A Pandemic That Has Changed The Grounds I Walk On

Something that is not only affecting me, but so many others.

A Pandemic That Has Changed The Grounds I Walk On

No school, nowhere to go, everything is closing, faster than we can salvage and basically I am trapped. Yeah being at home is not that bad. But actually, sometimes it can be. School was an escape from getting out of my bed and actually doing something productive at times. Sports is a major role in my life, but it is being taken from me and so many others. I can only imagine what the seniors are feeling right now and everybody else. Not only that, I do not get the in-school learning experiences, nor do I get to see my friends right now. Nor do I think will for awhile.

I have always stayed in a lot of the time. And the weird thing is, I would have never imagined not being allowed to go anywhere. And here I am stuck at home. Not allowed to go out. Not even out to ride around for a little while. I see friends on social media hanging around with each other still and I just only hope that we are not over reacting or under reacting.

Things are being taken from the shelves of every store you can think of. This is making it impossible to even provide for those who actually need things for their home. And I feel bad. I feel terrible.

There are too many things on social media that people are believing, because that is the first thing they see. Who would have thought staying in could cause so much pain though? Not only for myself, but for everybody around the world.

Those at work, what about them? They cannot stay cooped up inside, they have to help. They are tired, more than tired. Stressed and want to be able to figure things out. But we can only hope everything settles down quicker than the virus spreads.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
