Group Story

 

Like the previous post that I've linked above

 this is a new story that we've written as a group

If your new to this then let me tell you what should we do.

We have to create a story containing the pictures that are given.

The pictures given are : 

- A Castle

- An Umbrella

- A glass of wine which we used as glass of water

- A Crying Lady

Late one night while the family was eating dinner in the castle, 

they heard someone knocking hard on the front door. 

The lady of the house ordered the servant to open the door. 

She saw a little boy fainted on the floor, soaked in rain water with a broken umbrella next to him. Suddenly the servant ran back to the lady and asked her to come with her to the door. 

The lady felt sad for him and told the servant to carry him inside the castle and get him warm. 

She stayed next to him till morning. After he woke up, she gave him some food and a glass of water. He told her his story, it was so sad that the lady started to cry.

ليسَ هُنالكْ أنصاف خَطايا،

وَلا أنصَاف ملذّات،

لِذلكْ لا يوجد مكانٌ ثالث بينْ الجنّة وَالنار،

  فعلينا تفاديا لِلحسابات الخاطِئة أن ندخُل أحدهما بجدارة.

Group Story

Hello again,

 

So today I'm going to show you some of our school work.

 

Hopefully you're going to see more of it in the future.

I know I'm late in posting thats kind of being a usual thing for regular readers of this blog.

 

But I'm really trying my best to manage my time to post when I can or at least prepare a post and time it.

 

So let me tell you what we do in Group Stories :

 

We have to create a story containing the pictures that are given.

We are usually a group of 3 or 4.

And we have to use all of the pictures but in any order we choose.

Also sometimes we need to use some grammer structures that were given.

 

Lets start!

 

The pictures given are :

 

- A Gun

- A bunch of flowers

- A Spider

- A house near the ocean

 

One day as I was passing by a house near the ocean,

 I saw a guy asking for help.

I was scared when I saw him because he was drenched in blood.

Apparently he was in a gun fight.

Although I was terrified by the way he looked,

I quickly called the police for an ambulance.

After 15 minutes an ambulance arrived and took us to the hospital.

As soon as we arrived at the hospital,

the doctor took him to surgery to remove the bullet.

I bought him a bunch of flowers to give to him when he came out.

When I gave him the flowers,

he screamed as loud as he could and threw the flowers on the floor.

All the doctors and nurses gathered to see what was wrong.

Apparently there was a huge spider on the flowers.

Now the spider was injured too and I got thrown out of the hospital.

Quote of the week

We all die. 

The goal isn't to live forever,

 the goal is to create 

something that will.

Off to Australia p4

Off to Australia p3

So here we are again. 

Heading to Australia, Melbourne Tullamarine Airport to be precice. 

In this flight I didn't get any sleep 

Instead I watched couple of movies

First movie was : 

Pitch Perfect

That was ok Not a must to see -.-

And the second movie was :

The Odd Life of Timothy Green

Now that movie I liked 

It had a nice story

And interesting to watch.

Of course they brought us meals that I don't remember now :p

But they were all delicious.

Including the snacks.

When the movies were over 

Not much time was left to see another movie.

So I just watched some TV series like : 

Friends 

2 Broke Girls

The big bang theory

And some disney series as well

We arrived earlier than expected to Melbourne

I think the flight was meant to be there at 8:35 AM

And we landed at 8:05 AM

If I wasn't mistaken.

Any ways before we land they gave us this yellow slip of paper.

An English one .. but this is an arabic one for the arabic readers :p

And the future Scholarists ;p

We finally got off the plane.

We went and took our luggage.

Guides and Help are all over.

And also there are some people who come and ask you if you have any food

or anything from the list that you checked in.

And after that they stamp on your yellow card.

Long line to wait until our turn is up.

After the Australians were in they opened another path for us 

Now any citizen could go to national or the Australian row.

They ask you couple of questions like the one  

written in the card.

Compare your passport pic to you :p

And let you in.

If you had an online passport that didn't show.

They take you to a counter next by them just to check and then let you in.

On your way out of the luggage and passport area they take the yellow card from you.

If you need any help you could ask the counter with the volunteers 

They are actually for universities but they come and ask you 

If you need any help or assistance even though your not a student.

