*.+ {SCHOOL@HOME} ~ Day idek anymore ~ How am I keeping myself from going insane... *.+

Kia Ora Beautiful Tim~Tamz,

Guess what! I haven't ripped down the walls of my bedroom just yet! I know right... insane. All jokes aside how have you all been? Did you go and do the stand at dawn event on ANZAC day? I did and it was very humble, remembering those who fought for us. Those who lost their lives to help ours, and it's important to not forget those who did that.

I have some new things to showcase to you all! Including a video of what I've been doing while school is out!~ But firstly, I'll showcase the school work. So on the menu this week we have 'Guess the Emoji',

Guess the emoji! I have a task for you all! try to guess what the meaning is using the emojis as a guide! I might add more but I would like to see how it goes with what I have. So why not give it a try? :)

How did you go on that? Was it enough? Well, I have another thing to show you guys! In my spare time, I've been working on a few things.  {Lost the footage so hopefully, I'll have a blog post dedicated to it soon!~}

Please do take this time to reflect on who you are and take the time to care about yourself. We are all in a weird place and time in the world right now, but let's all be thankful that we're alive and we are surrounded by the support! If you feel like you need someone to talk to, I'm always here and so are others. It's important to make sure everyone feels ok during these rough times. Maybe telling your parents you love them can help their day! Or calling your grandparents' {or parents if you are an adult} and seeing how they're doing.
I hope you all are doing well and are safe! Toodles!~

*.+ {SCHOOL@HOME} ~ Day ?? ~ I haven't seen a single car go past in 3 days... +.*

Bonjour Beautiful Tim~Tamz,

It's been a while since I have been somewhere other than both of my parents home {Don't worry my parents are allowed to see both me and my sister} or let alone a single car go past.
This whole quarantine period of our lives sure has all of us in our thoughts. I spent a good hour ~ 2 hours writing down my thoughts and I realized how much is on my mind. I realized that I need to clear the bad things out of my life because most of my thought were past events that still to this day have a mental effect on me.
If you are feeling stressed or anything else that is making you not be yourself. Then I truly recommend you open a notebook or a document and write down your thoughts, maybe dedicate a whole entire doc or book to it and write down anything that happens during the day. Because I already can see myself feeling a lot better removing the things that were affecting me like toxic friendships or relationships. So please do consider writing down your thoughts once every day or so, because you can realize how much you think about these things. {Also, you can let out any emotion while doing so.}

I told myself as well about what issues with myself I had that was making me feel sad, mad or not myself. For example, I noticed how many fights I would get included in and how it affected me mentally, or how I had such a short temper. I told myself that I want to change myself, mentally I want to remove the toxic thoughts I give myself, the toxic friendships that truly affect me, and how I let them affect me. You don't have to do this but I chose to because I want to portray who I really want to become, not who I currently am. Because even though someone will give a smile and seem so positive like me, we on the inside could be hurting really bad. And it's always good to realize these things before it escalates.

Now onto what this blog post really was meant to be about, my work!

Recently I've been reading the book 'The Wizard of OZ' and it's truly a good book. My literacy teacher recently assigned us a task to create an art piece based on what I have seen or what I've read in the book. I noticed from what I've seen is Dorothy's Dress, and how simple it is. it beautiful don't get me wrong but I feel like it's not what it could be. I saw it's potential.

So for my simple art piece I spent basically an hour on I decided to redraw Dorothy's Dress in my style! Please let me know what you think of the dress!~ Any feedback will be noticed ^w^.

Hope you all are being healthy and staying safe! What have you been doing to keep yourself from going insane? I'd love to know ^^~ See you guys soon!~

*.+ {SCHOOL@HOME} ~ Day ??? ~ It's getting spooky in here! +.*

Kia Ora Beautiful Tim~Tamz,

Welcome back to another blog post! I forgot to post Thursday and Friday so I do hope this makes up for it!~
On Thursday my literacy teacher, Mr. Shaw gave us a task to create our own witch! Unfortunately for the past few days, I've been going through an art block so I had to use a screenshot I had taken a Lil bit ago. This is her slide! She is currently got a bounty of IM+ because of the cruel things she has done for most of her life.

