I'm Getting Bored

      The first thing I am going to do when my state reopens is make plans with my friends. Even though I have been staying connected with them through social media, it just isn't the same. I miss being able to make memories with them in person. I really hope that we don't have to be quarantined during the summer. I have been super excited and have been planning to hangout with a bunch of people over the summer since last year, and I don't want all of that planning to go to waste. Hopefully everyone is free and able to hangout the second we are let out of quarantine.
      Another thing I hope to do when my state reopens is shop. I love shopping, whether I am actually buying things or just browsing different stores. I have been doing some online shopping of my own recently, but I never have luck with online shopping. For example, I ordered a swimsuit last year and received something that looked nothing like the picture on the website. I tried again this year and ordered another swimsuit, so we'll see if I have any luck. I wish I could just go to the store and do this process in person, but anywhere I would go is closed. So hopefully stores can reopen soon!
      In general, I am just so ready for all of this to be over. I haven't been the same person since the beginning of April. I haven't been focusing and completing my schoolwork on time, and I just haven't been in a good mood. I hope to return back to my normal self soon!

Coronavirus is Killing Me, and I Don't Even Have It


      This break is driving me almost insane. The coronavirus has caused me to become one of the laziest people alive. I am still keeping myself active by running every once in a while, walking around town, and hitting my volleyball up against the side of my house, but I am also wasting my day away doing other things. Before online school began, I had been sleeping in until around noon. That is very unlike me. On any other day, I would be up by 6:30 to get ready for school. But there is no need to do that anymore with the virus spreading. I then waste the rest of my day away by staring at my phone screen and taking small naps. 
      Now that online school is starting, I need to start getting better sleeping habits so I can be ready and refreshed for a day of working on my computer. I truly hope we can somehow go back to school on May 1 for many reasons. I want to see and hangout with my friends, I want to begin my (very short) track season, and I want to have an eighth grade promotion. I have been looking forward to the promotion since I was in sixth grade, so it'll be a huge slap in the face if it were to just be cancelled. I wished there would be an alternate date for it like the high school graduation, but I guess not.
