Coronavirus Poem

I don't know how everyone else is feeling, but I am having a hard time staying positive. Normally I am not an anxious person, but this social isolation is really getting to me! I like the simple details that this poem points out, and I also like the positive perspective that maybe we will appreciate things more because of this experience. You know I hate Tuesdays, but maybe I will appreciate boring Tuesdays a little more after this! This all feels overwhelming, but this poem also reminds us that it will pass, and we will return to life. I hope that when we come out of this we are all better one way or another.

  1. I agree, I'm finding it difficult to stay positive. I'm usually such a busy person. I hate sitting at home doing nothing so this is really different for me. I have no motivation to even workout or do yoga.

  4. I have been venturing out and discovering some new interests like painting,I got a book without it having to be a requirement for school, organizing, and I also have been keeping the house clean. It is hard to stay positive when this is basically my last year of freedom before I have to grow up in college. I hope that we all now appreciate how much school impacts our everyday lives socially and mentally.

  5. That's the one highlight of this is that I've been given tons of time to read. Of course the book I'm reading is 700 pages and I average 10 pages an hour, so it's going to take me forever.

  6. It honestly is getting very difficult to stay positive. Everyday something new pops up on the news, and it brings us down more. I really hope we come back to school after Spring Break!

  8. Being in the house for such a long time has been really boring and making it hard for me to keep a positive mentality. One good thing is I've found time to start applying for extra scholarships since I don't have much to do. I hope we get to go back to school and the seniors get to finish out the year.
