Covid has brought many problems in our everyday life that have impacted our regular routine from day to day. Students are going into school with more stress than ever. Rather than paying attention in class, students are worrying more about not being able to breathe rather than learning important information that is being taught. Most teachers are not giving breaks to students in class, and with long periods for each class it can be very stressful for students. Stressing over too much work and staying safe at the same time is emotionally draining. People everywhere are struggling going to work everyday while having a mask over their face. The masks are a constant reminder that life isn’t normal anymore. Even activities outside of work are impossible to do when wearing masks such as sports, activities, hanging out with friends and/or family. It is terrible for a person and their well being. 

At schools and work areas, people aren’t interacting with each other anymore because of the COVID protocol. People cannot talk to their colleagues as much as they used to because of social distancing and the masks. When wearing a mask people don’t see emotions when talking to someone. It’s hard when sometimes that is what some people look forward to in their days, a smile on someone’s face. When it comes to work or other activities, people want the masks gone. Masks have been tolerated for over a year now and we’re getting sick of them. The constricting feeling they provide is getting tiring and we don’t want to have to struggle to breathe any more.
