*hello everyone

hope everyone is doing well.Today i want to share about a trip we had planing for such a long time.It wasn’t a sudden plan.Every few days we would say"Let’s go to ayub national park"but somehow it always got delayed.Still,the idea stayed in our minds.

I was personally the most excited because i really love animals.There’s something about seeing them,observing their little movement and just being around calm environment which has alot to do with my backgroung(kashmir afcourse).*

*we didn’t have many classes that day and honestly the temptation was so strong to ignore.so we decided to bunk the classes and finally make our long awaited plan happen.Sometimes the best memories come from most spontaneous decisions,right?

Around 11am,we booked a ride to ayub national park.We chose to go early so there wouldn’t be much rush and we could enjoy peacefully*

*As soon as we reached ayub park,we went straight to the ticket counter,bought our tickets and headed towards the jungle world.The entrance of jungle world was so cool we clicked some pictures there and the security guard was continuously waiting for us to check in.*

*we walked slowly towards the cages where different birds were kept.Each one had different colors,sounds and families.I admire nature and animals with my whole heart so i wasn’t just passing,i was thoroughly observing each one.*

*As we moved further,we reached the enclosure where the pumas were kept.Seeing them in real life felt completely different.There were two of them.one was lying down looking calm and being lazy while the other one is more active.

Pumas are naturally powerful and alert animals.They are known for sharp teeth,sharp senses and confident senses.The active one suddenly let out a roar,and it honestly gave us chills.The sound was so deep and echoed around the area.The area had many cages,properly secured and visitors had to observe animals from a distance.*

*Then we moved forward and there was another cage full of birds.They looked quiet fascinating.*

*Then bird in this above picture looks like a pelican which are basically water birds.They scoop up fish along water and they usually have peaceful nature.They are social birds and he was very social honestly

As we continued exploring,we came across a cage which claimed to be a wolf’s cage.We looked inside the cage but we didn’t see the wolf.Finally we spotted him lying on one side of cage.*

*We saw manyy animals.we saw ostrich,deers and different varieties of them.We also saw a markhor which are actually the national animal of Pakistan and usually found in mountainous regions and they are very good climbers*

*We also saw the bears but they looked skinny and sad.One of them was sitting quietly and other one was walking around.Seeing them made me realise how nature provide them with food,freedom and they hunt according to their natural instincts.I would love to see that natural ecosystem with my own eyes*

*At this point my friends were getting bored so they asked me to go on rides and swings with them but i have a serious motion sickness so i denied but my friend forced me to a swing which was basically moving round and round high in sky.

Then we also did a motion ride that i enjoyed alot.My friend was so scared.She looked so pale but we should always try new things so we did every possible thing during that time.We also drove bumping cars and it was so fun.*

*At this point we were so tired so we sat on a desk and started deciding what we want to do next.I really wanted to see parrots and snakes.At this point my friends were so sick of me cause the snakes were on the other side of park but we still got there and saw all of them.*

*At this point my phone was dead so i just saw them my eyes and they were huge.I saw python,cobras and many more.Then after a long day we sat near this beautiful lake for an hour and it was so calm there

we also saw many parrots,some monkeys,zebras so i am going to share all pictures that i captured of them*

*hello everyone.Hope everyone is having a great weekend.I am good too.

New semester just started from this week and due to some government holidays it was a very long weekend so i was free the whole time and decided to crochet a keychain for my new semester bag.

Guys i have started my 4th semester which sounds crazy to me.The time is passing real fast.I also have been on ecency for more than a year now.This platform really hepled me to improve my skills and built an audience.Anyways talking about the keychain,this is the keychain i was talking about*

*I wanted to make it with white yarn but i thought i should make it with yellow yarn cause it will not get dirty.Today was sunny,so i opened the window and started to crochet.I crocheted after a very long time so i was really enjoying myself.Let me tell you the steps of how i crocheted the keychain*

## *Steps*

*I started byy making the head first.The pattern was

*R1:6sc in MR

R2:6inc

R3:(sc,inc)*6

R4:(sc,inc,sc)*6

R5-7:24sc

R8:6sc,4inc,4sc,4inc,6sc

R9,10:32sc

R12:(sc,dec,sc)*6

fastens off*

*In the next step,i made the body.The pattern i used was

*R1:6sc

R2:6inc

R3:(sc,inc)*6

R4:(sc,inc,sc)*6

R5-7:24sc

R8:(sc,dec,sc)*6

*Then i attached both head and body with needle.I really dont like sewing at all.I patiently attached the parts and started on all the small components.*

*Then i made the cap,little wings and foot of the duck.I didn’t take pictures of those parts if you want the pattern of cap,let me know in the comments.

Guys i was so determined to complete this amigrumi in one go,i started it after lunch time and completed it without any break and then had dinner.My back was hurting so bad but i was so happy with how it turned out*

*When i was clicking the pictures i realised it was not doing justice to my project.I looked way better in real life.I am planning to crochet more.I really enjoyed my time crocheting.It stops me from overthinking stuff*

*I still have to add keyring to the duck but i will do it some other day.Anyways it was a fun project,i am also planning on making a beanie and muffler so stay tuned.

that’s all from my side.

take care.By*

*hello everyone .Hope everyone is doing great.I am back in this community after a very long time to share with you guys how snowy days are spent in kashmir.

