Procrastination and noodles!  🍜🍜 That pre Procrastination and noodles!  🍜🍜 That pretty much sums up a typical day in lockdown for Indian student Megha Rawat, who is doing Business Studies at DCU.   In her first blog as a Student Ambassador, Megha talked about how coming to Ireland brought her out of her comfort zone.  Just as well, because as you will see from this vlog (filmed in March 2021), you need perseverance to keep going when every day feels the same.  Fair play (as we say in Ireland) to Megha, who each day seems to overcome the frustrations and lack of motivation that many students felt while Ireland was in Level 5 lockdown for the first four months of 2021.  😇😇 Now that Level 5 is over and the end of term is here, we wish Megha the best! #internationalstudent #educationinireland #StudentAmbassador #studyinireland #DCU #studyatDCU #BusinessStudies #indianstudent #covid19 #onlinelearning #covidstudies #pandemic #ireland
