Interview L: Rainbow in Coventry 12/06/2020
“我有一个特别开心的事情. 有一天我下了课,我那天好像特别特别累,然后走到Claycroft门口的时候,我发现天上挂了两道彩虹。我见过两三次,三四次(彩虹)我感觉,就是那一次是我第一次见彩虹,又大又好看,而且是两道,两个方位各有一道。”
” This picture recorded my first time seeing a rainbow in the UK. I was very tired that day, but when I was at the gate of Claycroft (student apartment at the University of Warwick), I found two rainbows hanging in the sky. They really lightened up my day. “

Interview L: Sunset in Coventry 12/06/2020
我觉得就是一个很小的细节,当时就感觉瞬间被治愈了,我觉得我对考文垂最多的印象可能就是这边的天空,跟天空相关的,就有的时候的晚霞真的特别漂亮。第一学期放假大概是12月初到12月20号之间,有一天晚上,考文垂的天空是紫红色的,特别美,我当时拍了好多照片,那天我刚刚好写完了论文,我就跟室友在外头看了好久的夕阳,还挺开心的。除此之外一些开心事,可能就是学业上的一些成就的时候。
“It was a therapeutic moment, though it was just one of those tiny details in life… My deepest impression about Coventry is probably the sky over here. Sometimes the sunset is just stunning. I remember there was one evening in December, the sky turned purple and red. It was unforgettable! So I took a lot of photos. I also just finished my essay, so my flatmate and I watched the sunset for a long time that day. It was a happy time.”
Interviewee S: Emotional Diary 01/06/2020
“疫情对我的影响,或者说对每个人影响都应该非常大。 我自己是在武汉上大学过,而且我家算是在那边。疫情一开始的时候,虽然我人不在那,但是我是处在所有与疫情相关的信息中心的。”
” The impact of Covid-19 on me or anyone is very significant. I studied in Wuhan and my hometown is near there, so when it all started in China, I felt very much with them, even though I am here.”
“基疫情在武汉爆发的那周,也是新年除夕的那一周。那一周之后,我生活有很长时间都是受到这个疫情的影响和控制,我上学期有一门课是是关于要写每一周的motivation journal,要画motivation graph。其实我在课程assignment 里面有非常具体的讲过自己,在那里面已经梳理过了。”
“The outbreak in Wuhan occurred in the same week as New Year’s Eve. After that week, My life was affected and controlled by the epidemic for a long time. Last semester, I had a course about writing the motivation Journal every week and drawing the motivation graph. In fact, I have written about my feeling in the class assignments and I have combed through them there.“
“基本上我的motivation和我的情感基本上经历了,最开始是非常强健平稳,到中间的the virus approaches之后,我经历了一个剧烈的下滑,并且剧烈的下滑之后,花了很长时间,才慢慢的重建。 而且重建,可能直到现在也算是重建的一部分,现在应该已经恢复的差不多了,但是重建以及被摧毁,里面有非常多的情绪和细节可以讲.”
“In general, my motivation and emotions were very strong and stable before the pandemic. When all started, I experienced a sharp plummet, and it took me a long time to slowly rebuild my emotional strength afterwards, even till this day. About this journey, I have much to share”
