This month has been crazy! I thought that this month was going to be all about volleyball but turns out I was wrong. One month ago, school got out because of Covid-19. I thought that we would be going back soon. But again, I was wrong. In the beginning of the month, I was very interested in learning about Covid-19 (the symptoms, how many people have it, the death rate, etc.) Now I am still curious about it but I know what it can do and its very scary hearing about all the people that it has killed and what it is doing to people who have it. It sounds miserable.
I feel very sad that I don't get to see my friends and family members. I miss getting to talk to them. Because of Covid-19, I had to miss Papa Ron's birthday and all the Easters. I feel kind of guilty for not being able to come to Easter but I know that if staying home will keep me safe, that is something that I need to do. I am so mad that my entire volleyball season got cancelled. I know that we have to stay home but I wanted to win just one tournament and get one medal. I miss my class and graduation. I'm not really that sad because I didn't want to give a speech at EEE but I still miss going to school and getting to see all the teachers and my friends. I miss having sleepovers. It is hard.
I have been trying to distract myself by talking to my friends to make it seem more normal. I have been trying to do the schoolwork that Mr. Higgins has been assigning but whenever Schoology crashed, I couldn't do anything. Now we have to go to paper packets which just seems stupid. I have been reading a lot of my books that I haven't taken the time to read. I have also cleaned out my room to keep my mind off the Coronavirus.
There are good things that have been happening during this time, such as me getting a phone! I was so happy whenever I found it in my Easter basket that I almost dropped it. I got the phone to communicate with my friends. I also like listening to my music. I have been able to spend a lot more time with Molly. I also have been able to play a lot of games with my family such as Blokus, Pictionary, Clue, Speed (a card game), and many more. With the help of my little sister, I got to beat Mom at Blokus!
I don't know what is going to happen for the future of the world but I am kind of scared to find out.
