This is a photo of my teammates and me on the bench cheering on our teammates, but as you can see, we're all wearing mask. We have never had to do anything like that ever before and its all just a new and weird precess that is taking some getting used to. Wearing these mask are kind of a hassle for us athletes especially during a game because its very hard to get air through them when youre tired, but we all know that its for the greater good of the world.

Use one-word hashtags (separated by commas) to describe your story. For example: Where did it originate? How does this object make you feel? How does this object relate to the pandemic?
