Dear Future Me

Dear Future Me,



It’s 15 April 2020.  We are in lockdown at the moment.  New Zealand’s first case was confirmed on 28 of Feb.  That was the scariest thing.



New Zealand had 1,084 people infected, 770 recovered, and 9 people who had sadly passed away.



  I feel really good to be at home.  I get to sleep in longer, I can spend quality time with Mum and Dad, and, I can eat a lot :).



  New Zealand is doing a pretty good job on lockdown.  Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern is doing a great job at protecting New Zealand.  She might even extend the lockdown.



 I’m super lucky none of my family members are infected.  Everyone is doing just fine!



  It’s pretty hard getting food supplies and toiletries.  The cues at the supermarkets are very long.  You would have to wait a long period of time.  Mum always gets groceries.  She leaves the house once, or twice a week.



Online school is pretty hard.  At school you could just ask your teacher for help.  But online, you have to email.  I really do miss hanging out with my friends.  All we do is just video chat.



Everyday, I facetime my cousin and play with him on roblox!.  That’s the only thing that makes my day!.  As you know, Siu lives far away!.  The only way I can contact him is by facetime!.



I really miss my baby cousins.  Leylah and Lucas.  I don’t get to see them that much.  Lucas is getting real big, and I’m not there to see him grow up.  I really hope this lockdown ends sooner.  When this lockdown ends I’m gonna go see my family!.  I can’t wait to see my cousins!.  I have other cousins too.  Ngapera, Mira, and Kafu.  All of them are Siu’s siblings.  I really miss them but as you know, they live far away.



 At the moment, I’m not worried about anything!.  I’m just happy that my whole family is safe!.



I’ve learned to be more helpful towards my parents, and to work hard to whatever I want to achieve.  I see how hard my parents work to keep a roof over me and my brother's head.  I see how hard they work to give us food.  Nearly every day, Mum and Dad work hard to make sure we are not sick.  They keep us safe.  I have very hard working parents and I’ve learned to work hard in school.  Mum and Dad want us to work hard in school in order to get into the college we want.



I’m super thankful that none of us have the disease, and I’m super thankful for Mum and Dad taking care of us.



I love to talk to my cousin.  There is never a day we miss calling each other.  Early in the morning my cousin calls to play roblox.  He’s always busy but he makes sure he calls me.  That helps me A LOT.  Since it’s so boring at home, I get to talk to him every single day. :).



At the moment, I feel really bored and tired of staying home.  I hope this lockdown ends soon.







Task Description:  This is my writing to my future self.  I wrote a letter about what is happening in New Zealand at the moment.  I had to explain how I feel during quarantine.  This is a good experience for us who are not sick.  We now know how it feels for the people who have covid-19.  It must be really frustrating and boring for them to stay in a hospital.  Prayers go out to all the people infected.

TASK DESCRIPTION:  This is Day 1 of my Easter Learning journey!.  Check out this link and visit our Team 5 site!.  For the first activity, I had to take a photo of what I would take with me to travel.  I picked a cross.
