quarantined life

Just like the majority of students out there, I did not like school, it was stressful, there was homework, tests, grades and etc. School wasn't something I looked forward to, now that doesn't mean that all of my experience at school was bad, because it wasn't, there were good moments. I never really thought of school as a privilege, it was just something I had to go to everyday. It was my daily routine, so once school was canceled due to the Coronavirus, everything changed. I went from waking up everyday at 7 am to staying home all day. It was a crazy change, I never knew how much school impacted my day, keeping me occupied with school activities or just simply interacting with other people. Now with school being cancelled, not only is learning the material given by teachers much harder, something that kept me occupied for 7 hours out of my day is now gone.
