maeveleI mean, it happened, but different and smaller. post con exhaustion was just as big, but that might be because I went in exhausted. The pandemic definitely killed most of the parties and casual social spaces, but there were still panels and speeches and such.
I realized that having really only talked to my housemates for 2 years has had a huge impact on my already lacking social confidence, so I didn't talk to very many people, or join in conversation groups when I did see them, even among people I know, because my brain tells me I'll be bothering if I'm not explicitly invited, and probably even then. Was nice chatting to the few people I did though, and in retrospect wish I had joined in more.
I'm really impressed with how well it came off, even with all the restrictions necessary, so much respect for everyone who made it happen. Really hoping that by next year we are back in full force.
