Why people commit suicide

Why people commit suicide


Though i’ve never lost a friend or a family member to suicide I’ve lost a brother.
I know a lot of people who have committed suicide and how it feels to know that they're  gone and why they did it. Im wondering if it's got to do with self harming, bullying and other reasons.


Why did your friend, child, parent or sibling take their own life? Even when a note explaining the reasons is found, questions usually remain. Yes, they felt enough hurt to want to die, but why did they feel that? A person’s suicide often takes the people it leaves behind by surprise. and great hurting, blaming themselves.


In my opinion I’ve lost a very close person in my life he was only 13 that's the worst I’ve ever been. It hurts and you feel, how do you describe it, angry at everything sad, pain and upset.


These people don’t usually want to die but do want to alert those around them that something is seriously wrong. They often don’t believe they will die,often choosing methods they don’t think can kill them in order to strike out at someone who’s hurt. But are sometimes tragically mislead.


A suicide attempt must always be taken seriously.Never doubt suicide and the ones that are doing it stop being stupid if you're really young in your teens you got a whole life to live ahead don’t end it. I know it’s hard but talked to someone don’t hide it anymore just please think about what you’re doing. it’s not your time yet. and people that you’re leaving behind your making it worse i’m sure you’ve got people that care about you.   


My experience of seeing suicide was a tragic accident seeing the person you love in a coffin and you didn’t even get to say goodbye or even tell them to stop it. you didn’t tell them how much you love them. well i’ll tell you a little story the 13 year old boy past away from being bullied all he could do is take his own life and see how much pain everyone was in.


and suicide is never the answer to problems but Suicide is another reason to say GOODBYE.

“Kah Boom” as the explosive unexpected bomb blows. On Sunday a beautiful afternoon Layla and her whanau made a mighty blockbuster bomb. Seeing that bomb blow made layla panic. The hot scorching sun was out. waiting for the bomb to blow up her brother lit the bomb a trifle thing happened.

Making the bomb was very tough grabbing the gunpowder. everything look like a pigsty after they came to the end of putting it together bunching it all up in little bottles.

She was feeling excited at one moment but then she had a odd feeling it was going to blow the entire house up. But she was just kidding herself. looking at the bomb with a large amount stacked in was frightening.

‘What if it sets the trees on fire’ thinking to herself ‘and what are we going to do if that terrible thing happens’.  

So she called out to her brother “ will it set the trees on fire. “
He replied back louder “ NO.” she didn’t know much about bombs and how they will react in this hot dreadful sun.
But her brother was saying gunpowder can not set on fire. she was sure he was being a build ups and lying to her.

As they all opened the back door and fired the bomb out there she was looking at Rangi wondering if they would run inside. But they decided not to.
As Layla’s brother grabbed the lighter and lit it they all ran away but nothing was happening.

until James walked close and there it went “ BOOOOOM “ James looked like he was blown away.

At the end of all of this Layla wanted to make another one so they did but that's by far the bestest bomb Layla seen and heard she hopes they try it again.

1st Animation


This is my planning sheet for mine and Nomairangi advertisement animation. Our planning was about pig hunting, our advertisement is about Hunting & Fishing Clothes and how those clothes go well together when you are hunting.

We had to do 4 scenes: Scene 1: In the bush looking for the pig. Scene 2: Dog smell the pig and starts chasing it. Scene 3: The man run over and shoot the pig. Scene 4: Walking the pig back to there truck on his back


Creating the advert.WALT: create a 30 second advert.SCCreate a 300 photo shot  advert.I or 2 close-up shots on your character - portrait or close-up on facial shotAudience must know what you are advertising. Image and slogan must be provided.Movements of character or characters must be fluid, slower, more body movements shown.Add Title at the beginning and credits at the end. Don’t forget the music that reflects your mood for your advert.


My ReflectionThe thing that we did well were our videoing, planning, working as a team, creating our scene and building our characters. The learning that took place was how to use wevideo, how to use Stop Motion App, using plasticine and teamwork. The thing we are proud of as a group is what it turned out to look like as a first animation, our planning and our teamwork once again. I think we should improve on making better plasticine people, more props and making sure we can’t see people's shadows.

My trip to Tautoro-school.

“Hurry up and come to the car” I was yelling at my dad.
“Just wait Myra” he replied angrily.
“Stop thinking you're a grown up cause you’re not” my mum responded
‘I should stand by the door,’ thinking in my mind, ‘so I can hurry him up about it.’
“Schools going to be finish by the time we leave” I was whining.
“Don’t be so dramatic and being a drama queen” my mum called out.
“Just take your daughter” mum shouted.
“I would take her, but the sleepy head slept in and never woke up”
Dad answered Mum.
“Well it’s not my fault I heard the television all night” I said back!
“it is your fault” Mum was saying “  You should've just turned the t.v off if it was bothering you.”

I came out with it “We have to be in time for school”
“Okay we’re leaving” dad had suggested  
“Yusss finally”  I said.
We drove down the driveway on our way to school. But I just knew I had forgotten my lunch at home.
We already past the house before I knew it and so I had to make a Decision. whether
  1. To ask dad for money to buy lunch  
  2. or don’t eat.
But I can’t starve too so  I went with number one so I asked my dad
“Dad can I get some lunch on the way to school?”
“I’ll buy you a lasagna and drink at the dairy in Tautoro”
“Thanks Dad”
So there we were on our way to kura/school and mahi/work As we arrived
all I could see were my friends standing outside waiting for me to arrive.
I was so happy and then the van stopped so dad could let me off.
So there I was hopping out of the Van and I said to my dad. “see you later”
dad replied “Yup, see you at the bus stop.”

