Keep running. That’s all I tell myself. Watch out. That’s all I keep thinking. Keep your family close. That’s all I wish for. People screeching, babies bawling, I sprinted past my school and took cover by a nearby car. I recall how just last week I baked chocolate chip cookies. It’s unfeasible to think about how the world’s changed. How did this virus even start? Who will stop it? Stop over-thinking. I glance to my left and see my mother crouching beneath a broken advertisement. I gaze at an…

My experience as a running start student wasn’t as I had expected it to be. When I was at the college I was constantly being made fun of for being younger than everyone else. You don’t have as much friends as you would expect. Also, the friends you used to have are no longer there. I felt invisible, as if I was unwanted. My classroom experiences were unbelievable.

The man yelled again, I got in my stance and we all stood there, waiting. The wait is always awful, it’s intense. I could feel the butterflies building up.…
