Understanding Publisher C.R.A.P

C.R.A.P

Contrast,Repetition,Alignment,Proximity

Understanding Contrast

• Using small and large fonts
• Using colours from opposite sides of the colour wheel.
• Having dark coloured text on a light coloured background and light coloured text on a dark coloured background.
• Dark and light coloured colours include black and white.
• Both cards have exactly the same information
• The second card has a contrasting font size and makes use of contrasting background/text colours

  Understanding Repetition

• There are two types of repetition...

• The first is repeating the same word a number of times "Sale Sale Sale" uses repetition to get the message across. In this case that there is a sale on
• The second repetition is the same as consistency. If you choose a particular font size/colour for a heading or body text you should stick to it.
• It repeats the title three times to help emphasize what the flyer is about

Understanding Alignment

• Alignment is a big word that basically means making sure things line up. None of the examples we have done so far has had any sort of alignment needed.
• Alignment is needed when you have blocks of images or text. It also means not mixing left, right, centre and justified alignment when blocks are close to each other.
• The company name lines up with the photo at the top. The email address does the same at the bottom.
• Using the arrow keys to move objects around one pixel at a time.
• Increasing or reducing the size of the space between words to help get the size to match.
• Using separate text boxes for each block of text and making use of the alignment options
• To get more precise font sizes type in the font size such as 10.5

Understanding Similarity and Proximity 

• In the three examples, all show good use of similarity. The first on size, the second on colour and the third on the shape.
• Proximity is another word for close. It just means keeping things that are similar/ related close to each other.
• You should not put half of a person's address at the top of a document and the other half at the bottom.

Willowbank Trip

Last Tuesday 4th of June 2019 my ESOL class and I went on a school trip to Willowbank Wildlife Reserve. My fellow classmates had never been on Willowbank before but for me, It’s my third time that I went there because every year my dad’s company always had a Christmas Annual Party there so I’m not new to it.

When we arrived at Willowbank it was bloody cold. The first thing that Ms Briggs do is final counting or checking of us who was there and who’s not. She handles us out an animal food that we can give and feed the animals. Finally, Ms.briggs divide us up into 3 groups so we can roam around and enjoy it unless if she’s with 24 students.

As we walking around I found out that one of my friends is scared of any kinds of birds as like chicken, duck any many more. I enjoy that time cause I was just laughing so hard on her. She was shaking and her knees were so knobbly, even though she so scared. I never left her alone I stay on her side and support that she needs to face her fear.

Information Report

Kea also knew as a (“Nestor notabilis”) is a unique endemic species of large parrot in the family, which you can only find in the Southern Alps of New Zealand.

Kea well. Raucous cries of "kea" often give away the presence of these highly social and inquisitive birds. However, their endearing and mischievous behaviour can cause conflict with people. Kea will often congregate around novel objects, and their strong beaks have enormous manipulative power. Kea grows up to 50 cm long and although mostly vegetarian, also enjoy grubs and insects. The kea is related to the forest kaka (Nestor meridionalis). It is thought to have developed its own special characteristics during the last great ice age, by using its unusual powers of curiosity in its search for food in a harsh landscape. Nests are usually found among boulders in high altitude forest where the birds lay between two and four eggs during the breeding season from July and January.

Keas have green feathers to camouflage them in trees. They also have 4 toes on each foot which allows them to manipulate objects. Keas’ beaks are long and curved which enable them to eat different types of food. Kea live on a forested and rocky mountain. In summer, they live on top of the mountain and in winter, they go down the mountain. They can be found in the South Island of New Zealand. Keas live for about 5 to 25 years in the wild and about 50 years in captivity. Kea breed from early July to January. The Kea’s nest is mainly below the tree line. Baby keas, stay in the nest for about 12 weeks with their mother, while their father hunts for food. The keas population size is now difficult because of the extensive range, low kea density, and rugged terrain. The conservation status of keas was declared naturally endangered in 2013.

One word that you think is worthless

You think that's just a simple word.

But you did not go through your heart and mind

That might hurt your character
Destroy your future Slow down your sleeping heart. But no matter how painful he was
It can not be avoided as it brings joy,
love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, day and night.
I'm not restless every minute I'm not with him I want him to come home and sleep in a bed.

Unexpected Wealth

One hot, sunny and beautiful day here in my grandparent's house they wake me up the sun is so bright it hurts my eyes, they said to me at that moment that it was already 10:00 am and still, I'm lying on my bed it's pretty hard for me to wake up I was so tired that time.....But before I tell you what happens last night let me just tell you what brings me here to move to my grandparent's house.