I tried designing the slide to look sort of magical to suit her theme/vibe. If you'd like to go ahead and load up a google slide and create your own witch!~ Just no copy cat's allowed.
I hope you all are feeling alright and haven't gone insane! Toodles~

*.+ {SCHOOL@HOME} ~ Day ?? ~ I'm back for more! What day was it again? +.*

Hola Beautiful Tim~Tamz,

It certainly has been a fortnight since I've blogged! How were your Holidays? Did you do anything cool? I certainly did! I went in my Step~Dad's Old Model T! {search model t up if you don't know} And I helped my family out! Although you do have to stay inside so there was that. :|

I've created a Timetable on Canva for Schooling at Home. {not really homeschooling but you know what I mean} And I thought I'd show you it, You can use it to help you as well :)

Hopefully, all of you are safe and feeling alright :D

Have you got a plan for these remaining COVID~19 days? If so, please let me know! If not, why not try to sort something out with your family? :)
See you tomorrow! Bye! <3

*.+ {QUARANTINE} ~ Day 4 ~ The vibes are getting real! {possible sleep in warning} +.*

Talofa Lava Beautiful Tim~Tamz,

It's day 4 and I have become slightly bored with becoming a burrito... So I decided to do some tasks! {go to the first blog post with quarantine in the title to understand} I came back to playing on maths playground, and I played for 40 minutes! I played Duck Life 4 and I got up to five ducks with great stats and played in two tournaments! Certainly an improvement from last time I played Duck Life 4!

I've also been watching Tik Tok and playing games to speed time up. But I took a break from devices and attempted to build a fort on my bed, although that didn't end very well...
I also did some chores yesterday to show how much I care about my parents because they were both pretty busy. I cleaned the Mount Everest of dishes, did the first load of laundry and deadheaded all the plants in the garden. In the process, I got bitten by an evil baby mosquito and now I have a lump from it. Not pleasant but oh well.

I'm also going to play Trans America with my dad and stepmom tonight. Hopefully, I can beat them, but they are pretty good at playing that game so I'm not sure.

Have you all been enjoying time off school? If so, what have you been doing to keep entertained? If not, maybe try to think of something you could do like build a fort, create a new game, build something using everyday items in your home as some examples. I hope you all are safe and feeling well. Well, see you!
Toodles.

*.+ {QUARANTINE} ~ Day 3 ~ Going outside after 3 days! Yay! {recommended} +.*

Guten Tact Beautiful Tim~Tamz,

It's day 3 and I thought that the day looks absolutely amazing! I really had fun playing with my fam last night! I also got positive feedback from all of my family members with my cooking. I think personally I did good!

Today I've been sleeping a lot because of no school! I also made a big breakfast, I had cereal with blueberries, a palmful of blueberries, two plums and spaghetti bolognese {yes from last night}. Then I created an eBook cover for a story I'm writing! Here is the eBook cover. I'd love to hear your feedback! :3

Sleepaway Academy ~ Grade 1. by Tamzin Wallis-Martin

I've also been talking to my friends and playing games with them :). It's quite fun! I've also been dancing and I'm hosting a dance party with my stepmom in the garage tonight. I'm going to help her out with the garden as well. Fingers crossed she goes out!

How are you feeling? Are you missing your friends? I sure am :C. Well, stay safe during these rough times. See you on tomorrows blog post! Toodles!

*.+ {QUARANTINE} ~ Day 2 ~ Spending Quality Time with Friends and Family +.*

Kia Ora Beautiful Tim~Tamz,

It's day 2 of Quarantine and I thought I don't spend a heap of time with my family so I'd do some of the family-related tasks! {see my first post of quarantine for more info}. Although I can't fully say my results until tomorrow because we all are together after dinner.

But I can explain the tasks that I will do :)
Firstly I am planning tonight's dinner! I'm having Spaghetti Bolognese {Spaghetti, Sauce, Onion, Mushrooms, and Capsicum} with homemade Garlic Bread {Any type of delicious bread, butter, and garlic powder *garlic cloves can be included for extra garlic*}. I already know how to make these too so it'll help me perfect it!

Then I'll be playing either Trans America or 3D Scrabble with my family and doing some Kahoots with them! I'm very excited to spend quality time with the people I love. We also possibly could watch some Disney+ together although I'm not sure yet.

I have been also chatting with some of my friends! It's been a blast and we are also playing Roblox and Minecraft together! Have you talked to your friends recently?

Have you spent some quality time with your family? If so, what did you do together? If not, why not consider spending time with them and do some cool things! Well, it's a short blog post today because I have no photos or anything yet.

Stay Safe and I wish you all a brilliant second day of quarantine! See you all tomorrow,
Toodles!
