I (like the rest of the world) am feeling a little bit odd during this whole...global pandemic thing, naturally. And by odd I mean stir-crazy, anxious, frazzled, and restless. I know that I am incredibly lucky. I have the privilege to stay at home, my parents have the means to provide the necessities that are needed to survive this time, and my education can continue online. But it's still really freaking ODD. I've been an early bird my entire life, but during my quarantine I've been waking up at 9:30 am or later. I've been taking walks with my family daily when I usually only see them all at the same time two times a week tops. My usually bare nails have been colorfully painted since day one of this entire thing. I expected 2020 to be this major year of growth and blooming and change, but right now it just feels like a whole lot of staying at home and spinning in my seat. And there's probably lesson to be learned in all of this. Some grand revaluation to be had about how family is the only thing that matters, and how people's constant hunger for productivity (and by people I mean me) is distracting them from really enjoying the little simple things in life. But right now I'm just feeling odd. And maybe that's alright.I (like the rest of the world) am feeling a little bit odd during this whole...global pandemic thing, naturally.
