The Loss of a Loved One - By Me :D

I Wrote a Recount about a book I read called Last Lines, I am still not finished so please enjoy and leave some comments down below :D

The Loss of a Loved One.

Losing a Fight is worthless,losing a loved one is beyond priceless.

Matiu was only 12 and his mother  38 and father was 40.
He went to King’s School Prep (School for early students too year 8’s for boys). His headmaster Tony sissons always gave out a motto “Virtus Pollet (“Manliness Prevails”)
He used it to persuade them into doing hard work. His father approved of him being at that school,teaching him the ways of being a man and the expectations he needs to work hard. His dad was hardworking,handsome but also aggressive he pushes him too hard and makes him do things that are too difficult for him to do like run around the block 5 times then come home to do press ups, all that exercise stuff. One day him and his dad were playing hardcore basketball (Street Rules) Him and his dad were going at it for hours and hours until his dad heart raised so much his heart punched against his chest causing him to have a heart attack. Matiu called the ambulance and his mother telling her that him and his dad were heading to the hospital. 30 minutes later they were at the hospital surround by family members they haven’t seen in years.

Matiu’s dad was laying on his bed eyes wide open and his hands shaking.

In My Magic Box
By Me :D
Seeing as that i found a magic box, could be a tiny fox in the magic box.
It smells like the countryside with its perfume of nature in the air,seeing as the magic box is just a tiny box.
Hearing animals roaring and howling inside the tiny box. Wondering that a fox might be changed with a lock.
Tasting the box’s square tiles tasted like a chocolate cake with a special icing on top. But then a hint of jello jelly made my jaw drop.
The magic tiny box felt like a polar bear’s fur, warm and warm. Wondered where the skin of a polar bear’s skin was torn. But still it’s just a tiny box with an extra-ordinary secret that lays inside and out.

What I did for my Holidays

For my Holidays I tried to attempt myself into doing the Fun and Amazing Site called the Winter Learning Journey, I blogged one that i did but i couldn't finish the others because of my parent's leaving to go to my grandparents house in Whakatane. It was fun being at home,staying up late but i also missed them dearly, wanting them to come home, it was fun while it lasted. then when they came home we played some games on the xbox while my mom and dad discussed about going to the auckland museum and going to the pools, which we didn't end up going to because of my dads work and my mom being busy with  her work. Me and My siblings went to the park instead for 4 days straight while getting money and spending the whole thing on junk, that same night we got the money my mom and dad said we had to get our own dinner  which was funny because we spent it all. so we sat around and made us some macaroni. i didn't eat much but then while i stayed up around 12:24pm i ate more while playing Castle Clash,Dragon Glory,Tanki and on Gmail & Discord which was fun while voice calling with friends for the first time and laughing because Drako (Zeevon), Matt (Matthew/Murphys_Law)  & Ryan (Fire_Hawk) plus me :D (Malia Deluxe Wolfy) started making fun of Drako because his sisters were saying some funny stuff.
It was all fun and thats what i did for my holidays plus, sleeping and cleaning :D

Amazing Places in New Zealand You Should Visit

I know i finished this late but i just wanted to share this today.
I really loved the fun activities on this list and i wanted to share it with you all.
I hope everyone atleast tries one of these and hopefully you had fun.
Thank you all and hope your holidays were amazing and fun.
From me :)

New Flag for New Zealand - Designable Flag

The Red strip on the flag represents Love & passion towards anything and everything, imagine yourself flying a kite,imagine it tossing and turning in the breeze waiting and making beautiful loops in the sky. now picture it taking off and ending up in the tree. what would you do? leave it and drown with sadness or try your best to retrieve it.
The Blue strip represents Honour and Hard work. Look at it as a goal. a goal you and striving to reach and complete. all goals aren't as easy and just cheating and not walking long distances to achieve it look at it as a diet. working hard and long to burn off the hard activities to finally reach your goal and completing it.
The yellow represents Yourself and others. Think of it as Whanaungatanga,Manaakitanga,Tukumarie,Rangimarie and Ako - all meaning self goals of mindset and self resemblance. Whanaungatanga means  Building relationships. Meaning you need to build respectable and peaceful relationships with your pairs inside and outside of class and school.
Manaakitanga means Caring for others. meaning you need to respect and look after each and everyone in our community and in our classrooms. Tukumarie means Tolerance. which means doing the right thing when no one is looking, even during a bad time you can always forgive and forget the situation and move on.
Rangimarie means Peace. Which means bringing peaceful in the classroom where you learn and showing respect,happiness and a growth mindset inside the classroom and during class or school activities.
Ako means Learning. Learning how you can improve in your learning and in  
yourself. think of it as your personal goal. trying to reach a hard goal but it can still be worth your time. your friends,family and teachers are there to help you on the way. making sure you're eating right,doing the right thing on your netbook and making sure your learning area is tidy.

Now the Emblem in the triangular spot represents New Zealand how we have 3 goals that we should show. 
Respect,Kindness and Hard work. 3 of the many goals New Zealand Stands for and working for. 
Respect - showing a good attitude towards everything or trying to show a good attitude.
Kindness - Showing kindness and looking after others when hurt or in need of help.
Hard Work - trying your best in activities and school work. giving everything a try and trying your greatest to complete everything (or trying to)
