Lili’s Time Capsule by Liliana Shaw https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh en-us 2020-04-21 15:09:25 UTC 2025-09-26 18:27:31 UTC hello@padlet.com I Don’t Know My Name by Grace VanderWaal pl217682 https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/521476633 I received a ukulele, so I can learn to play during these uneventful times. ]]> 2020-04-21 21:43:53 UTC https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/521476633 Frappuccino pl217682 https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/527162165 Because we are avoiding leaving the house and  are mainly having home-cooked meals, we haven’t had any Starbucks. This morning, I made my brothers and I Starbucks’ Frappuccinos. ]]> 2020-04-24 00:34:57 UTC https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/527162165 Meme pl217682 https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/527165849 I found this meme funny, for it accurately depicts what people value. Originally, Airpods were the “cool new thing.” Now, hand sanitizer is rare to find and sold for high prices. ]]> 2020-04-24 00:38:19 UTC https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/527165849 Social Media - Ben Platt pl217682 https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/532035169 Every Saturday, my favorite actor and singer who happens to be my idol, Ben Platt, sings a song. He does it as entertainment during quarantine.]]> 2020-04-27 00:02:29 UTC https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/532035169 Sunday, April 26, 2020 pl217682 https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/532056008 On Friday, April twenty-fourth, it was my friend Irene’s birthday. A few of my friends, including my two best friends Cristina and Daniela, all participated in a surprise zoom call to celebrate with her. We chatted and my friend Anya and I showed everyone our instruments. Anya has a ukulele and guitar, and I have a ukulele. The zoom program allows the participants to change their backgrounds. As a joke, I changed mine to Bertram from Jessie, who happens to be trending all over TikTok. After changing it to Bertram, some people decided to change their backgrounds to their celebrity crush. I made mine David Corenswet, my celebrity crush who plays River in the fabulous Netflix series, The Politician. The Politician tells the story of a young boy named Payton, played by Ben Platt, who runs for his class president. The series makes fun of current politics with its over-the-top drama and exciting events. Daniela and I had a sleepover once and we watched The Politician. It was my second time watching the show and Daniela’s first. She loved it! I miss all my friends and can hopefully have a sleepover with them after quarantine. Still, we FaceTime often and do Netflix parties. Netflix party is a Google extension that allows friends to watch movies together and chat in a chat room. On Thursday, April 23, Daniela and I did a Netflix party and the movie was horrible! It was about this girl who is about to get married but her fiancé cheats on her. So, to show to her dad that she is responsible, she makes this guy pretend that he is her fiancé. It was terrible. It made me realize something: I miss my friends! ]]> 2020-04-27 00:23:05 UTC https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/532056008 FaceTime Drawing pl217682 https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/532099928 This drawing portrays a FaceTime call between me and one of my close friends, Hayley.

He went in for a heart surgery and he didn’t attend his grandfather’s birthday celebration. I have a feeling that he isn’t dead. If he is, we probably won’t find out for some time. Not only will North Korea be affected, but the United States as well. ]]> 2020-04-28 12:54:25 UTC https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/536243446 Torres!

One of which details the story of a man who won lottery money twice in a row. I found this story to be a breath of fresh air from all of the morbid corona articles. It reminded me of how whenever my grandparents would come down from New York. My grandma would take me to Publix and we would get a lottery ticket. She would let me pick the numbers and keep any money (if it was below one hundred dollars). We planned to win big and split the money. However, the most that we have ever won is seven dollars.

However, some of her answers were very bare. Alas, she took pleasure in being interviewed, so I continued.
Me: What made today special?
Her: I dyed Lili’s hair.
Me: What are you craving today that you can’t have/get/do because of the shelter-in-place? 
Her: To shop in a store.
Me: You are very specific.
Her: K’.
Me: Does this quarantine make sense? Please explain.
Her: Yes. Um... Can I read what someone else wrote because I thought he wrote it very well?
Me: Yes
Her: Okay… Ummm. (She pulled out her iPhone).
“I don't live in fear of the virus. I just want to be a part of the solution, not the problem”
Me: What are you grateful for today? 
Her: My family.
Me: Elaborate.
Her: Ummm.... I enjoy getting the time to relax with my family and not have to run out and drive everyone to different activities.
Me: How is today different from other days of quarantine?
Her: Well, my sewing machine broke so I couldn't make any masks today... and I was on a roll.
Me: What does your family need today that you might not have/have enough of/ have the ability to acquire? 
That question really made her think.
Her: Hmmmmm. Ummm
She sighed.
Her: It is a very difficult question. Dad (as referring to Lili’s dad) gave the boys (Lili’s brothers) hair cuts and they look funny.

