One day, not very long ago, the news began talking about how the coronavirus was now spreading in America. More specifically to us, the bay area! Not long after, the Governor of California placed us on a shelter-in-place.

Uhhh.. what does shelter-in-place mean?

If you were also wondering about this don't feel alone because I was too! Shelter-in-place means to seek safety in the building that one already occupies. A simpler way of saying it is no more leaving your house for unnecessary reasons. Which, yes, that also means no school, movies, restaurants, etc.!

Oh, well that's no fun! What is this horrible coronavirus anyways?

Well, let's read the next page and find out together!
