  Dreams Six Room Poem

  This is from an assignment in Paula Flynn's 5th grade class at Franklin Elementary School, in Santa Monica, CA. Hugs, relief, and happiness. Sunlight shining through trees at all angles. Laughter and chatter, both mushed together to create a beautiful moment. The wonderful aroma of food, once more able to be shared. Hope, joy, and love. Was the coronavirus caused for a reason?

  Dreaming Again

  Ms. Lea Salonga launched a campaign, #LSdreamagain regarding the things we miss or dreams we crave while on lockdown. One of the things I miss is the brush of the wind on my face. Even before the pandemic, I am what you call a treehugger, so I crave hugs. Hugging my niece and nephew is one of the things I am looking forward to after this "period". Savouring the simple pleasures of life.

  Graduating during a pandemic - Krystal Rodrigues (Suffolk University)

  Like most kids, I had dreamed of the day I would walk across the stage to receive my diploma, but due to COVID-19, the Class of 2020 missed out on that moment. I graduated from high school this year and I experienced my final year with a global pandemic. The uncertainty of this pandemic led to the cancelation of our graduation. My peers and I had to say our goodbyes online and our school made a video for our graduation where they called out all our names. However, we would’ve felt happier to have experienced a normal senior year.

  Dreams in Quarantine

  I normally don't remember my dreams, but since quarantine has started I've either been having weird dreams or have just not been sleeping well at all. After speaking with friends and family to see if they have experienced something similar, it seems to be across the board that everyone's sleep patterns have changed. In doing some research, apparently it's enough of a noticeable impact that scientists are investigating what is happening.
