School got cancelled early because of panic more or less. I’m not a medical professional or anything, but this virus is no more deadly than the flu. But to move on, I work for the school I go to and they won’t let student workers work, even those of us who aren’t travelling. To say I’ve been frustrated and anxious is an understatement. A lot of things feel like they don’t make sense and I also fear how online classes will go especially in classes that rely heavily on participation. 

I did get to go to the zoo with friends and met up with my brother at a pretty neat market. It was nice to be out of the house. I don’t really know what to write about. I can’t really see my friends right now and being home all the time isn’t the best. Even though I’m introverted, I still like to see the people I consider friends. I have an exam in religion due, and then not really anything until online classes start. All of this is just incredibly weird. It’s like a real version of the Plague Inc. game. I just wonder if we’re taking the right steps, or if we’re freaking out over something that has killed less people than the common flu. I just- I can’t help be a little bitter. I know, “think about the elderly or the people with compromised immune systems” but like, it this any different from any other cold/flu season for them? Like yes, I’m glad people are washing their hands more and trying to be healthier, but the panic buying and fear mongering is just ridiculous.
