled Prom As the class of 2020 has drown in tears because our end of year is completely gone, I don't share the same feeling as my fellow classmates. Of course I would've preferred to have my Graduation ceremony, my promotion and my album signed by my teachers and other classmates but I think that my year shouldn't feel so miserable. In fact, I'm relieved: I think the whole graduation thing is materialist and fake. I personally don't seek to impress my fellow classmates with my outfit and hang out a whole evening with people that I don't particularly feel like I belong with. Everything seemed very stressful and huge for nothing in comparaison to Europe where high school students barely celebrate! On the other hand, I think the fact that I can't get my album to be signed by people that I want to have memories from kind of makes me sad because that would've been a great souvenir. Moreover, I think we'll all remember this year and tell it to our kids as a unique situation (one-of-a-life-time!). I believe that's better because that makes the class 2020 unique and unforgettable, that's definitely an anecdote that no other year will have! Don't you agree? I'm curious to know what kind of "online" prom or "in-car" prom (I saw that on tiktok, check it out!!) we'll have...

The period between Christmas and New Year It's that time between Christmas and New Year where we don't know what to do, we are left with our imagination to fill our day. Nobody knows what day of the week it is, nor the date or time of the day. We are eating the rest of the meals prepared for Christmas. We also go to bed very late and wake up late in the morning or even in the afternoon. This period is relaxing but boring, we've, thus, got plenty of time to think about our new year resolutions. What are yours?
