My Life Like Before The Pandemic
Before Covid-19 my life was very busy not just because of school but also because of the extracurricular activities I attended. One of these activities was air cadets. Air cadets was by far my most time-consuming extracurricular activity. I had to attend at least twice a week for 3 hours each time.
Despite this, it was the most beneficial to me because it helped me develop leadership skills and will eventually help me get my pilot's license. Another activity that I do is sailing. Over the last 2 years, I have taken sailing lessons and have almost achieved my sailing license. It was fun being out on the open seas where we can practice our skills.

My Life in the past year?
Over the past year with COVID, I can safely say that every day was a bore. With the continuous lockdowns and online school, there was never a moment to get some fresh air. Even though that was the case it was still pretty fun every day.
Ok, maybe I have not been able to go outside and find interesting places outdoors but I have found a lot of interesting places online. Each online place adds its own unique presence to our wonderful and amazing internet. At the end of the day, I would say that my life was interesting but also boring over the past year.

What I'm hopeful for in the future
For the future, I hope to use the researching skill I learned and honed over the last year to my full advantage. For the future, I also hope that I will be able to get my grades up with a better quality of research that I put into my writing and into a good university of my choice.
