My Life Before Covid

Before Covid, I was in the middle of the seventh grade. It was going pretty well considering it was the middle of the year and nothing much happened then. I wish I had known then what was about to happen because I never got to go out one last time with my friends or go to sports practice without worrying about being distanced from each other. I had gotten into the routine of normal days and repeating the same schedule 24/7, and wanted a little something to change it or make life a little more interesting, this is not what I meant at all. I remember talking with my friends every day and seeing them at school, but now we can't. Calling and texting are great and all, but it isn't the same. Not even close. Hopefully, we can go back to the way it was before Covid sooner rather than later.