After that we bought a sim card and went for breakfast at Nando's 

until the bus came since I need to go to 

Bendigo Airport Station

After we finished eating breakfast.

We went just out the airport to where the bus is going to come and waited there.

The Bendigo Airport Station Bus arrived

We bought a ticket and off we went.

It was a 2 hour trip till the station.

The bus driver called a taxi so we could go home.

Yaay finally arrived.

Took a shower to freshen up.

Then went out to open an account and enroll at Tafe.

Then home to sleep !! 

That's all folks ;p

كتاب يستفزك للانتهاء منه بجلسة

ان تلتهم حروفه و تسبق السطور للنهاية

استغربت من عدم وجود اسماء في القصة نهائياً

قد يكون هذا الشيء مربكا احيانا

لكن نجح الكاتب فيها في هذه القصة

على الرغم من ان القصة بسيطة

الا انني احببتها و استمتعت في قراءتها

Quote of the week

In order to have wisdom we must have ignorance. 

Theodore Dreiser 

عيناها

اسم الكتاب : عيناها 

للكاتبة : علياء فاضل الكاظمي 

الطبعة الرابعة 2011
عدد الصفحات : 248

من مكتبة جرير 

الكتاب عبارة عن مجموعة قصصية 

احتوى الكتاب على 40 قصة قصيرة 

النبذة من خلف الكتاب هي عبارة عن

الصفحة الاخيرة من القصة الاخيرة 

و التي بالمناسبة القصة نفسها التي كتبت عنوانا للكتاب 

"عيناها "

و هذا الغلاف من الامام و الخلف : 

أما رأيي في الكتاب 

فقد خاب ظني كثيرا 

قرأت من قبل سنة تقريبا كتاباً اخر لها و برايي كان أفضل

فهذا الكتاب على الرغم من احتوائه على عدد كبير نسبيا من القصص

و بعض القصص التي لا بأس بها 

لكن هناك قصصا جعلتني امل من القراءة 

و نهاياتها لم تعجبني على الاطلاق

و كانت كذلك قصصا لا بأس بهم كـ : 

الواسطة 

لمياء عبدالسلام

عيناها 

و هناك غيرهم ايضا لكن فضلت ان اكتب ٣ اسماء فقط 

شيئا اعجبني بالكتاب ان الكاتبة استوحت بعض القصص من الواقع

بالنهاية كان الكتاب لا بأس به و مجهود يشكر عليه

Off to Australia p3

Off to Australia p2

So Here we are again 

The plane landed at Dubai 

We have 3 and a half hours to spend in the airport

It looked different to me since I haven't been to Dubai airport since summer 2009-2010 

After 9th grade I mean

We had to check in to get our seat numbers at first 

After that we had a look around.

Went to duty free and bought a magazine and a book I'll be writing my feed back about after I finish reading it.

Almost an hour or so left for the gate to open.

So we went to sit near the gate.

Chatted a little with friends and family.

Then time to go in ;p 

Went in .. sat a little until the crew started to call us by the order of the seats.

We're in :P 

EK - 404 -

Dubai to Singapore/Melbourne (Australia)

About 17 hours

I don't remember what meals they gave us exactly but they were all good ;p

And the snack I don't know about because I fell a sleep after the first meal xD 

First I finished watching :

Here comes the boom 

It was good I guess.

After that I watched Hotel Transylvania

I liked it .. It was pretty funny !

I woke up couple of times because of the annoying kid who wouldn't stop crying !!

Then after 5 hours - I think-  I was really up

Ate lunch I guess and rewinded the rest of the film that I slept while it was running xD

The flight was about 10 hours 

I got a gift in that flight as well ;p

I was still dizzy when a cute girl from the crew came to wish me luck in my studies.

Apparently she was talking with my mom when I was  a sleep.

She said goodbye as we were going out.

As well as the young man from the crew

After that we had to stop at Singapore airport.

They let us down to clean the airplane and change the crew

So we went out into the airport 

Got into the rest rooms to freshen up.

I've noticed they had recycle bins that looked amazingly interesting.

Unfortunately I forgot to take a picture of them.

But I found the pic in google :P

I liked the idea of it.

After maybe 30 min the gate opened again

They asked us to show our visa with the passports 

And Off we went ;p

Next Post 

The rest of the Flight 

And 

Hello Australia ;p
