New Writing Prompt: "We can shoot rockets into space, but we can't cure anger or discontent." John Steinbeck

Which do you feel Americans should invest more in: space travel or mental health? Explain your choice. Be clear about WHY you feel the way you do. Use support from your personal knowledge or things you've read or seen.

I say they should invest in more space, travel, and mental health because when you travel its relaxing for most people. When I went to Washington D.C., it was so relaxing and I love going on vacations. Also we should invest in mental health because lots of people suffer from it everyday and how would you fell if you were affected by it every single day? I think we should invest in more cures for health issues like cancer or the Coronavirus. 

What is the first thing you are going to do when the stay-home order is lifted?

The first thing I am going to do when this order is lifted is tough to figure out. The reason I think this is because there is so much I want to do after this is lifted. I mainly want to visit my family that I haven't seen in a while. I also want to go shopping with my mom what I know will happen because she wants to also go. Even though I never liked shopping, I need to go to get new clothes. Also I want to go to the Quad Cites and go to the ISLE Capri with my family. 

During this time we are quarantined I have been bored. I have been doing my work in the morning. Then I join Zoom calls with my friends and teachers. I want to go back to school already. I know this Covid-19 is a bad thing but i want to see my friends. I also want to see my teachers before I go on to High School. At first I liked when school was cancelled for a while but I don't like doing E-learning.
