Matteo Scotto 4/30 The Patricians (from Patres, meaning Fathers) were wealthy landowners with most of the power. They inherited not only the social status, but also the authority.

But at the same time, I feel like I deserve some slack because I already had so much going in my life before we had to go "digital". My mom and I were going through the process of diagnosing if I have ADHD or not. I also had trouble with my angry brother. I guess "socially" it's gotten better, but I think that's because everyone is focused on the pandemic, including me. Online school has been confusing and I wish we got brand new assignments instead of continuing the work we had before. I'm still not sure what's going to happen with school and that makes question if this is all worth it. I'm just trying to say that I'm s...
