The World is Weird Right Now

The world is weird right now, and I have mixed feelings about this stage of my life. Clearly, there are many reasons I feel this way. The first reason is because we are in the middle of distance learning and not in the classroom. The second reason is because of the Coronavirus, which caused this mess. The final reason I have mixed feelings is because I really am looking forward to all of the things I can do when this stage of my life is over. First and foremost, I have mixed feelings about this stage of my life because of distance learning. Distance learning is having school on your iPad at home. I believe it is a lot like homeschooling but with your classroom teacher leading the work. It is a little more relaxed in the morning because my mom likes to have her coffee and get off to a slower start. However, I miss my friends, my teacher, and the classroom. Although, I do like to be able to spend more time with my family. For example, every night our family does an outdoor challenge and whoever wins that night gets a point. The person with the most points at the end of the month gets a large Maine Mud at the Giffords ice cream stand at Pat’s Pizza. For more proof that I have mixed feelings about this stage of my life, I want to share that the Coronavirus is bad. It is bad because it spreads so fast, and it can harm elderly people. The first way to help stop the Coronavirus is stay at home. Another way is to over wash your hands. You should use soap and water most of the time because we should save hand sanitizer so we don’t run out. Also during this time, it is important to help your community and donate to hospitals and doctors offices. Medical workers are working so hard, and they have the best chance to catch the Coronavirus because they are around people with the virus all day. The final reason I have mixed feelings about this stage of my life is because I can’t wait for this to be done. For example, I can’t wait for baseball season. Baseball is one of my favorite sports, and I just miss playing sports in general. I also can’t wait to get back to school so I can see all my friends and teachers. Finally, I can’t wait to just do normal activities like going out to restaurants and going to sporting events. There are many reasons why this stage of my life is hard, however, it’s not all bad. We are in the middle of distance learning, the Coronavirus is still here, but also I can’t wait to return to my normal life when this is over. I hope you and your family are doing ok now too.
