Our second coming is upon us. The boy’s men’s soccer team’s season has come to an end and enough time has elapsed since then to allow us to physically return to school. I will be returning on Monday, although I’m not as excited as I was for the first return. This time around feels pretty mundane and uneventful. Although, it will be nice to see out the last couple of months as high school students not behind a laptop.
I feel very indifferent right now, but maybe that’s just I got some upsetting news today. My friends told me that the world is in fact round and not flat. At first, I refused to believe them, but once we went on a rocket and they showed me the Earth from space I believed them. Speaking of space, we will now be taking up all the recently empty space in the hallways and classrooms. What I’m most excited about is having a more concrete lunch schedule and having the gym right there. With online school, I found it more difficult to go to the gym as the full day behind a screen really drained me and it seemed like a hassle to get ready and drive there. With my return to school, the convenience of having the gym right there to embrace me after a hard day’s night will be much appreciated. One downside, which is an inadvertent upside, is waking up early again. Waking up early sucks, pardon my French, but it will make me more accountable for my sleep. Online school has seen my sleep schedule go right, left, upside down, and inverted.
I agree that waking up for school is very difficult especially considering I am not a morning person. That is the only upside of staying virtual. Hope you enjoy going back in person during the "Second coming" :)
ReplyDeleteBeing in school in person is also so much easier to focus! I don't know if you feel the same but I often find online I'm not really paying attention and just staring blankly at a wall. Either way I'm glad to not be the only student in school and it feels nice to finally have other kids back in the room with me! :)
ReplyDeleteI agree the second time going back to school was much less exciting; in fact, i didn't really want to go back. Before I hated zoom school, but over the past two months I have come to really enjoy it because I do it outside, in bed, or with friends and it has turned out pretty fun.
ReplyDeleteI completely agree...We were all so mad about going online for sports, but we made do with the circumstances and honestly made online school more fun. So yeah, I'm not loving being in person like I used to because it only drains me more and makes me wake up an hour earlier...
ReplyDeleteI see you used the little slash through thing. Nice. Yeah, when I found out the world wasn't flat, I was pretty bummed too. Like, if that's really true, then what's the point of having a Flat Earth Society? Was the membership fee just a waste?
ReplyDeleteIt's great that in person school has been working out for you, the same clearly isn't true for myself. I also find it funny that you've fallen for all that government propaganda and believe in the Earth.
