How have I been? Honestly, I don’t know, I would say overall good but to keep it one hunnit I hate everything that’s going on. I miss living on my own, I miss going to class every day, the parties, the people, the gym, and everything else that use to seem normal. I don’t see anyone being okay with sitting inside day after day after day, especially at our age where all we want to do is socialize with other people. Its funny how we use to question the fact that everyone in this generation is so stuck to their phones, or tablets and never can hold a conversation. Well now this is all we can do, just sit inside all day doing nothing at all, weather you’re spending your time playing video games, taking a walk, or “reading”, like anyone actually does that. I know everyone reading this right now wishes they were still dragging themselves out of bed to make it to this 8 am class. Because I don’t about y’all, but this was the only class I actually enjoyed going to.
Other then the same thing everyone else is saying or thinking, I’m still going to work every day… Yes, I know “what do you mean you’re still working!?”. I’m asking myself this question everyday while I’m starring into this stupid salad case and talking to a whole 5 people within a 6-hour day. If it was up to me, I would be sitting on my ass collecting unemployment, but my boss for some odd reason won’t close our stores. I know I shouldn’t be complaining and be thankful because others don’t have any source of income at the moment but going to work every day to stand around and do nothing, when I could be spending my time sleeping while getting paid the same amount, or more is annoying.
I hope all you guys and yall family is healthy though fr, this virus aint no joke, and that’s coming from someone who thinks everything is a conspiracy. But I hope everyone is doing okay, especially mentally because we all know isolation can drive you insane, just know it’s driving me a little crazy as well.

It’s nice to hear your authentic voice again, Jaren, after these weeks away. A raw and real take, no doubt.
I hope you can stay strong as the isolation tries to wear you down.
Great pic, too. It captures very well the isolation you describe.

“I miss living on my own, I miss going to class every day, the parties, the people, the gym, and everything else that use to seem normal” I really like this because I can relate to it being home is nice and all, but rather be at college where I can chill with my friend, working out, and playing soccer.

This really was the only 8am class I could get to almost on time everyday. This entire lock-down and quarantine thing is crazy and making me feel like I lack more social skills than ever.

Love the part about rather waking up for this 8am. This class has to be my favorite too, there was nothing better than coming to class and just having a good discussion about the topics we wrote about. I know it’s crazy that you’re still working but hey man it’s better than nothing, stay safe bro
