A Pandemic That Has Changed The Grounds I Walk On

Something that is not only affecting me, but so many others.

A Pandemic That Has Changed The Grounds I Walk On

No school, nowhere to go, everything is closing, faster than we can salvage and basically I am trapped. Yeah being at home is not that bad. But actually, sometimes it can be. School was an escape from getting out of my bed and actually doing something productive at times. Sports is a major role in my life, but it is being taken from me and so many others. I can only imagine what the seniors are feeling right now and everybody else. Not only that, I do not get the in-school learning experiences, nor do I get to see my friends right now. Nor do I think will for awhile.

I have always stayed in a lot of the time. And the weird thing is, I would have never imagined not being allowed to go anywhere. And here I am stuck at home. Not allowed to go out. Not even out to ride around for a little while. I see friends on social media hanging around with each other still and I just only hope that we are not over reacting or under reacting.

Things are being taken from the shelves of every store you can think of. This is making it impossible to even provide for those who actually need things for their home. And I feel bad. I feel terrible.

There are too many things on social media that people are believing, because that is the first thing they see. Who would have thought staying in could cause so much pain though? Not only for myself, but for everybody around the world.

Those at work, what about them? They cannot stay cooped up inside, they have to help. They are tired, more than tired. Stressed and want to be able to figure things out. But we can only hope everything settles down quicker than the virus spreads.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
