What happened during the pandemic

Things have been very strange lately. School is not like it used to be. Now, we have to use masks whenever we go outside. We can’t travel and be in large groups like before. When there was school in person I took it for granted, and now that there isn’t school I want to go back. Many people have died from the pandemic. Many people have lost family members, but I am very grateful that my family and I are okay, even though they’re annoying sometimes. I have binge-watched a lot of movies and television shows and discovered new games. I have watched a lot of movies and shows that just reminded me of my childhood, when I used to watch them. During those times I was also able to spend a lot of time with my family, and that brought us closer together. I have discovered brand new games that I can play with my friends whenever I get bored and have nothing else to do. I can ask if they want to play and then we’d set up the game, and I let my sister join us sometimes too. I have had fun during this time too. I miss going out as much as often and being with my friends in school. I also wish that I could’ve said goodbye to my friends the way that I wanted, but I couldn’t, sadly.

I woke up and it was a bit chilly, so I snoozed my alarm to cuddle for a while, because the temperature was lovely for me. I love when it’s chilly, so I tried to take a short nap before getting up for real for school. I was really tired, because I had stayed up until around 11 p.m. reading a book, playing “Among Us,” and watching YouTube videos. I was very entertained and didn’t want to sleep. I knew I would regret that decision in the morning, which I clearly did, but I was doing things that I love, and didn’t want to stop. However, when I got up the second time for real though, I was extremely tired. I wanted to get back to bed. I was still in a sleepy, tired and exhausted mood, so I decided to shower to wake up and get energy. I then got ready, ate breakfast and cleaned up my space to start school. I was still a bit tired, but I managed to focus, I think. I was a bit cold later on, so I got a sweater, and kept on with my day. It has been a pretty fine day, and I am hoping to not make a bad choice again.

10/29/20

I woke up and wasn’t as tired as yesterday, because I went to sleep earlier. I did my usual morning routine. I brushed my teeth, and had some breakfast afterwards. I cleaned up my space for school, and I had a little time until it was school time, so I decided to watch “Wizards of Waverly Place” and play “Among Us” for a while. Then, school started, and it felt kind of long. However, I did really well on my grammar test. I received a 29/30 — one question wrong!! I was really happy for myself. That was also the last class of the day, so I felt very happy that I was going to rest. However, I wasn’t done yet. I decided to join the homework help Zoom to get my reading homework done and out of the way for the weekend. Later, after all the Zooms, homework and school I took a nap, and chilled for the rest of the day. I believe it was a pretty successful day.
