Peaceful right?

Dear FutureMe, While this quarantine has been going on I've been extremely bored and restless. I still keep in contact with my close friends and even hit up some old contacts on my phone to see what's been happening with them. I’ve made a lot of plans for what I'm going to do after quarantine, most involve hanging out with my friends going to the beach, and continuing to improve my skill set. While in quarantine I’ve revisited multiple childhood cartoons and books. My main worry during this quarantine is that it would be extended or we would all be hung back a year. I’ve also worried about my family, who are up north. When i first heard that school was going to be online i was angry because i thought all my teachers were just going to screw me work, but im glad to have been wrong about that cause so far online school has been extremely easier than regular school, but i just don’t like computers, and several times i felt like throwing the one i'm using due to it deleting work i did or just not doing what i wanted it to. I hope that by the time everyone is out and back in school people start washing their hands. By the time virtual school ends i would have a 6 pack that i’ve gotten during quarantine. I'm on the verge of just shaving all my hair off because I don't like it being long. If i want to remember anything about this in the future i want to remember how much easier it was to get stuff done to the reduced number of distractions. Even though I spent a lot of my time on my phone watching T.V. which I don't regret but don't necessarily like, I feel I spent an equal amount of time doing productive things either improving physically, and sometimes on rare occasions even learning something. I think in the future people will pay greater attention to sanitation, and people will be trying to go out and party all the time due to the time they lost by being in quarantine for two months. I hope that all those who got unemployed can find jobs, for it was only by luck that my parents still had jobs compared to the countless others who lost theirs.
