Daily Question

the other?

I imagine a good life for me is to hang out with friends spend most of the time at the beach
rollerskate, listen to records bike have fun have a lot more freedom and for school to be a lot more
fun and less boring

Matariki

Hi, my name is Tylah and I strongly believe Matariki should be a public holiday.

First of all why not? What makes Matariki less special than all the other public holidays?

We have a public holiday for the Queen's birthday but it's only a birthday why should everyone take the
day off for one person's birthday so if you have a public holiday for that then why not have one for
Matariki.
Matariki is extremely important. It is all about spending time with our whanau, our families, and because
it is also the time for the restart of the Maori calendar.  

Matariki is a New Zealand wide celebration. Everyone has a hungi and food but you can't really celebrate
it if you have school or work. That's just another reason why it should be a public holiday.

    

In conclusion, I believe we can make this a public holiday thank you for listening.

Matariki log

Matariki signals the Māori New Year. Traditionally, it was a time for remembering the dead and celebrating a new life. In the 21st century, observing Matariki has become popular again. Matariki is celebrated for 3 days. There are nine stars in the Greek tradition of the constellation: seven children and their parents. In the Māori tradition. On Matariki, you eat lamb, pork, vegetables, seafood, plants, and herbs all cooked in a hangi. Matariki is officially celebrated on the 25 June. To find Matariki you must look low on the horizon in the northeast of the sky. Matariki disappears early may and comes back late may/ early June. Matariki is also on our country's flag, To also spot Matariki easier find the brightest star called Hinetakurua also known as the winter maiden as we continue left we will find 3  bright stars in a row called tautoru as you go slightly down in the same direction you will see a bright cluster of stars called Matariki.

Reflection

This is my reflection of the last 12 months. In July me and my mum went to Christchurch and Timaru for my sister's hockey and netball tournament. It was really fun I really enjoyed it. In Christchurch, me and my mum would go shopping and we got heaps of new clothes and shoes and random stuff I liked. I really liked Christchurch but sadly we had to go down to Timaru for 3 nights. I packed all my stuff together hopped in the car and me and my mum drove off to Timaru. I played my unusual, old, classic music the whole way. When my mum told me on the drive that we would be staying in an Inn I was shocked ‘’at an Inn?? I cried” a whiplash of the shining came through, don't be stupid I told myself just because you have watched the shining at 11 o'clock at night does not mean Johnnys gonna kill you because you can't fit through the window. Timaru was fun, the Inn was nice - we stayed in the room most of the time. It was a two-story house and looked like the Inn off Gilmore girls. We had a movie night and watched IT and ate lots of lollies.

Fast forward to Halloween (October) I did my sisters makeup she wanted to be vsco girl now here's the tricky part I'm white, I'm a vampire, I do not under any circumstance have a dark foundation so I did have to use foundation and put dark setting power on her face, in the end, it looked good but she wiped it off because she wanted to put a fake cut on her face when she could have just put the cut on top of it, I dunno shes strange, anyway I stayed home on Halloween like I do every day - I ain't got no daylight ring don't wanna burn in the sun TEHE.

Anyhow fast forward again (I know) to Aussie aka Christmas it was so good I went to all the theme parks. I went on all the drops and all rollercoasters. I loved the roller coasters I went on the biggest newest one the DC one but I call it the joker because the mouth is the joker. The gold coast was so good we stayed in the best apartment ever it was so flash and I loved it. We stayed in one of the highest apartments and the view was amazing. We also went down to the sunshine coast to my aunts. We went to the biggest mall I have ever seen and I watched this show called miraculous, cartoon kids show, do I care? nope, it was a good show. After 11 days in Aussie, we flew back home.

Now that we are all caught up we can fast forward to now - me loving having a month and a few off school because there's this virus going around called the coronavirus or if your odd you can say covid19 which stands for coronavirus disease 2019 or something like that - anyway I'm in lockdown and not allowed to leave the house chilling, watching movies, doing school work and stuff like that. I wish that I never have to go back to school EVER. This virus started when Chinese people kept eating bats. China was the worst country with the number of corona cases and deaths but they got on top of it and now no surprise America is, stupid Donald trump ANYWAY.  (me whispering) The real reason some might say of the coronavirus is the Matariki sisters wanting to punish everyone when WELL THAT'S MY STORY BYE EVERYONE.

Me and my brother were on a cliff drinking
water from a puddle then all of a sudden a huge gunshot fired Bang! My heart stopped, I turned
around, my brother was still sleeping, no blood, not dying, phew he's still alive. I took a huge sigh of
relief, I pulled him up onto his feet. He was confused, what's going on he cried? I pulled him along and
kept running into the forest. I looked behind me to make sure my brother was following phew he's
still there. Then I turned a sharp corner and headed for this small hole in the ground, I dived in then
got up and turned around.  I waited 2 seconds then my brother came and dove on me oww I cried,
sorry he said in a tired tone wow its so cool in here. I looked around, I know I cried, but why are we in
here he replied. Hunters I said in a frightened tone, what hunters, why would they hunt us, I'm not sure
but on more important matters why didn't u wake up? The gunshot was huge, I said, a little bit angry.
Well I dunno I was sleeping he said in his lazy tired tone, I rolled my eyes.
