              I might have no school for the rest of the year because of the corona virus. We work online from home, and all of the parks near my community are closed. The Wal-Mart has no food in it, even though where we live, the corona virus is not there!😣

                    Today is day 5 of "Coronavirus Homeschooling" for me. If your school is out then you probably know what I'm talking about. Honestly I kinda just wish I could be in school right now! Also, today was supposed to be day 1 of my performance that (thank goodness) got canceled because of COVID-19 concerns, but still.
