Today I participated in Educational Codeforces Round 190 ( Rated for Div. 2 ) after a long break — my last contest was on February 27th.

Why the gap ? Because on February 28th, the war started, and the internet in Iran was completely cut. and to reach CF, we have to buy expensive VPNs — over $2 per GB. I got connected a few days ago. Today, I finally gave my first contest after 3 months.

Honestly, it feels strange, And a bit sad. So many lost opportunities, So many contests I missed, And the rating I could have gained ....

Still , we try .
