*.+ {Normal School!} ~ Day 5 ~ FINALLY! I now have gone somewhere other than home :) +.*

Bonjour Beautiful Tim~Tamz,

Sorry for my 2-week absence, I forgot to post one week and wasn't feeling well the other! Apart from that how are you all? I do hope you and your families are feeling ok and aren't so paranoid anymore. I've been recently considering what life will be like after lockdown, and let me tell you I bet a lot more people are more aware of sicknesses.

All kids on Monday the 17th of May went back to school! And let me tell you that I really missed school, and I don't normally say that... {Sorry Teachers, it's not you!} And I felt really happy to be able to go somewhere other than my mother's home and my father's. But I was also happy to see my friends in person again because seeing them on calls just isn't the same.

If I was to give a reflection of my time in lockdown, I'd call it eventful. At the start, I was kind of panicking due to what the other countries like America have dealt with Covid-19. But progressively I became a bit more calmer and I noticed that throughout lockdown was a time to actually see who's a good president {or prime minister} and who isn't. And it's pretty clear that NZ is blessed with our lovely President.

Towards the end of lockdown however I really was going insane, because humans need to socialize and communicate with each other and this lockdown period and strange time have proven that pretty clearly. But It's also made me express my thoughts and write them down so I can get things off my shoulders, and I do truly recommend that because it does work!

I also learned some new things in lockdown, like what a Fractal is {a closed shape with an infinite perimeter} and a technique for Multiplying and Dividing Fractions. And It's quite easy! Basically, you take the question {1/13 x 4/7} and do this technique! 1x13 and 4x7 = 13 and 28 = 13/28! And that's how you do it!

In words, it's basically you grab the fraction and turn it into a multiplication question and then add the two answers together. and for division, it's an extra step. Take the same question and flip the easiest fraction around and do the same technique. You get the same answer :)

I do hope you find that technique interesting and what I've said inspiring in some way! I do hope you are all safe and happy and I'll see you in the next blog!

Toodles!~ <3

{P.S - If you are feeling down, or in need to speak up about mental health or physical health but too scared to tell somebody, please reach out for help. You're not alone during these hard times and it'll be ok.}
