There have been several regulations placed in Ecuador since the COVID-19 outbreak began. One of them was that people could only leave their house to get food or medicine. Also, some vehicles could only go out on a specific day dictated by the last number in their license plate. This caused a very sharp decline in the number of cars that were out in the streets. Many people would go to buy food in bicycles since they could not take the car out.
Given the circumstances, several regulations where put in place in CPH. There are several regulations. For example, you need to be wearing a mast whenever you go to buy food and must keep a six-foot distance between yourself and the other students. There are hand sanitizers next to the elevator in the ground floor and the floor is marked showing six feet. This encourages the students to keep their distance from each other. This is me wearing a mask.
The best way to connect with my friend and family is through facetime or zoom. I talk with them every day. My family is currently in Quito and so are my friends from Ecuador. My friends from union are all around the world so there is always the problem of time difference. I really enjoy talking with my friend since it can get very lonely here on campus.

I am an RA in CPH for this spring term and one of the things that I decided to do was to create a CPH Instagram page. I followed most of the residents of CPH and share news and stories. I post the daily menu every morning so that students can see what will be served in the downstairs kiosk. We also like to get recommendations as to ways to improve the residents’ experience in CPH. I like posting the weekly events that the RAs are planning and we even posted the LEGOs that the students made. This Instagram page is a way to connect students and let them know what is happening on campus on a daily basis.

After we got the email that students had to go back home due to the COVID-19 outbreak in March, several students asked to stay. Around 65 students requested to stay on campus. The students that stayed had to disclose the reason why they could not go home. Many international students like myself where unable to go back to their home country due to closed borders. A few weeks later, students were relocated to CPH, the only building in which every student would have their own bathroom. I had to move all my things from my room at Fox to CPH. The good thing is that facilities was helping students move so it was not as hard as it could have been. I was given a RA room in CPH and have been here since.

During the term the UNITAS club got together and made bags with essentials for each student staying on campus. They delivered the bags in CPH and the RAs where in charge of distributing them. In the bad there where snacks, cleaning supply and a seed with a flower pot and soil. I had no idea what kind of seed it was but decided to plant it nonetheless. It brought me something to do every morning and I really enjoyed watering it and watching it grow over time. I am still not so sure what it is but it still keeps growing. The plant has proved to be more than just an addition to my room. It is weird when you live alone like me and human contact is so minimal that even a plan can make a big difference.

My birthday was in February so I was lucky than I did not have an online birthday celebration like many of my friends. Still, we have managed to make the most out of zoom when it comes to birthday parties. We have managed to bring people together, make videos and to really exploit our creativity. The people that showed up are all across the world in almost every continent. It was very nice to see each other and to get together to celebrate a birthday. We asked everyone to make videos of themselves saying happy birthday and then we combined it into one big video that we showed during the zoom celebration. It was a lot of fun to see everyone’s reaction to the video. It was a small way to celebrate a friend’s birthday from afar.
One day I saw a bunny in the first floor of CPH. It belonged to one of the members of the staff and it made my day. The students that came down to get food saw him. It was a very pleasant surprise and he was very cute.
