It's early December, and you know what that means? That's right, its an open and frank discussion on 2020. You can discuss the events of the 2020 Summer Olympics and Paralympics (which will now be held in 2021), Eurovision 2020 (cancelled), and anything that happened in 2020 (which was pretty much nothing except a certain virus taking hold on the world).
Seriously, 2020 will be remembered as the year of a pandemic in which most of us were subjected to lockdown (including here in Melbourne, in which we had a lockdown of over 100 days during the second wave of coronavirus) and many parts of the world may experience worse as they enter winter and may go back into lockdown. In many parts of the world, New Year fireworks has been cancelled (including here in Melbourne, which normally attracts upwards of 400,000 people and is often crowded at Docklands at around 22:00, so I will be watching the Sydney fireworks live on television). We had 820 deaths from coronavirus here in Victoria, including one a few days ago, but we have largely defeated the second wave, but I am concerned about a third wave in 2021 (even though it is now summer here).
This year, a lot of us made discoveries such as Zoom, which I am now pretty much an expert at, having done homework club and attended various webinars via Zoom. I done online courses and I am currently writing a book on Australia's foreign relations with North East Asia (which is my interest). I also have been studying a language (Korean) during lockdown, but I going to focus on that next year (my new year's resolution). I also studied online, and I also did a blog on the forums of my lockdown diary, but fortunately, Melbourne is no longer in lockdown, and I will be going to several Christmas parties in the next couple of weeks.
Various celebrities has died in 2020, including Diego Maradona, Helen Reddy, David Prose and Alex Trebek among others.
So, what was 2020 for you?
