I was sitting in English class on a Monday afternoon, when my teacher informed us that we should not come to school tomorrow. My entire class was excited but I was somewhat anxious. I was not able to complete certain schoolwork.
My schoolwork was not the only part of my life affected by this pandemic. My, after school dances and my martial arts club was now doing online classes. Without these things, my weeks were free. Now to some that sounds good, but to me that was upsetting because now I had nothing really to look forward too. Now I knew that because I did not have to go to school or martial arts or anywhere else, the days would slowly begin to merge into a blur of days. I had completely lost track of time. Classes rolled past, break times went by in a flash, and online martial arts classes finished faster than ever before.
It hasn’t all been bad, I have spent quality time with my family because they do not have to work for long hours every day, and I am pretty sure that I have read my entire bookshelf of books. I have played music and listened to twice as much as I normally would. My assessments have been sorted and now I can relax a little knowing that I am not going to fail a class.
Siblings may get annoying and sometimes you may want to pull out your hair because they are playing their music at full blast while you are trying to concentrate, but we are all going through the same struggles. We need to remember that we are all in this together. As restrictions are starting to be lifted, we need to make sure that we are keeping each other safe.
