How quarantine has been for me
On March 13, we received the news that school was now to be closed and we have to stay at home for the safety of ourselves and others. The citizens of Virginia have been under quarantine for over two months now and it has been very different for me. For starters, it has been very difficult getting used to learning and doing school work from home. It has made me miss all of my teachers and miss working in the classroom and engaging with other students. I also found it more difficult to study and prepare for my AP exams because I cannot have one on one together questions with my teachers. I really miss getting up every morning and going into school!
Things have also been different concerning Rainbow . For our safety, we are not allowed to hold meetings or other events that will cause us to have to come in contact with one another. I really do miss seeing all of my Rainbow family! However, we have been able to host zoom meetings so we can still meet with our assemblies as well as attend other assembly meetings! So far, I have been able to attend almost all other assemblies across Virginia! It is so nice to see everyone and see how they have been coping with quarantine.
In order to get through quarantine, I have been doing many puzzles as well as getting outside and exercising. I try to go out as much as I can so I don’t have to stay inside my house all day! Overall, quarantine has been something new to get used to but it is helping keep everyone safe and make sure that we continue to stay healthy.
