Xmas Bookmark

I wanted to make a new blog header but ended up with a bookmark! I've always had it in my mind to make a personalized bookmark and I was thrilled that it turned out to be fun and utterly satisfying! Merry Christmas everyone! :)

"CRUNCHY Mornin'"

I had a slice of toasted bread,
But I'd ran out of marmalade,
"I CAN'T eat this dry and plain!
I think I need some "CRUNCH" today!”
Sweet 'n salty it smells like home,
No it's not the honeycomb!
It's CRUNCHY peanut butter my friend!
And am sure it will never end!

It's been ages since my last post...been busy with assignments. I wrote this poem half sleeping last night!

Cheers :)

Marble-ous!

A Warm Birthday

The story goes that one cold and gloomy day, Salim went out for a walk thinking that the day couldn’t get any worse when it started to snow. “Ahhh…just what I needed! SNOW!” Shivering and grumbling, he continued his walk along the street. Suddenly something hard hit him on the head. “Ouch! What the…!” He looked down angrily for the thing that caused him such an unexpected pain when something else hit the top of his head…and another…and another…and another…and another…and another! Furious and with one hand shielding his throbbing head, he looked down again only to find seven highly polished and yet oddly-shaped purple marbles. They had two tiny eyes blinking cutely up at him and one smiling mouth. “MARBLE-OUS!” they exclaimed aloud. “Here’s our birthday boy!” It was then that Salim remembered it was his birthday. “Who are you?!” He asked stunned. “We…” squeaked the tiniest one, “…are Marble-ians and we pour down on lonely birthday boys ONLY!”

That night back home, Salim had a warm birthday party; one of the marble-ians baked a HUGE marble cup cake and lit one very bright candle on top of it. They all sang the birthday song and gave him tiny kisses on his cheeks. Hugging all seven Marble-ians, Salim had the warmest birthday party a lonely birthday boy can have!

.The End.

PS- Happy B'day our dearest Salim! Wish you all the best our Precious! :-)

It's been like ages since the last time I updated my blog and this post can't make up for it at all but what to do; I've been really busy recently and barely had time to do anything else. I don't want to admit it but sometimes even drawing and creating ain't fun no more! Anyways...it's just a practice with watercolor and color pencils. Am learning everyday...

Listen!

'Nother Year, 'Nother Birthday

Tonight it was a whole new experience...to be born again! For one thing there were only 4 attendees; me, my sister, my mom and my dad. The cake wasn't coated with cream but with honey and only one candle was there to be blown! Though it may sound depressing but we still had fun! About a week back I bought myself a great gift; "The art of Howl's moving castle"!

Well...happy birthday to me I think!

I have this prickling sensation; I guess am getting wiser each year! :-)
