Write an essay about your corona experience (400 words)

Corona has kept me at home more than I would have liked to. Naturally, I am a stay-at-home type of person, but plenty of times throughout the year I have wanted to go out in the city and hang out with friends and family. I know that I can't do these things though because it puts their safety, and mine, at risk of exposure. I've come to terms with this reality and it doesn't bother me as much anymore.
One difficult thing though is virtual learning. At first, I thought not being able to go to school would be a positive thing. Little did I know, virtual learning only made things slightly worse. Teachers are not being very lenient with students as they want students to be with them. I've failed classes worse than ever, lost touch with friends, but on the flip side, my mental health has never been better. School has been one of the reasons my mental health suffered throughout the past 4-5 years. It made me realize a lot about myself, as all I can do at home is watch Netflix or be alone with my thoughts.
In light of Corona, it has shown how people in my country, America, have taken the culture of individualism to an extreme. No one has a sense of community or “helping out the neighbor”. If it doesn't affect you and your loved ones, apparently no one else cares. People won't listen to simple orders of staying at home unless absolutely necessary and to wear a mask if you do go out. Wearing a mask protects people from you, so that you don't spread bodily fluids like saliva, which Corona spreads through, not the other way around.
In conclusion, it's been one long ride with Corona. With vaccines planning to be distributed amongst the world and places like school starting to open back up, let's see what 2021 has in store for us.

Answer:

I'm now at home every day and it really is affecting me socially. Not being able to speak to friends and see people I see on a regular basis is hard for me. Also, now that school is closed for the rest of the year it has really had an effect on my school life. I am not used to being at home all the time and working on the computer. I'm usually in a classroom surrounded by my peers. However, I am human so I will learn to adapt, but for now it is hard. It has affected me personally in the social and educational aspect, but I know around the city of Detroit it's affecting others as well. In Detroit, which is one of the cities around the country hit hard by the virus, the pandemic has also affected the youth. Youth are now forced to stay home instead of going to school and spending time with friends. Most kids need to be outside and with people to release their energy and socialize. Now this cannot happen, because the virus has affected us so much. One thing we also see happening is food insecurities and social distancing. Due to what is happening in the world, people are very much afraid and cautious about food supply and interactions with people. People are afraid and are told to stay inside, so we stock up supplies that will last them about a month. Usually people get stuff that we will last them about two weeks, but now we need to stay home as much as we can.With social distancing, we now separate ourselves from other parts of society. This has made me feel very much disconnected from my friends. Humans are made to be out and about and socialize with beings on Earth. These unfortunate events have led many people to be disconnected from society. This has allowed my mind to go to the dark side, where my fears come out. My main fear is “How long will my life be on pause?” I’m afraid of how long I will be stuck in the house and can’t see my friends. Will it be a couple more weeks or will it be a couple months?

p.s this is random but i still agree with this essay
