Egypt: Day 1

We meet our personal guide, who accompanied us to visit Giza. We visited one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, the Great Pyramids of Cheops,Chephren and Mykerinus, Famous Sphinx, and Valley temple, Egyptian Museum, Treasure room of king Tutankhamen. Continue to Coptic Cairo to visit the Hanging Church and Ben Ezra Synagogue. Then we continued driving to Islamic Cairo's old bazaar.


Egyptian Museum:

 There are seven sections in the Museum:
  • The first section : Tutankhamon's treasures.
  • The second section : the pre-dynasty and the Old Kingdom monuments.
  • The third section : the first intermediate period and the Middle Kingdom monuments.
  • The forth section : the monuments of the Modern Kingdom.
  • The fifth section : the monuments of the late period and the Greek and Roman periods.
  • The sixth section : coins and papyrus.
  • The seventh section : sarcophagi and scrabs
The Egyptian antiquities were really detailed and beautiful. By the, detailed drawing, it looked like the Pharaohs were very ambitious and hard-working. 
I even saw many mummified mummies and animals.


The Great Sphinx of Giza:

 Its a mythical creature with a head of a human and body of a lion.

The Void:six

-sometimes the darkness knows what I feel - He wanted her, he wanted to let her know that he cared; that he   loved   her. He would die for her, if it meant that she wouldn't be bullied. Her looks never mattered to him, it was her smile, her laugh, her personality was what attracted him the most , because outer beauty didn't mean anything to him, it was what her scared skin held underneath; a beautiful girl who didn't know that she meant something to someone. someone who would die over a hundred times just to see her be happy. The boy wouldn't stop talking to her, he would always be with her and to make thing even worse, he lives right next door. but he made her smile; made her feel happy; and feeling that she hasn't felt since her parent died. she never felt like this before. she felt love. but she was scared, what if it  mended her broken pieces, only to leave them shattered when he leaves her. she wants to let him go but she was afraid that if she let...

Talent Show

It was a hot day, in PIE ( Pondok Indah International School). My school was gigantic like a herd of elephants. On friday afternoon , I was on my way to my P.E class. Suddenly a loud voice from behind, GAYATRI, GAYATRI. It was my friend, Sanya shouting to wait for her. Sanya ran as fast as she could and reached my pace . She couldn’t wait to ask me ”Are you doing something for the fantastic, amazing talent show? ” WHAT TALENT SHOW , WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT ?” I asked her ignorantly.  Sanya was stunned, that I didn’t know about the talent show, she eagerly shared that it is a show where you present your talent to the audience . OHH thats what a talent show is, thinking in my brain. “ Gayatri we have to practice for our dance also, my mom is going help us with the dance” added Sanya. “Is someone else, doing the dance with us?” I asked. “Yes, the queen of dancing Jia Thadani (Jia) is doing it too.” Chimed Sanya. “You have already asked Jia, if she wants to do the t...

The Void: seven

Monsters don't sleep under your bed, they sleep inside your head. After that night she went out, determined to prove them wrong,prove them wrong ,that she can be pretty, she  will   be pretty and nothing will stop her. But there was a voice in her head, telling her not to follow the path, not to become like them. But she ignored, she was sick of being made fun of, sick of all those people talking about her; talking about her flaws. She wanted to show them how beautiful she is, that she can hide her scars and be beautiful, she just wanted to be  loved  and  adored .  The next day, he felt his heart shatter. The girl he loved, the girl he stood up for had changed. She wore  makeup,a nd what hurt him more was she didn't give him a second glance, not even the smile she used to give. No, she walked right past him and into the arms of the bully, but what she did next killed him; killed every single piece of him.   she kissed her  bully ...
