*.+ {Normal School!} ~ Day 5 ~ Keeping up to date on schoolwork is kinda hard... +.*
Hello, Beautiful Tim~Tamz,
It's been basically 8 Weeks since I've last been in school and it feels weird. I've gotten so used to normal school everyday life that the moment lockdown hit I freaked out in away. My emotions went w i l d and it gave me some self-time. Overall it was a rollercoaster, emotionally, and physically. But It was worth it because it cleared the fog in my brain about my feelings and it got me into the habit of writing down my feelings.
Over the lockdown period, I was reading the book and watching the movie about the Wizard of Oz. And in my opinion, I think it covers some serious topics in a less grim way. My Teacher has set us to create a google site about wizard of oz and some topics we want to cover. Here is a current screenshot of the home page as it's not complete. but I will add a link once it's finished :)
For Math I've been answering these algebra questions using a program called Kaggle. It uses a coding language called Python to answer some math questions. Although you don't use the normal multiplication symbol nor division, instead you use these symbols. / = a fraction or division, * = times or multiplication, **3 = a certain number times 3 but in a shorter way and + symbol for plus. Brackets are also used for some occasions. Here is a picture of my slide for some evidence :)
Apart from that I've been living life to its fullest! How have you been going with your schoolwork? I'd love to know! Well See you in the next blog post! Toodles <3
{P.S ~ If you are feeling down or in need to ask for help about mental health or something else, just know that it's ok to ask and reach out. I'm here as well if you need to speak to someone. <3 Stay safe.}

*.+ {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.}

*.+ {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? :)
https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1MtukePj13kSy1BINTfdYoIG8asjZE1CK3dnx1AsAeYc/edit?usp=sharing {P.S ~ Still figuring out the whole adding documents system. :)}
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^.

*.+ {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~

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