End Of Term Wananga post II Culture Kete

Over the last past few weeks, we've been doing a wananga topic on our culture, or if we don't know anything about our culture just basically anything that represents us and tell a story about us.
Over the week we had the time to do this I'd managed to come up with this, All in all, I'm really proud of it and couldn't have asked for anything better. 

My Poster

Blue, Yellow, Red (Colors at the back of the triangle) - These colors represent the pansexual flag which also represents my sexuality.

Family - The boy on the left represents my brother who is a year 7 this year and the girl on the right you'll just have to imagine as a boy, that represents my little brother who is still in primary school, and the girl on the left is me, and the woman on the right is my mother. The question marks that are on the male represent the fact that a father is not present in my life, so my mother takes up the role of mother and father.

The Quote - This quote represents the fact that my older brother is half American and kiwi while the rest of my family is kiwi and half British. <- This is where the part of we stand together as one even through all our differences
The part where it says Hardships we face, This represents the fact a second parent was never present in our lives, and we've always had to rely on our Mother and Grandparents. And because of this, there have been lots of struggles that we've been through, especially since my mother is still looking for a job and has to do polytech again.

The moon and the arrow pointing to the heart with the word baby - This represents the fact that I was born during the middle of the night.

South Islands and Plane - I used to live in Nelson before moving to Christchurch. The star at the top is placed on Nelon on the South Islands and the arrow that is pointing down to the next star is placed on Christchurch. Next to that, I stuck a plane which is another way of saying that I flew to Christchurch instead of drove.

The icons above the people (Pencil = Drawing, Pie = Food, Zz = Sleep, Console = Gaming)
These icons represent the things I like, and the things I like to do. I like drawing as it brings me a sense of relief and pride. Relief to the fact that it calms me down, and pride to the fact that looking at my artwork now I've seen just how much I've improved in my drawing. I also love food, there isn't a time in my life where food isn't involved in my life. One of my favorite things to eat has to be Lasanga and those Pies from the shops. I also spend most of my time if I have nothing better to do sleeping. I find that sleeping even If I know I shouldn't sleep all the time is calming, and makes me feel better. (It also helps pass the time) And lastly the console, I love gaming and most of my friends already know that. One of my favourite game companys are Square Enix, who have made games that I love playing such as FFXVI, FFXV and the KINGDOM HEARTS Franchise, and my otheer favourite company is Game Freak who make pokemon. I had gotten the PS4 for the Kingdom Heart games and the FF games, and now have all the currently released Kingdom heart games that came out in the start of 2020. I also recently got the Nintendo Switch for my birthday. My first game on it was Pokemon Lets go pikachu and my second which I recently got on Easter Saturday was Pokemon Sword. These games have given me a lot of inspiration as well as a fandom with many fanstaic people in them to talk to.
