Hello my lovelies!! This week i had to make a letter so I would like to share my letter writing to you
guys. This letter is about what we did in lockdown for COVID-19. This letter goes to my future self.
I HOPE YOU ENJOY!!
Dear Future Elise,
I have just come out of lockdown for COVID-19/Coronavirus. COVID-19 is a disease that started in
one of the markets in Wuhan, China. It has come to almost every country in the whole world!! We
went into lockdown to keep the virus from spreading more and more over the countries. Some
countries have had HUGE outbreaks of COVID-19. We had to stay home for 7 weeks to slow down
the virus. We had to social distance and stay away from friends. It was tough but we did it in the
end.
Our prime minister, Jacinda Adern, told the whole country to stay home. There were alert levels
for the virus. The levels were Alert Level 1: nothing to worry about. Alert Level 2: social distance.
Alert Level 3: stay home, social distance, things are closed, schools shut. Alert Level 4: stay home,
social distance, everything is closed apart from essential service, only go out for walks and runs
and bikes and grocery stores, police on the road, schools shut. Jacinda Adern told the country to
nominate one person to go out to the grocery store. My mum was the person in my family who went
out to the store.
My mum is also an essential worker so she had to go to work during these tough times. OK. I am
going to get to what I did during lockdown. On the first night me and my family had dinner in front
of the TV and watched Interstellar. We enjoyed that. The next morning I slept in till 10:30!! It
was CRAZY!!!! I played with Lego and played on my Ipad. Later that day I walked my dog.
My favourite part of lockdown was when my dog peed on my dad's shoe!! That was so funny. I was
laughing for like 3 hours!!! My least favourite part of lockdown was having to do chores all the time.
I missed my friends so much during this time.
When week two of lockdown came along, we were eating dinner and talking about the disease. I
started crying because I didn't want to be away from my friends and I was scared that they were
going to get sick. That was really hard for me and my sisters. None of us wanted to be away from
our friends.
I went for scooters, walks, went to the beach with my dog, played on my Ipad, trimmed the grass
with scissors, made sheets that had things to on them for my neighbors, did chores, made my bed 1 time, cleaned my room, cried, got like 5 bruises from my sisters and scootered in the pitch black at 7:30 every night. I probably did more than that but i can't remember.
We had to do distance learning. We had to go onto the hub site and tapped the links to the Google Meets. We had Google Meets on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I enjoyed Google Meets because I could go to school in my slippers or under my blankets with my cats.
The people who were in my bubble were: Myself (Elise), My Mum (Tamara), My Dad (Stephen), My Sister (Cleo), My Other Sister (Corinne), My Dog (Trevor), My Cat (Coco) And My Other Cat (Chester).
Soon Jacinda Adern told the country that on Thursday 14 May level 2 would come around. On Monday 17 May we had to go back to school. I was anxious and was worrying the whole day. I was shaking and I did NOT want to leave my parents. My mum and dad were extremely upset. They didn't want me and my sisters back at school either. They were like, “why can't we stay in level 3 for one more week??”
Thank You So Much For Reading My Letter To Myself! I Hope I Never Have To Go Back In Lockdown Ever Again. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) .
-Sincerely Elise Esposito