I did Knock First horror story.

I DID KNOCK FIRST

There was a girl named Jade, one cold dark, silent night she had gone missing, and died at age 12. She died in a beautiful lake called Lake Rotorua, it was through word of mouth the best place for camping. The locals in Rotorua said that she was camping in the forest with her mother, father and her 2 siblings.

When they were camping Jade's family had gone to sleep, so Jade had jumped out of her tent and looked at the stunningly beautiful sky that was floating above of her head. She crawled out of the tent like a spider then got up and grabbed her torch. she had went for a hikoi  in the forest. she found a cold glistening lake and on that lake was a beautifully designed waka it was brown and the carvings on the waka were paua. In the front of the waka there was a face. The part she didn’t know was that the waka was owned by a scary maori man and his taniwha that lived in the dark rocky deep lake. Jade jumped in the waka she paddled in the middle of the lake where no one can see her on either side.Image result for a old scary maori manImage result for ngatokimatawhaorua

Jade grabbed her pencil out of her unknown pocket and she found a book full of drawings of the taniwha, as she grabbed the book she looked at all the drawings when she scrolled through the last page it was a piece of writing and it said Image result for scary taniwha
“E te taniwha hoki mai hoki mai” Jade never new maori so she said  it  over and over again.

Something was wrong She heard a knock but she just thought it was the wind.
there was a second knock but then It was even louder
She felt really frightened.
Then She seen a thing swimming her way she tried to hide in the seats of the Waka. But it did not work.
She was screaming it was getting closer and closer and even closer she didn't know what to do but scream for help.

But her family didn’t hear anything they were fast asleep.

She was screaming her lungs of she was really scared.
BUt she couldn’t do anything about it she tried to paddle fast but then boom
the Taniwha ate her.

but in the Waka the book was there all the pages had human writing but the last page did not

and it had said

Coaching netball
“YES” hearing Whaea Meri. asking me a question
“I’ll be honoured to coach the girls in Netball” I had suggested  
‘Things to do’ I was thinking;things to sort’ like uniforms,training,times and places.’ I was frustrated All these things to do training the girls was hard work but I had a partner in crime,”her name was Jade. She helped me with training uniforms getting everything ship and sharp for the girls. Fearsome   unstoppable games.“Well,” I said to Jade “We need to get things ready so the girls are awesome for their games.“But it’s not about winning, just having fun,” Jade and I were saying “as long as the girls have fun out there we don’t need to worry.”As the day came around the corner I had  bigger butterflies then the little ones playing. They were so excited! They wouldn’t stop talking about it and telling us.“No slip,No trip” Whaea Meri kept saying “Bring your slip girls you don’t want to miss out” Even Jade and I needed to bring a slip.

“The day is here,” I said. I had everything lunch,slip,water and hat I was ready and so were the little ones.But as Jade walked in she told me she forgot all about it and she didn’t remember about the slip.I was devastated.I didn’t have someone to back me up and help me with the girls.So Jade and I had a plan to ring her mum. But there was a bigger problem; we were late for the games. We had no time to ring up; we had to go.So Jade was so angry that couldn’t come.But there was always a solution to this problem. Just let her come and Her mum can write the letter tomorrow.No one wanted to let The Co-coach miss out because she doesn't have a slip.Anyway Jade got to go. So we left and as we got to Kaikohe we continued getting really excited.

As we were at the corner of Penney Cres we could already see the netball courts and all the schools turning up. It was so awesome to see all the schools show up and contribute to netball and play one another.
Tautoro did really well in their netball It was really great to see them, but Jade and I only watched half of their games but that was okay.
After the games finished we packed up and we went back to school.`
Summary: I enjoyed my day with the girls and to see the outcome of the games it was so stunning.

Finding uncle Anthony in middlemore hospital

‘How hard can it be to locate Uncle Anthony?’ I thought in frustration! I hate walking, but walking with no direction - up and down stairs, in and out of rooms for what seemed like ages, was making me angry.
Image result for middlemore hospital

Dad was frustrated asking questions. People kept telling him the wrong directions making us confused ‘we don’t know where to go’ I was thinking in my mind
“were lost” I was telling dad.

Chloe was tired and she always wanted to sit down because her legs and arms were getting sore. All she wanted to do was hop on the seat and relax.

Nan & Mum weren’t phased and all they wanted to do was just to see uncle Anthony and spend time with him.

This wasn’t the first time I’ve been to the hospital but I got to say it’s bigger than kawakawa hospital.Way bigger, there was even a new building I’ve never seen that before and then I looked up and seen all the patients rooms ‘wow’ I thought in my mind.

As we found the room that uncle Anthony was in I looked straight at him and felt like crying. I walked over to him a gave him a huge hug and kissed him on the foreheadI didn’t want to cry in front of him. So I kept it to myself.

After we had a couple of hours with Uncle we decided we needed to get back to kaikohe 
before dark time so we said our goodbyes and our crys.

Summary:
I was glad I found my Uncle.  All that walking is nothing compared to what he’s going through.
