Campus has hit alert level two

Nobody related to the school has been diagnosed, but they are sending students home (absent extenuating circumstances), and online classes for everyone! I wonder if my one seminar will continue online somehow, or if it's just cancelled. And I am now worried about my thesis proposal - I need to ask my advisor about what will happen with it. My mom also has to teach online at her school now, but she's done that for years, so she will be okay; she said that at least she will have more time to work in her lab.
People are not panic buying most things, but I went grocery shopping again today to stockpile peanut butter and milk (can always make it into yogurt if I have too much!), and there was a big dent in the ramen and one brand of canned tomatoes. Only the one brand. I'm not sure why.
Anyway, I made coconut milk lentil soup for Z and I tonight and it was very good. And there's enough left over for breakfast. I might go skating tomorrow and Z and I are thinking of going on a hike or something on Friday or Saturday.
I took a break from my Japanese textbook to learn some words off the packaging for the Japanese sunscreen I bought recently (it came with braille on the outer packaging, which is a pretty cool design feature). One of the words I looked up doesn't appear to actually exist - a typo? - but now I know how to read 'chlorinated bleach' in Japanese.