I had a semester break and i was in kashmir.On a random day,we were visiting our relatives in trarkhal and in the morning i woke up to this view*

*I was so shocked cause it didn’t snow like that for almost 6years now so i was simply not believing my eyes.It was a mixed feeling cause my phone was almost dead and in snow there would be no power for days in kashmir.Anyways i slept for another 3hours and then wore the coziest outfit and a puffer and started the practical life.

First thing you do when it snows heavily is clean all the snow if you have a mud house.Me and my mum got ready and started helping our relatives to clean their roofs so the water will not seap inside the house.*

*After cleaning the rooftop,we were so tired and as we were about to finish,snow started again.Then we just left it and went inside cause we were so cold.Now it was afternoon and light was still gone.I was a bit frustrated.Then i joined my aunt to keep myself busy.She checked on all the animals and then she fed the pigeons,cleaned the cows and then she went out in snow to bring the food for the cows which we usually store outside in winters and cover it with plastic sheet.*

*We enjoyed alot in snow cause we awaited for this moment then the light was gone all light and it was snowing continuously so it was bit boring so we just sat in kitchen around fire and sang some songs.*

*Moving to day 2,the snow stopped,it was sunny outside but the snow gathered on groud was alot.It was more than foot tall.There was no electricity so staying inside rooms was very claustrophobic so we decided to do a little camp outside.We brought a little chimney with us and decided to make biryani there.Mu brother arranged the dryy wood and started the fire and i washed the chicken,rice and all other things.The weather was so nice.The snow was looking straight out of a disney movie.Everything was looking so good.*

*Then we played in snow but i didn’t capture alot cause i had limited battery.Then i did a little photoshoot and it was it for day 2 and still no power.*

*I prayed all night for power cause mu phone was basically working on my cousin’s laptop and now it was dead too but thankfully i had a good company all this time.Honestly staying away from your phone,social media was so hard then i realised how dependent we are on our phones.Anyways on day th

three,there was still no light so we ran out of clean water.My mother asked us to go and get some water from the natural water source near their home so we all picked our bottles and started our journey.*

*It was so slippery guys.we barely escaped from breaking our bones.All day i was praying for light,and when i reached home after fetching the water i saw the light and i was so happy the power was back.I charged all my gadgets and everything was looking morw beautiful now.

On the next day,we decided to visit my mamu’s home.He knew we were visiting our aunt so he arranged a dawat for us.The weather was nice but the snow was still there still we got ready and went there.*

*They own a very beautiful white cat so we also played with him and it was such a fun day.*

They also have a very cute baby so we played with him*

*I am posting this now cause the internet was very slow there anyways that how’s a real lifestyle from a mountainous area looks like.Hope you guys enjoyed reading my post

Here are some other pictures cause i clicked so so much pictures*

*that’s all from my side.

*Hello everyone. Hope everyone is doing great. I’m finally back in this community after a little break. Winter makes me want to sleep all day and cook yummy food all night,so here I am again*

*So I thought I should share some simple recipes with you all. This is a easy meal that helped me survive hostel life. Theare easy to make, don’t take much time, and still taste healthy and yummy. I hope they help you when you’re tired, busy, or just don’t feel like cooking a lot.*

## *Recipe*

*I started by cutting a tomato and carrot beacuse I eat alot of junk food so to make my meal more fulfilling and healthy I added a carrot and tomato.*

*Then I took a pot and added some water.Then I added my veggies and a small amount to the spice mix and let it boil so my vegetables can cook thoroughly*

*Then I added my noodles and let them cook for 5minutes.Meanwhile I added the whole spice mix so it can add flavour to my noodles*

*Instant noodles take only 5 minutes to cook and I don't like soggy noodles so I was checking them again and again so they will not overcook*

*I like my noodles with a half boiled cook.So In the other pan,I was cooking a egg on the same time.After my noodles were cooked,I added a slice of cheese and the half boiled egg on top*

*I don't add cheese normally and I like soppy noodles but I was craving something cheesy after scrolling Instagram reels.I tried my noodles and they were so tasty. You should try it for sure if you're a hostelite.*

*They were so yummy guys.Anyways that's all from my side. Plz ignore the fact that I was eating straight from the pan cause you need to save dishes.

That's all from my side.

*Hello everyone. It’s the weekend again, and honestly I’ve been doing nothing but sleeping out of boredom. So I grabbed my yarn to make the day a little brighter. Say hello to my new crochet project which is a little chick wearing a red cap*

*My friend was absent on Friday, so I didn’t get my usual yapping session, and now I have so much tea to spill. 😭

On top of that, I have 3 quizzes, 2 assignments, and a whole lab report waiting for me but I don’t feel like doing any of it.

