I remember sitting in the down under of the university center, doing homework in the booths when I got the email that said the university would extending our spring break by one week and they recommended everyone move out of the dorms. A day before I got that email I was at a Chelsea Cutler concert. It was surreal to go to a concert 24 hours before my life changed forever. I remember driving to the concert with my friends Rayna and Alyssa, talking about how my hometown, Fond du Lac Wisconsin, had seven cases of COVID-19. My dad messaged me and told me I probably shouldn\u2019t go to the concert but there was nothing stopping me from getting there early so I could be as close as possible. I will never take for granted getting to see my favorite artist a day before the world stopped. This was my third time seeing her. The first time I saw her was at Summerfest with Quinn XCII and the second time I drove to Chicago and met her at an iheart radio interview.
