Long isolation
Broken up by crashing waves
Future lies ahead
Endless days at home
Trapped in the dusty corners
The drone of the fan

"The first few times I was introduced to the sport disc golf, I was ready to spend the rest of my life playing and striving to become better at it. The feeling I have when I drive the disc off the tee-pad, launching it down the fairway and into the basket is one of those particular highs that everyone in the sport craves. Whether it’s a beautiful drive that sails down the fairway and parks you next to the basket or that super smooth, long distanced putt that you just nailed. Those “feel good” feelings bring so much happiness."
"Computer screens seem to dominate our lives these days. Technology was prevalent for many prior to COVID, but if not, chances are there has been a newfound reliance on it. That is, if you’re lucky enough. Estimates report more than nine million people across the nation do not have access to a computer and internet services, which makes it nearly impossible to complete assignments."
Hello Everyone! We are so, excited to share our first giveaway.
"Online learning has been very stressful and hard to handle for the younger generation today because there is no social contact between people in the zoom classrooms and there is a lack of motivation. If there’s no motivation, no work will get done. If there’s no kind of social contact, kids are going to go crazy. The younger generation is not supposed to be in all the time they are supposed to be out, getting ready to spread their wings. Instead, COVID hits and everything goes from in person to online schooling. "
