Social distancing has brought many changes to my life but none as great as school online. At first, when we went online for school we didn't think that it wouldn't last very long and we hadn't planned that far ahead. At first, learning online was great we could get up five minutes before class started, so we got to sleep longer, also if we finished all our assignments for a class we could leave early. Also during break, we were at home so we could do what we wanted during that time. However, after a while it began to get old, not seeing friends being at home the entire time, and just a day after day of the same thing, it began to get old. Although online learning had both its benefits and negatives it was necessary to slow the spread of covid and minimize the risk.
