Quarantine

  1. Xbox has intruded my daily routine.
  2. Stress creeps in as I find myself catching up on work.
  3. Netflix serves as a constant distraction.
  4. Playing basketball with my brothers feeds my competitive spirit.
  5. Working out does the same as I imagine a future of success.
  6. Eating is a bit more frequent than normal.

What I Miss About My Life

  1. Being at the beach is the most freeing feeling of the summer.
  2. To eat out at a restaurant right now would cure my sadness.
  3. If not for COVID-19, I would be playing spring football.
  4. I ache to see the shores of Newport.
  5. The Cliff Walk and all its beauty seems to be calling out to me.
