Slice of Life

By isabella Rodriguez

Well, welcome back to school ladies and gentleman, quarantine edition! It most certainly has been a rough summer, and I don't know about you guys but I am ready to get back into my school grind and get good grades. How was your summer? Considering there is a worldwide pandemic going on, I'm sure you guys didn’t do much because everything is closed. Let's start back to March 13, 2020 the last day of school. Of course none of us knew that was going to be the last day of the 2019-2020 school year and unlike my fellow classmates I was sad to see my sophore disappear. Although my class didn't have it as hard as the other grades, especially seniors, highschool is something you want to look back on and say “ I lived my life to the fullest during those times”. Since the school year was cancelled that means I have been sitting at home for approximately 191 days and I didn’t live my life to the fullest sitting at home watching Glee all day long while eating pizza rolls. Can you believe quarantine has been that long, already ? I sure can't believe it. It feels like yesterday I was in class doing my work, messing around with my friends, picturing in my head what it'd look like if I started a food fight in the cafeteria during lunch time. While now all the students in the world are getting used to the whole online schooling, including me, this is very hard if I say the least. We all have wifi problems, distractions, no one on one with teachers and no social interactions. Although some teachers may say that now that we are at home we have all the time in the world to do all of our work and get good grades, I beg to differ. My grades are doing just fine but what about the students who rely on being in person with their teachers because they can only learn that way, what about the kids who rely on being at school to get away from it for at least 7 hours to get some social interactions so they don't feel so alone. We, the students are going through a rough patch right now; but it will get better.
