Crafts by Me

By
You can reuse junk materials and make wonderful craft items out of them. Here are some things I made by using junk materials. Some of these are made of old things and I made some of them at a Summer Creativity Camp and some are my own ideas. These things may seem a bit childish, but they are fun to make, specially if you like creating things

 This is a 3D bird made from a paper plate. I took a paper plate and folded it in half. Then I painted it yellow and attached pieces of foam for feathers on one side. I made a head on paper and pasted it on the bird. 
I made this at the Summer Camp. 
This purple chair is made from a carton of  Milkpak. Does it seem like it? In a Summer Camp class, we all were given a carton of Milkpak and we had to make something out of it. For making this, I had to flatten the box and shape it like a chair. Then I painted it purple and decorated it a little. I attached straws for legs, (one is missing in the picture).
This is a slab pot. I made it from Potters' Clay. This kind of pot is made by cutting slabs of clay and joining them to make a shape like this. After it dried, I painted and decorated it.

    I like the way you painted the pot and I love the way you decorated the pot with gems. I love that
    you added leaves on the sides, and you painted the rim yellow. You also painted the inside a different color and I really love the contrasting colors!




    It is really creative how you transformed a boring milk carton into a bright, colorful, pretty, and maybe even comfortable, chair!

    The bird might look a bit childish to others, but to me, it looks like it should belong in a museum! The duck is really creatively made and I like the way you tipped the tail feathers with red.

Changes I would like to see in my country five years ahead

By
Hi readers! Here's another one of those essays that I mentioned I'd be sharing in here. This one was written on 12th April, 2016. The topic is mentioned below. Comments, feedback, and suggestions are very welcome! :) What changes would you like to see take place in your country in the next five years? Everything has some space for improvement, to strive to make it better, if not perfect. There are many changes that I would like to see take place in my homeland for it to improve. Firstly, I would like to see my country cleaner. The garbage disposal system of many places in Sindh, especially Karachi, which is the provincial capital, needs to be regenerated. The bio-degradable waste needs to be sorted and tackled accordingly, and the recyclable waste recycled. This change would not only be a relief to the common people, but also improve the country’s outlook. Secondly, I would like to see Pakistan greener than it already is. Although the province of Punjab, and Kash

Short Story~The Storm

By
Here is a story that I wrote recently on a topic of a past O level paper. Please keep in mind while reading it that this is the third draft  of the story. Feedback would be taken seriously and appreciated. An instantaneous splash of water landing on the deck woke up the sailor. He leapt out of bed and hurried up to the deck, hoping that all was well. The situation was worse than he had anticipated. It was raining cats and dogs, accompanied by a very strong gale. The roar of thunder indicated the beginning of a storm. The bottom of the ship was already flooded about six inches deep with water and its level was increasing with the rain. The sailor quickly rang the siren for help and grabbed some buckets. Sleepy-eyed men came out of their cabins to help and he directed them towards the flooded area, where he handed out buckets and yelled out instructions. His voice was barely audible over the heavy rain and thunder, but they seemed to understand. They went to work at once, fill

Poetry: To Dream

By
Hey there! I wrote a poem. This one took a lot more thought and effort than most of my poems - which are usually spontaneous, raw and emotional - that I don't post anywhere. I thought a lot about this idea and took almost a week to complete it. I also had to cut out several words, rearrange certain stanzas, and rewrite it a couple of times. I'm quite pleased with the result though - I think this is the best piece of poetry I've managed to write so far.  I would appreciate some feedback on it, if you have any, as I know this is far from perfect. Also, let me know if you have any suggestions for what kind of poetry I might write next. I could do with some new ideas. Here's the poem now: It is easy to dream When the eyes are closed -  When the mind is numb.  When there is no expectation Of life or living -  When there is no burden to carry.  But when the eyes are open -  And the mind can see What the universe has to offer. When the heart can feel,
