https://padlet.com/natalierico/yvdxhltby13y741y Today is April 22, 2020 and the total amount of cases and deaths in the United States as of today are over 751,000 cases and 45,000 deaths. It is funny how I just said really big numbers of cases and deaths yet people still go out, as a middle school student and 12 year old girl that is about to turn 13, I really want this to end. I want to see my friends, teachers, family, and in general just, people. I am tired of seeing the same people everyday no offense to my family members. I want to be able to see more family for example cousins, aunts, uncles, anyone. I hope that everyone is staying safe during this time because I know there has been a lot of deaths and yet people are still going out I hope people that are still going outside realize what they are doing is really bad because not only are they being very selfish but they are causing people to get sick and some might not survive. When you go out to go grocery shopping which is mostly the only reason you should go out for and any other thing you really need to go out for but if it is not important then don't go out, you should wear masks and maybe gloves is smart to keep yourself and others safe. If you know anyone that is still going out please let them know that they need to stay home. Every single time I go out I see more and more people out, the only time I didn't see much people was when I drove less outside so that is probably because we drove less. In my dads home I am living with 5 other people, 6 including myself. One father that is still working during this time, one stepmother that takes care of 4 children while her husband is at work, also cleans and cooks, and 4 children. In my moms home there are 3 people living there, 4 including myself. One mother who still works during this time and does everything herself being a single mother and 3 children. I have hope that this will end soon, and so should you but we need to work together to end this. en-us 2020-04-09 17:36:23 UTC 2023-12-28 12:42:30 UTC hello@padlet.com natalierico https://padlet.com/natalierico/yvdxhltby13y741y/wish/507568037 2020-04-15 01:46:10 UTC https://padlet.com/natalierico/yvdxhltby13y741y/wish/507568037 natalierico https://padlet.com/natalierico/yvdxhltby13y741y/wish/507600556 This is the view from my patio, I think it is very pretty and meaningful because I have lived here for about 5 years. The tree on the left is very special because when we were younger, me and my siblings would always pick cherries from there and that is a memory I will never forget. I believe I chose to take a picture of the outside because we can't go outside, it gets hard not being able to go to out because you need fresh air from outside, you need to go out you can't stay inside forever and we might have to do that if people don't start listening.]]> 2020-04-15 02:22:13 UTC https://padlet.com/natalierico/yvdxhltby13y741y/wish/507600556 natalierico https://padlet.com/natalierico/yvdxhltby13y741y/wish/507600980 I took this photo because the games that are shown are the games we have mostly been playing during this time, the games that are shown in this photo are dominoes, cards, and uno flip, I believe the one we use the most are the cards. These games are gonna be special from now on because it is what we used to keep busy during this epidemic and everything everyone does during this epidemic is now history because one day in the future people are going to probably read or learn about the coronavirus and probably what we did during it.]]> 2020-04-15 02:22:44 UTC https://padlet.com/natalierico/yvdxhltby13y741y/wish/507600980 natalierico https://padlet.com/natalierico/yvdxhltby13y741y/wish/507601519 I took this picture because it is a mask, what everyone has to use now when they go out, this is the mask that my family is using, we all have our own but this is how they look. My mom has a different one but this is what me and my siblings are using, my mom has ordered more masks but they are different than these, we are wearing these for now because it is the only masks we have. I hope everyone is able to be wearing masks or something to keep them safe when they go out during this time, I do not know how long you can reuse masks but I do not think its long so I hope everyone has enough to keep safe, if you do not have masks you can make them yourself or use a different thing but it has to not be able to feel your breath when you blow. ]]> 2020-04-15 02:23:24 UTC https://padlet.com/natalierico/yvdxhltby13y741y/wish/507601519 natalierico https://padlet.com/natalierico/yvdxhltby13y741y/wish/507601868 I took this picture because our paper towel holder or whatever it is called was empty for about 2-3 weeks. I thought it was funny to add this because I remember Ms.Ava said that hers was empty too but then a family member brought them some and the next day after I took this picture we went grocery shopping at target and we were lucky enough to get the chance to buy more because there was only a little bit left when we got there. I just think it is crazy how in a few months all of this can happen.]]> 2020-04-15 02:23:50 UTC https://padlet.com/natalierico/yvdxhltby13y741y/wish/507601868 natalierico https://padlet.com/natalierico/yvdxhltby13y741y/wish/509675562 This picture was taken when me and my mom went to target earlier this week. When we were on our way I already had planned what type of pictures I was going to take, one of my ideas were taking pictures of the empty shelves because I knew there would be some, this picture was taken in the toilet paper section. There was a few left but me and my mom did not take any because we didn't need it and we knew other people needed it more than we did and now is not the time to be selfish with this virus going around and people are over packing on things.]]> 2020-04-16 01:15:18 UTC https://padlet.com/natalierico/yvdxhltby13y741y/wish/509675562 natalierico https://padlet.com/natalierico/yvdxhltby13y741y/wish/509686886 This is the other photo I got from google, I believe I chose this photo because it shows how people risk there lives to help other people that may or may not have the virus. In this photo it shows three people with a lot of gear on trying to help the person sitting in the background, I think the people that are choosing to help during this time have a very kind heart because they do not have to they can easily stay home and stay safe but they are willing to help people in need.]]> 2020-04-16 01:26:21 UTC https://padlet.com/natalierico/yvdxhltby13y741y/wish/509686886 natalierico https://padlet.com/natalierico/yvdxhltby13y741y/wish/509687276 This is a picture I got from google, I think I chose this picture because people can't go to other places without being tested and that means people can't be trusted because what if they had Covid-19 but chose to put other people in danger. Also I notice the two people in the back getting out of the bus aren't wearing masks and it looks like the people that are getting out of the bus and the guy that is being tested are traveling and especially traveling during this time is very dangerous so I think they should at least wear a mask so they don't catch the virus. ]]> 2020-04-16 01:26:41 UTC https://padlet.com/natalierico/yvdxhltby13y741y/wish/509687276
