Hello everybody. I am so excited today. I have a very special guest on my swell page. Thank you for tuning in. Shristi Sharma. Shrishti is a student that hails all the way from India. They are super interesting and I'm so excited to interview them. Tracy and I kind of started a dialogue about a topic that resonates with every student across the world right now. And that is what is it like to be a student during Covet? What Jas your experience been?

I am a very introvert kind of personality, a very nerdy person and very shy around people so I'm trying to improve this behavior so I'm really sorry if I get nervous at certain points. Yeah
Wow. Bioengineering. That's amazing. How cool. So you mentioned that you started schooling during the second wave of the pandemic when we were completely online. So what's been your experience experience really only being online at your University? Because I was really lucky to start my four year University experience in person. And then literally in the middle of my second semester, we were thrown into COVID. But I I'm curious to know what it was like to just immediately start your College experience all online

But communicating and making friends online was a bit tough. I was not that active in any of my College groups on WhatsApp initially but then with time I opened up and now me and my friends, we have everyday Hangouts via Google meet right after our classes in and I'm really excited to meet them in person
So I was also wondering, too, I love that you touch on the social aspect, and I was wondering if you had any thoughts on what it's like studying not in person, because I know for me, I had a really hard time not having the teacher right there to just look at my work and help me with things. I'd have to email back and forth and and get emails back right away. And it really just made my schoolwork suffer. But yeah
