Post about anything

 Now like before there just isn't anything interesting to talk about, that goes on at school cause all were doing is assessments, I mean there is one thing we have been doing that isn't an assessment, which is called Mates and Dates, but we only have it twice or once a week and we've so far only done two sessions so not much to really talk about.

So instead I'll be talking about FFXIV a game I really love and adore

I began playing Final Fantasy XIV last year, and to say I love it, the community nice and there are lots of people to talk to. My favourite expansion is Shadow brings as it has a character named G'raha Tia in it, G'raha is a Cat boy (Yes they have cat people, as well as bunny people, and demon people called Au ra, Bunny people are called Veria's while Cat people are called Miqo'te)

I play as a female Miqo'te to represent my gender, a female.
When playing FFXIV you can play as and job on one class, so alts rarely are a needed thing as you can play any job on one character.
On my character I main healers, the healer I play is called the White Mage which is mainly a healing type. Each healer has their own role, one of the other healers can heal but can also buff. The one healer I am really excited about is the sage, which will come out in patch 6.0 when EndWalker comes out, The sage is a healer who mainly does healing and barriers to protect their teammates from dying.

I honestly really enjoy playing as a healer cause I rather save people than cause people problems by always dying, plus when you're a healer you get to stay away from the boss most of the time, which is nice.


My Character.

Wananga II Post about anything

Recently as the weeks go on, less and less interesting things are happening, because of assessments for year 11, the only thing that really seems to make my days at school fun is seeing my friends, and Friday period 4, 5 and lunch where I have coaching.

But apart from that, not much is happening.

So instead I'll be talking about what I've been doing at home, instead of talking about Assessments.

Recently at home, I've been playing sims 4, which I fully enjoy. Whenever I start up a sim game I also go Pinterest shopping for clothes and mods. When I go shopping for things, I try to look in the anime section for hairs as some people make really good hairs, most of the hairs in my sims are from, Genshin Impact, Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy XV. Cause I love Final Fantasy.

Speaking of Final Fantasy, I've been waiting a while for the new Endwalker Expansion to come out for FFXIV. My first time playing Final Fantasy was during a trial of the game. I really enjoyed the trial so decided to get all of the current expansions since they were on a discount. I enjoy the storyline and the effects. though I seemed to be having trouble completing a quest. <- That was in 2020 in Nov. Now it's 2021, and I wish to continue playing again. Start a new character and relive the game again.
And can't wait for the new expansion with the two new classes.

Blog Post... About Anything II Wananga

Since not much has been happening in Wananga lately except for assessments I'm going to be talking about what I've been doing out of school at home for the last past few days.

My Favourite things to do when out of school is to play Pokemon most importantly Pokemon Sword, I had recently got the expansion pass after deciding between the pass or getting Little Nightmares 2. I'm glad I got the pass cause I recently got Dialga and Palkia which I fully enjoyed EV training them and levelling them up to the max level. The other pokemon on my team is the male Indeed, Galvantula and the rapid strike version of Urshifu.

After hard grinding and gathering EXP candies, I got all of them to level 100 eventually.
I named my Indeedee Dachi and my Galvantula Sparkles. (I Love them very much)

In all honesty, I can't wait for Pokemon Brilliant Diamond as myself has played Pokemon Platinum and fully enjoyed the game and can't wait for the remakes. The only thing I wished they changed was the look of it, and not made it chibi and made it into sort of Pokemon Gen 8's look. But we all can't get what we want.

Blog Post II What I've been doing the last past 2 weeks II

For the last past 2 weeks in Wananga, we've been working on Assessment. This assessment is based on our Well-being. There are two docs that both equal one Assessment. Thankfully their not that complicated if you know what it's talking about. Most of the stuff on the assessment is about our well-being and factors that could change our well-being or affect it. For E.g sleep, If I don't get enough sleep I'm all groggy and tired in the morning till lunchtime comes around.

Apart from Wananga

I've been doing other things in school such as doing coach training before the 28th for PE, which in turn is another Assessment.
And in Health I'm almost onto another Assessment about the changes in one's Well-Being we'll be watching a movie for this assessment and writing down what changes the Main Character went through.
In English, we've also recently started another Assessment... While doing that Assessment I'm also trying to finish another English one.

So in turn most of my school life currently is just Assessment.

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.

English II Over the shoulder shot (OTS)

WALT - "Analyse how film aspects show meaning"

This marks my last DLO for the Film/Visual Language topic. I fairly enjoyed doing this one, I was kinda confused but I got the hang of what the OTS Shot meant later on when making this. I hope that In the future I'll be able to understand how the OTS Shot works more in the future.

English II Dutch Tilt

WALT -  "Analyse how film aspects show meaning"

This marks the third DLO I've done for the topic of Film/Visual Language, Honestly, I kinda enjoyed doing the dutch tilt because it's such an interesting shot to me. The fact that once you keep seeing this shot in movies, you'll always know if somethings going to happen and what's likely to happen.