(My life before when I wasn't at my grandparent's house)

Before I moved to my grandparent's house my life before is kind off mournful you wanna know why? Because my parents always left me at our house because of their work. So I understand why they have to do this it's for my school and my future as a daughter it was so tough for me to see that they were so busy day and night and actually don't have enough time for me and to have some special bonding with us three but it never happened. I hope they will also have some free time for me even though that they  were so busy...but one day I woke up with the scream I hurriedly ran out to see what happen, I saw my mom crying so hard and I asked her what happen she replied to me that something happens to your father and it was really i asked her why what happens to my dad my mom replied to me that my father has stage 4  cancer and if he's not healed he may die and I don't want that happen..At that time my mom has to leave because of the work she asked me if I can stay at the hospital also to look after to my father I was so tired that time and I have no idea how did I go to my grandparents I think they visit my dad and saw me already fell asleep and bring home to their house...When I woke up I've surprised that I'm at my grandparent's house I asked them how did I go here they said we picked you up on the hospital to sleep here and I said ok I quickly ran going to  the garage and to drove all the way to the hospital when I turn on the lights I saw this box which is black I'm thinking what is inside of this box I get the box and see what's inside and I saw that there is a lot of money in there I thank god for what he has done to me and gave me this box of money this might be the solution to our problem this might help my father who was ill that time I asked my grandparents if they know who is the owner of this box they have no idea who is the owner of this they said to me that box of money should be the solution to your problem I quickly grabbed it and bring to the hospital but I was so late that time I ran to my mom just to said what I've got she said to me it was so late my father die I cried out that time I don' know what to do I asked god why did you do this me and why you sent me a box of money that is gonna not help for my father. I was so wrong I trust you and didn't hear my hope that to spend more time with my father . My mom asked me if we can just donate the money on the box on a cancer foundation I said yeah it was a great idea mom we can actually help others by doing it...The day has come we have to go and donate the money on a foundation I was excited and courage that I'm gonna help them by just donating the money that I saw on my grandparent's garage. 

This is my life

This is my Life

This photo is when my parents preparing for my first christening and they took a photo of me, I have no idea about what I was doing this time.

My mom holding me so tight that time and wanted me to sit on a jeep (It's a Philippines transportation).

This is my first Christmas, with my family but it's not really completed because my father is not there.

This is my first time that I hold a baby for my entire life and it's also my cousin.

At this moment I spend my last moment with my dad because he is going back again to South Korea to work.

On this photo It's my 7th birthday party.

As a part of a Philippine tradition, we always celebrate Christmas together but on this photo, we are not complete yet because my other cousins are on Guam.

On this photo, I think this is the best day of my life and unfortunately, kind of sad because this is the first time that we are complete as a family and also sad because after we have a small gathering my grandfather died.

On this photo finally, I graduated as a student at year 6.

This is the last photo that I have with my family before we move here in New Zealand.

King of Excuses

• Why your sibling is the most annoying creature on the planet

You're the one and only that I hate
You're making me always late
This is because you're always asking me for a help
Do I look like your slave? Or a maid

We should love each other
Not teasing other like other creatures out there
You make me feel that I'm the worse sister that you have
In your, life but you're the one who makes my life miserable

Should we always do this fight against each other for a nonsense reason
But I think sometimes you're the most annoying creature in the world
I think i just have to be thankful that your brother
Even though we fight you always save me if someone is bullying me
Care for me when i'm sick and love me always

Horror Camping Trip

We were all just having a great time, trying to scare each other and tell each other secrets. I couldn't believe what she told us none of us could believe. Most of us tried to understand it.

I was sharing a tent with Althea the girl who revealed her deepest and darkest secret. I guess you could say I was scared that time by what she had said and that I didn't wanna share a tent with her. After talking with her for a while we both decided we would go to sleep. I wipe off my fears and the horrible thoughts going through my head is crazy. I accidentally fell asleep

I think it was 3 hours into my sleep when I got woke up by some strange noise by outside. I listened carefully for about 10 minutes, it was so scary that time It came and then faded away. Strangely enough, it sounded like a baby crying. I wondered if it was one of the other girls that were camping with us but this sounded like it was a newly born baby, not some 16-year-old teenager. I peeped out my tent and saw nothing but darkness. I grabbed a flashlight and made my way out of the tent.

