Echo: What will you do after the stay-at-home order is lifted?
“The one thing that I want to do is have my birthday party, because literally a week before my birthday they called quarantine. So, after all of this is over, I’m going to throw a party with my friends. No presents.
Echo: What will you keep doing after quarantine that you didn’t do before it?
“I don’t think I really need that much TV time, because like I’ve recently been into baking, and it’s a lot of fun. I think I want to keep annoying my cat, because when I’m home during quarantine he keeps on meowing and meowing, and it gets really annoying, and then I go up to his face and I say, ‘Meow, meow, meow, meow.’
“And he’s like, “What?” So it’s like, “How do you like it, cat?” And it’s funny, so I want to keep on doing that.
