This quarantine experience has been interesting to deal with. Ever since the stay at home order was issued, I haven't been doing much at home. While I still have school and a few other stuff, I can't do much. I was looking forward to swim season to start because, well I love swimming. I was able to go to practice for about a month until the school closed. We were only able to play a few games against ourselves and had one home game. I was pretty bummed that we didn't have an away game, but it's better than getting exposed to the virus. Am I disappointed that the swim season ended? Yes. If I was a senior I would be pretty bummed out about that, but since I'm not, then hopefully maybe next year. Going back to staying at home all I've been doing is doing schoolwork, chores, and some games. Fun right. I would try to go outside, but I'm not sure if I want to. But there was something that I needed to do and that was to study for my AP exams. Since this year's AP exams were going to be online and were an open note, I didn't know how I was supposed to study. About a month before the exam I was questioning how I would study, but with some help with my teachers, I was able to find a way until the day of the exam. I was scared because I felt like I wasn't ready and also scared that my score wouldn't be submitted and I'd have to take it again in June. But to my surprise, I feel like I did fine (not the best, but good enough for me). Honestly, nothing, as changed for me since even before the stay at home order, was issued I was already inside. However, I enjoyed the feeling that I was able to go somewhere and that I wasn't forced to stay home 24/7. I know that things won't go back to normal right away (even with the vaccine) and everyone's lives are going to be effective, but we will all be waiting that all of this will be over.
