  Testing Positive

  I remember the day I tested positive quite well. Two days before that, though, I drove to the local community college to get a test, because we got the news that my sister was exposed. I had experienced no symptoms, so the test was little more than a formality to me. But, on that night, my mom came into my room, telling me that I had tested positive. I was in the car with them getting my test and no one else that I had been in contact with tested positive or had any symptoms. Though it was likely a false positive, my plans for that weekend were canceled along with any that I had for the next two weeks. I was confined to my room wearing a medical N95 mask for 15 days.

  Rules, Procedures, and My Opinion of them.

  For this assignment, we are required to share our feelings about the rules and procedures that we have to follow, not only at school but in our everyday lives. Depending on how long after this is being written that you are reading it, you may have heard of some of the guidelines, such as wearing masks and staying 6 feet apart. Honestly, I have no problem with either of these rules, but the effects that they have ended up having on me have been quite substantial, I cringe slightly whenever I see a movie with many people sitting close together without masks, I feel odd leaving the house without one as well. This has become a new normal, and I am truly not sure how easy it will be to adjust once this is all over.
