“When 3rd grade first went online,

It was actually pretty nice because I don’t like waking up early. No matter how early you put me on the bed, I can’t sleep until 11 or something, and now I wake up at 10 in the morning. I actually can’t really remember my past life for a year or so. I can’t remember anything small. I mean, I know what life was like. We were free and we could just go anywhere. Even on a crowded line, where it was so crowded you had to squeeze between people, like that. But now you have to be six-footed from people. I miss being able to go to school and do activities, especially recess with swings. I’m just, sometimes I’m scared to go to the park and play swings because I’m kinda scared they’re not corona-repellative. Well, maybe I actually am a bit scared, because the coronavirus can spread quickly and kids don’t have vaccines yet. If I catch it, I don’t know what I would do. Sometimes I really do wish I was back with my friends, like Abel, or Rachel, like when I’m a bit lonely. I don’t know. I just feel like most grownups don’t understand my situation sometimes. I just don’t know how to explain it.”
