My thoughts:
Honestly, when I was sitting in my school's auditorium, playing a piece on my cello with my fellow orchestra members and we heard the announcement saying school would be off, I wouldn't ever have thought we'd be staying home for this long. It's been more than 13 weeks because I started this series almost a month after quarantine began! Luckily I've been spending lots of time active and with friends this past week. I've been really into playing 'Stop it, Slender', 'Free the Facility' and 'Meep City' with my friends on Roblox. If any of you are reading this and also play roblox, send me a friend request @19Colonials19! Our neighborhood pool also opened this past Monday, so I've been going just about every day. Also, if you've subscribed to my YouTube channel {totally sponsored by...myself :)}, Star2ThePowerOf100, I'm going to be uploading more YouTube videos {probably of mostly Roblox} now that I finally have a screen recorder! Make sure to pop by there whenever you can, I'm hoping this new recording programme actually works after the failure of the last one. Have a great week everyone, and make sure to tell me any vacation plans you've made this Summer!
