A trip to Japan

 

Greetings from Japan!

I am writing to you to inform that I am having the most wonderful time. Summer here is like nothing you have ever seen before. The blossom trees are in bloom, I love having picnics under them. The food here is out of this world, never have I tried something as different but delicious as what they sell here! I hope that soon I can come here again and I hope that I can bring you along!

Hope you are doing ok back in Gizzy. 

See you soon.

Your friend,

Estella

The Majestic Wolfus

 

 On the news a local named Estella was out exploring the great Caribbean waterfall. She was busy taking pictures and selfies of the beautiful waterfall and the view down below, when she heard a rustle in a nearby bush. She was not scared because she had been on many many previous adventures, so she quietly tiptoed up to the bush and peeked inside. She couldn't believe her eyes, inside was a strange hybrid. It was a creature mixed between a wolf and a walrus. She scurried backwards as the weird creature moved towards her. It couldn't move very fast because it was kind of flopping around the water. Estella tripped over a loose rock as she was running, the creature approached. It lowered its head, opened its mouth and...started to lick her. She named the creature the majestic Wolfus Estellarus, named after herself. These special creatures are extremely endangered from naughty poachers, who stalk them and kill, as they are very slow movers. The message we need to send out around the world...

Don't be scared of the Wolfus Estellarus, it is extremely friendly.

King Kitty

Behold the new ruler of northern Denmark, King Kitty. With power so big, he can rule them all if he chooses, destroying everything that is in his way to victory. King Kitty does not give any mercy and many have begged at the foot of his fluffy paws and been thrown into a dungeon. Who's side shall you support in the years to come, a side of utter power and destruction, or the side you've known your whole life. The choice is yours. 

Media and its forms

 

For Manaiakalani yesterday we had to create a poster, video etc etc, to explain the different forms of Media in whatever way you wanted to. I thought that I should list the forms of old and new Media. I really like this activity, it was a very good idea to let us choose what to make our project on. I did find it hard to make my lists the right size so that it didn't go in the pink area. I really like the final result and I look forward to your tips and feedback.
