The start of online school. Everyone was excited of the idea of online class since they will now attend school at home. He also thought the same way. But he later regretted it. More than 50 assignments in the first week of class. That is when his life took a turn. Every single thing in his life changed just because of some assignments. His happy and peaceful life is now gone; All that is left are assignments, assignments, and more assignments.
The first day of class. Everyone took turn on introducing themselves. It was nothing special since they have been doing it every school year. They taught school was going to be easy since everything is now online. What they did not expect was the upcoming buffet; Buffet of assignments. A buffet that will challenge their lives. A buffet that some might see as a good thing but everyone else hated it; Especially him. He was taken aback with the amount of tasks given to them on the first week.
One week later, he is still trying his hardest to finish all the tasks. That was the first time in a long time that he had been doing homeworks in front of a screen for the entire day, which had to be completed the other day. That was the most stressful thing he had ever encountered after a very long time. He thought of abandoning those assignments so he can take some rest but he did not. If not for the high expections of his parents and uncles and aunts, he would certainly not do any of those.
Everyday is assignment day. After his done with one assignment, he will start making another one right after. He felt like he is already working full-time. He did not have the time for leisure because each assignment needs to be passed the other day which is the reason why he is still awake pretty late. He wakes up late just enough to attend the class but not enough to have breakfast. Even after all the stress that built up, he still has not missed any assignments. Every assignment that he passed gave him a feeling of accomplishment; Doing tasks that has short due time made him do more which almost led him to almost be awake for the whole day.
1 month later, after going through difficulties given by the school, he received a message from the pincipal stating that they will now reduce the amount of assignments to be given to students. He was ecstatic after reading it. He was so happy that he almost got to the point of crying. 3 days after the announcement, he could feel the amount of assignments slowly decreasing. He now finally has time to relax and relieve stress. His mental health is now well enough to continue doing homeworks. He would never want that to ever happen again.