I initially thought that my mom allowed me to dye it because of quarantine and that we would be staying indoors. However, she revealed to me that when she watched the Stephen Sondheim tribute, Neil Patrick Harris’s daughter had blue hair. She figured that if Neil Patrick Harris could let his daughter dye her hair blue, so could she. Thus, we dyed my hair a blue color that slightly looks black. I love it! I never thought my mother would allow me to dye it. Thanks, Neil! ]]> 2020-05-04 01:50:30 UTC https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/547925767 Monday, May 4, 2020 pl217682 https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/550790054 On Saturday, I made bread. It was a very simple recipe, for all that is required is flour, salt, yeast, and water and the only steps are to mix the ingredients, let it rise for two hours, and bake on an oven stone for forty minutes. There was left over dough, and today, I decided to make more bread. The bread was much more delectable today than it was on Saturday. The outside was perfectly crunchy where the inside was doughy and delicious. My father, who was a big critic of the last bread, said that this was the best bread of the household. Quinn, my little brother, loved it and ate the rest of it at dinner. Tonight’s dinner was delicious. During this past winter break, my two best friends, Daniela and Cristina, and I attended a cooking event where we made numerous dishes. One of which was honeycomb pasta, which was like lasagna but using rigatoni standing up. I suggested that my mom make it for dinner and she did. It was marvelous! However, I doubt she’ll ever make it again, for it took two hours to make. Nevertheless, it was fabulous and one of the best quarantine dinners yet.

Though this TikTok has nothing to do with the coronavirus, I found it very comical.]]> 2020-05-05 00:02:01 UTC https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/550800427 Interview with my little brother, Quinn Shaw pl217682 https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/550842534 My next victim was my little brother, Quinn, who acted like he did not enjoy being interviewed. However, I think he secretly loved it. 
Me: How does this coronavirus influence your life?
Him: It made life different. Now, I don’t do soccer practice, have online school, and a different schedule. 
Me: What made today special?
Him: Ummmm... meeeee... getting... me getting to play poker. That was fun. Me getting more time to play with the pups
What are you grateful for today?
Him: Today?
Me: Um hmm.
Him: My dogs, my family, poker, my trampoline, soccer, us being lucky enough to have a backyard, our house, and my iPad.
Then, I decided to become more informal with the questions.
Me: How’s life?
Him: Ummm…. school life is better, easier, more fun since it is more relaxing. It’s worse since I can’t socialize with friends. I can through FaceTime but it’s not really realistic. Ummm... life’s better in some ways and worse in other ways. Some things have changed for the worse some things have changed for the better.
Me: What do you miss most?
Him: Socializing with my friends, with everyone. But some things that others miss I don't really. I miss the old school schedule. My new one is soooo bad. They added an extra hour to my schedule.
Me: If you could stop corona, would you?
Him: That’s a good question. Well.... there's some things that I like about this. I would because I don't want anyone else having it (the coronavirus). But if I didn’t think about other people's perspectives. But since I am, I would stop it.

Though I’m slightly skeptical about that, I find it shocking. There was an Instagram post that talked about how time went very slowly in March, but in April, it went by in “eight minutes.” I agreed, for the only events of April I remember are my puppy’s, Torres, first birthday and April Fools. For April Fools, my older brother, Wylie, and I had hung comical photos around our house. It was nothing inappropriate, mostly of political figures that my parents dislike. One was edited to look like the boy from Disney’s Up. So, I hung that from the fan in our living room. We were so excited. However, my mother ruined the plan by taking down most of the pictures. She criticized us for wasting paper, but my dad reminded her that it was April Fools and no big deal. That day, my little brother tried to prank me by knocking on my door and running away. To get my evil revenge 😈, I slowly crept to my door. Not a sound was heard. Then, I silently twisted my door knob and screeched, “RAWWWWW!” Quinn, standing outside the door, screamed! It was hilarious. Though I know that my family has been going crazy in quarantine, there have been some fun moments. ]]> 2020-05-05 21:55:07 UTC https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/553335076 Tiger Dog! pl217682 https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/553354424 During quarantine, the Netflix show Tiger King has become very popular. It details the story of cats, murder, and so much more. A woman named Carole Baskin is in the show. I drew a picture of my dog Torres as Carole Baskin because I thought it would be comical and I was bored. ]]> 2020-05-05 22:10:36 UTC https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/553354424 Dear Future Self... pl217682 https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/553369808 2020-05-05 22:23:07 UTC https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/553369808 Interview with Dani pl217682 https://padlet.com/pl217682/i7m9v7wb2ij9eddh/wish/553539097 My final interview was with my fellow Leo and one of my best friends Daniela. As I like to call her, Dani.
Me: How does quarantine impact your life?
Her: I cannot go anywhere except my house. I’ve gotten more focused on school and music. It’s kind of a positive experience even though I miss social interaction.
Me: Is there anything open in your neighborhood?
Her: No, everything is closed. But there are these people that have golf carts with lights that have music. And there are people walking.
Me: What made today special?
Her: Today was the first day with a new schedule.
Me: How’s life?
Her: It’s actually pretty good. I’ve started eating healthy, working out, and I feel good.
Me: What's your least favorite thing?
Her: That’s hard…. well.. I guess that I miss social interaction a bit. But also… I don’t know. I think that's it.
Me: What are you grateful for?
Her: Music because I’ve been singing all day. My family because I wouldn't be able to quarantine by myself.
Overall, Dani was a joy to interview. She gave extra details, unlike my mother, and allowed me to take my time, unlike Quinn. I’ve come to a conclusion: quarantine is starting to become the new normal. Everyone is finally situated. I think that after quarantine is over, people will struggle to get back into the flow of things.
