I remember first hearing about virtual school, and to 5th grade me It sounded like heaven. Little did I know that would be far from the truth. Although I thought I was saying goodbye for a week, I would really be saying goodbye for the next 2 years. When virtual school first started countless issues needed to be ironed out. Firstly, work wasn’t getting to students and this problem would end up with me 3 weeks behind on school work. Neatly, Zoom “bombing” would be a huge issue with almost every class having grown men join. This would honestly help stop boredom, and shake the repitienviness of each day. Another large issue is the disconnect in learning. Despite seeing and hearing the teacher, what they were explaining seemingly always escaped me. Math, Science, English, and History all harder than they needed to be. Additionally the challenge of distractions proved realer than ever. No deans to stop you from having “internet issues” to miss a class or two. Or just opening up another tab of something far more interesting. In conclusion, my experience with virtual school has been far from what I initially envisioned. The challenges of delayed assignments, Zoom bombing, the disconnect in learning, and the struggle to resist distractions have made this journey quite arduous. However, I recognize the importance of resilience and adaptability. By persevering through these obstacles, I aim to make the most out of this unconventional learning experience, grow as a student, and develop valuable skills that will serve me well in the future.

Although short this is something I found with the same prompt from 2020 written by my sister Rocky.
At first, the pandemic and quarantine were tough, but I made it work. I had to adjust to a new way of life with everyone working and studying from home. The vaccine roll-out has given me hope and I’m looking forward to things returning to some sense of normalcy.

Drifting was a Motorsport I was obsessed with during Covid and when I got a chance to drive in 2021 I ran with it! This photo was taken at my 3rd event that was in Pensacola. It’s been so much fun progressing as a driver.

The sequel to Borat came out during Covid and was amazing. It equally made fun of people who didn’t believe in Covid and people who might have taken it too far.

Masks were a major source of contention, especially when mandates for them were put in place. Many people expressed them being infliction on their freedom.

I dont really remember why we went but this would be my first exposure to drifting, something I would dedicate the next 3 years of my life to(and maybe more). I was hooked.

Right after covid hit cell companies would be gain to build 5g towers. What many people didn’t understand is that would just be the 5 generation of something we had for years. It made head lines when a woman burned a tower.

Right when we moved to Alabama (and covid died down a little) a huge hurricane swept through Alabama. This hit right after my first week of coming back to school in person and would make virtual school a month longer.

I remember reading this head line and having many people around me start to grow worried or anxious, But at this point I still couldn’t see how 200 could mean so much.

I remember seeing the first Stay-At-Home Orders go into effect and being in shock over how dystopian it seemed. Up to this point the virus was something just scaring the people around me, but when these got issued it became very real.
