ive never played it, but i love animal crossing lol So apparently my mom was exposed to someone who possibly has covid and now everyone else in my family has to stay home and can't go to school/work because if she's exposed we're exposed Great™ when were you supposed to go back to school? stay safe! its better to be safe than sorry. they opened things way too fast anyways. does everyone in your fam have to get tested?

We were supposed to go back next week, but I was going to do first quarter virtually anyway because my school's safety plan sounds chaotic and stressful so it's just easier. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ it's more about the fact that now I have to be around my siblings even more lol
I think only my mom has to get tested for now and we'll see after that. If she's not positive, we're probably fine? But if she is positive then we all have to stay home anyway. So.

ya a lot of the going back plans are crazy. for our area, they are only going 2 days a week in the classroom and the rest virtual but the 2 days are split so like mon/fri will be people with these last names and tues/thurs will be people with these last names etc
true that makes sense

My school let people choose virtual or physical and the physical people have to wear masks and social distance and not share supplies and stuff, which makes sense, it's just that it's always so crowded and the hallways are so tiny that I don't see how "distancing" is possible. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

ya our school didn't have a choice in that as far as I'm aware but it is crazy bc like....there is no way anyone is gonna be distanced, no matter how hard they try and like i work at a grocery store and i am surrounded by people all day and I'm sorry, but we are all on top of each other, even though we try not to be

I had to deal with some anxiety this morning. I went out to the store which was the first time I left the house in a month or two, and it was semi difficult. Managed to pull through though; and it was worth it cause I got some goodies to snack on and I got to watch my mom use the Coinstar machine

I don't miss school. I also am extremely grateful that when I went it was nice and ordinary, instead of the strangeness of going to school this year. It's truly the high school seniors of last year, and the ones starting their senior year this year, that I feel the worst for. This year's college freshmen too (which would be last year's seniors I guess), because they aren't getting the "typical" college experience while they are supposed to be carefree and a little wild as they are on their own for the first time.

Well, I didn't have a bad time today.
My work didn't happen - Zoom crashed. Then went online for my evening class.
In the mean time I researched the historical character I'm writing about.
:') Today I learned that he was unknowingly tutored by an English spy, employed to gather info on his father and his father's coworker. Because that's a normal second job for your grammar teacher to have!

at my old college, zoom or the other online platform dint work either for their first day.
everyone was getting so mad at the school but it isn't their fault? technology isn't always easy esp with 20,000 students trying to access at once - just at our school, not to mention all the other schools. they are trying their best.
thats good you had some time to do research, mint!
