Lecture
Submitted Jan. 12, 2021, 12:30 a.m. by sp4cel0verLol just started this zoom lecture and the prof is a white guy which isnt the point but anyway usually nobody turns on their cam for lectures but i suppose since the class size for this module is pretty small at 22 ppl he requested all of us to do so. At the time i was in the toilet peeing lmfao and i panicked. Also i didnt wanna show my background so i was searching for the change background function but i always get locked out for some reason so i needed more time but then he said “come on, just 2 more people... (my name) you can do it” WDYM. Ofc i can. Its just a switch of a button. Lol wtv guess im overreacting but that made me feel so embarrassed. Anyway i eventually turned my cam on and i just looked like a sausage thumb. Meanwhile there were a few beckies LOLOLOLOLOL. Doesnt help that ive gained a lot of weight and am trying to straighten my back so i have a noticeable double chin and it just fucking sucks fml
Idk what the point of this post is just needed to vent for whats gonna come for the next few months of me looking like a stale sausage thumb to my classmates :)
Put some vaseline on the cam next time lol.
Im just gonna switch on a different background and wear a mask so nobody knows im actually at home pretending im not lol
I'm so sorry you guys have to turn your cam on. I lived through nearly a year of online classes with "Sorry my cam is broken" or "I'm not using a Laptop and I don't own a webcam" lol
Props to you turning it on, I would've dropped out and done the class over again in the next semester. But I am very fortunate that I'm able to do that because student loans are not a thing in my country.
I've used the same excuses but some of the teachers asked us to use our phones which have a front camera and a mic by default. Still didn't use them tho, PC > mobile for me
That's harsh, our teachers can't really force us to use a certain device and they can't check attendance. I'm super thankful that's the case at my uni.
