My Time in Quartine

Hello my name is Alexnder and I’m 7th grade.

I would like to tell you about my time in quarantine during the Corona Virus outbreak.

In the morning. when we stopped going to school, I found myself at home with too much free time.

I didn’t know what to do. I didn’t have any plan. I just stayed at home, wandering around. Sometimes I played video games. I called my friend and watched TV. Watching TV made me nervous because of all the news about the Corona Virus and the numbers of people who got sick.

When I became really nervous because of the news, I wanted to eat something tasty. So I went to the kitchen and opened the fridge to see what is in it. These were the first two weeks. We didn’t study. We didn’t know what to do. My parents kept telling me to wash my hands. They didn’t allow me to bring friends home.

After two weeks of doing nothing we started to study online. This was a week before Passover holiday. After two weeks of holiday we went back to study online. We started using the new app of Zoom. When you use Zoom you can see your friends and teacher on the screen. This Zoom thing was very strange. I am not used to be in contact with friends, teachers, family on screen.

‘

I started getting used to the Corona  Virus time.

School online starts at 10 AM so I get up at about 8 AM and get ready. We have homework and and all lessons are on Zoom. It is strange and I can’t get used to it.

Online school ends at about 3 o’clock. In the afternoon I have to do my homework.

In this picture you can see where I study and do my homework. This is my new reality. I am stuck there in front of my computer when I have to study, when I want to “meet” friends or do my homework.

In the afternoon, when I have free time, I play computer games. This is the time when I forget for a moment that I am sitting in front of the computer screen, and I enter into a virtual

reality. I feel that i am in another place and I enjoy the adventures of the game.

I do judo regularly. In my quarantine time, when we can’t meet at the club, we practice 3 times a week. My coach gave us a list of instructions how to exercise. We have to exercise three times a week. When I need to exercise, I go out and workout according to my couch’s instructions.

I really hope that we will soon be able to go back to our normal life. I miss meeting my friends, going to the movies with my sister as we used to do once a week before Corona.

Thank you for reading my book.

I HOPE TO SEE YOU SOON 🙂