I was walking towards to others tent around on the camping spot I came to stop for a while when I saw a white figure it looked like a little just kneeling down. She wasn't facing my way but facing the trees. I stop for a second and trying to think that this is not a ghost. I ask myself to what Althea talk to me before. I quickly ran to go tell the others, as I ran back to their tents I heard some boys laughing behind me and footsteps getting faster and faster. I suddenly reached the boy's tent and I opened it up. They woke up with such shocked impressions across there faces. 

They didn't know what was going on, but they knew by my face that something was wrong. After five minutes I had told everyone what I saw. Most of them believed me apart from Stephen.

Show Don't Tell

Totally Unexpected

Meeting with our different two worlds

There is only one link

It sounds like the sound of it

Is not there enough pain and everything?

That I will never share with you

Your eye reveals you

Cries of love

Why not

The loss is missing

We hope that we can still see each other

From North to West

You are the destination of my life 

And as your refuge

I will rescue you

Where are you going?

Bare and mysterious

The storm of destiny is crazy

I'm bringing you the heat of my arm

Art Blog

She had a galaxy in her eyes, A universe in her mind...

In Art, we make some intaglio for the last week of term, btw what is different of lino-block printmaking or drypoint. Which did you prefer? Why? - Lino printing is a relief kind of printmaking then drypoint is an intaglio. But the most noticeable difference between lino and drypoint is the materials that we use, for example, the way we cut the plates and such. In lino printing, we use a lino-block, it's a hard material. However, in drypoint, we use plexiglass soft and smooth the lines and burr are very fragile too. Personally, I prefer doing lino. I felt confident doing them compared to drypoint because if you made a mistake in drypoint, you could find a way to get around it and fix it unlike in lino prints. You also need some skill if you're applying ink on lino.

Life After Technology

Life After Technology


Isn’t really a life at all because nowadays technology is life.
Why chat in person when I can chat online
After all, I have more friends on Facebook than I do in “real life.”

 Our world is so digital.
Critical thinking is no longer a necessity.Reality is now confined in an
Eighty inches by forty inch HD TV. We can’t see.
We are blinded by the light that comes from our phones. A home
Is now just a button we press. To escape the mess of a Multi-tasking establishment.

I fear that we will never hear the rustling of papers and leaves
Because we’ll be too busy typing away At our keyboards.
Before, children used to play outside, In the snow and in the sand.
But now, kids half my age Do those same things on an iPad.

Kids will never learn to surf the ocean waves
Because they’re too busy surfing from page to page
On the World Wide Web. It’s like a spider that has injected its venom,
A virus that’s crawling its way to our

God-given hard drive. We have forgotten what it feels like to live our lives offline.
We can no longer recall The sound of shoes against the asphalt
Because by the time we’re out the door, We’re already listening to our iPods.

 We only converse with Siri: “Speak to text”, “search the web”, “can you give me directions?”
I’ve shunned both Mother Nature and Father Time in the face.
But I can just face-time to replace The old-fashioned face-to-face social interaction
That my generation had erased from their lives.

We can no longer recall The sound of cracking branches before they fall
Because we’re too busy watching videos go viral. We tweet one another
More than baby birds tweet for their mothers. We stare into Windows and communicate through Apple
Instead of staring out of windows and giving each other apples.

 The mornings have gotten dark and cold,
But we’re too distracted by the apps on our phones. We’re mesmerized, hypnotized, satisfied
By a two-by-four block of metal that sits in our pockets. We settle for something that cannot love us back. Emotion is the one thing that technology lacks.

As humans, we were born with this quality,
But our brains have been programmed to believe. That technology is our reality.

Maybe this is the worst thing to have experienced in my life especially it’s on valentines. I’m Annika this might be the worst Valentine that I have experienced its when i was on the mall at 1:00 pm. I was going to meet with my best friends and we are going to celebrate Valentine’s day at the park. The park is the loving place we always go to. As I was waiting for them, somebody flicked my ear. What the hell? Who was it?. I turned to look who did that and I saw someone running away, which I supposed the person flicked me.

They made me run after them, but I’m metamorphoses. I only know that if I fall on you your definitely not going to the sky. I finally catch you, white mask and all, you bring with you the pain of all my other wives, and girlfriends. Now I’m going to give it to you. Zips are pulled down, and regret is not given.

He had tried but I was stubborn, He had tried so hard, I had to find something to teach this dude some manners, I had learned some fighting skills of a random old man in class a while ago and I had decided to try it. I had put all these skills to use and took his knife off him and started stabbing him, This was something he deserved I thought in my head I had wanted no one else to experience the pain.