So instead, here I am posting the second part of my saving series.

Friday is already the most boring day of my week, and one of my friends was absent, so it felt even worse. This semester, our classes got merged, and now C and A section are one. Honestly, some of those people are so immature and unethical that they make the whole environment stressful. Sitting through classes with them is so hard.

Anyways many things are doing on in my head.I want to buy new phone and I have alot more things to do in next month.I also have my terminals next month and I didn't perform well in mids so I am stressed. So I just crochet if you know you know*

*I did 6sc,inc,sc inc and repeated the same process for body.I did 5sc for bubble stitch.If anyone wants tutorial I will mention the link of video in comments so let me know*

*After completing the head, I made the cap and it’s bright red and I absolutely love how it turned out.

One of my friend’s birthdays is in December, so I’m planning to make her a Mikasu*

*Then I added the eyes and my chick was completed. I’ve been feeling so lazy these days. This weather just feels made for sleeping. 😴

So working on this little project actually feels productive, and I’m happy I at least did something*

*This is the final look. I hope you guys liked it. If you did, make sure to upvote and leave a comment.I would love to know what you think.

Anyway, that’s all from my side. Bye*

*Hello everyone. Hope everyone is doing great. I am doing good too. Today I am here with you guys to share the cheery keychain that I crocheted last night*

*I have Mondays off this semester, which means I get a long weekend every week. Yesterday, while I was sitting comfortably on my bed and enjoying the warm sunlight coming through the window, I suddenly felt inspired to make a cherry keychain. I’ve noticed many girls at my university using these cute keychains as bag charms, and seeing them always made me want one too. So I finally decided to try making it myself. It felt exciting to create something with my own hands, and it also fits perfectly with my goal of saving money so i am trying to post more and manage my expenses.

So let's start the making process.I started by making the cherries first.I did 8sc,inc then same 16sc till R5 then 2sc and dec and at 2nd last row 1sc and 1dec and lastly 8sc*

*Guys, I’m planning to buy a new phone, but I’m currently out of budget, so I’ve started saving up for it. Please upvote my post so I can earn a little from my posts as well. It would really help me reach my goal.

After making the cherries,I made the stems which was basically chain 56 and then I attached it to both the cherries.I am so bad with sewing so I used UHU which was bit messy but it's OK.

Then I made the flower which was chain 16 I guess then hd crochet,dc,hdc,sc,slst and repeat it 4times.*

*After that, I attached the flower to the stem, and just like that, my cherry keychain was ready. Honestly, it didn’t take me much time, but the final result looked so good that I felt really proud of it. I started taking pictures to show you guys, and in the middle of that, I accidentally dropped my phone—so now I’ll definitely never forget this keychain. It already has a memory attached to it.

And here's the final product*

*Hope you guys loved my post. That's all from my side.Keep supporting me.

That's all from my side.Byy*

*Hello everyone. Hope everyone is doing great. Today I am here to share with you guys my recipe for the restaurant style shawarma*

*Last weekend, I went to my hometown, and while shopping for my siblings, I came across some shawarma bread that looked fresh and was quite cheap. So, I decided to buy a few and planned to make shawarma.

In the village, we don’t have bakeries to buy fresh bread, so we usually have to make it ourselves. That’s why I thought using this shawarma bread would be more convenient.

Let me show you the recipe in steps now*

## *Step 1*

*I started by marinating the boneless chicken with some yogurt, red chili powder, a bit of soy sauce, and a pinch of salt. I wanted to keep it simple and give it a homemade touch.*

## *Step 1*

*Then I made the sauce using plenty of mayonnaise

some garlic

salt

bit of ketchup

and blended it all together.*

## *Step 3*

*Then I heated a frying pan and fried all the chicken pieces on low heat so it can be tender and juicy*

## *Step 4*

*Then I shredded all the chicken pieces so I can easily place them in my shawarma*

## *Step 5*

*Then I toasted the bread from both sides in a little bit of oil and then starting the layering process which is very simple and convenient.*

*Please excuse the rough pages I used for wrapping the shawarmas cause while e I was making the shawarma, the power went out, so I had to finish everything using a flashlight.I wanted to wait for the light to come back,but my family was so hungry.They all were waiting desperately for the shawarma so I clicked pictures in flashlight so they are not as perfect as I usually make.*

*I served them with the same sauce I made earlier.They were so yummy.Everyone enjoyed them alot.When you live in village,you have to make things on your own with avaliable material so this recipe was so easy and the taste was so good specially the sauce.

Anyways that's all from my side.Hope you guys liked my post.see you guys soon.

*Hello everyone.Hope everyone is doing great. Yesterday,me and my sisters went to experience authentic Turkish cuisine in Islamabad at Basha Istanbul.*

*It is located in f-7 islamabad.My older sister was in town for her MS test, and we were getting really bored in the hostel. We wanted to explore some new places, and our feed was full of posts about this café — its interior design, food, and overall vibe looked amazing. So, we decided to visit it.

We checked our wardrobe and picked out our outfits. We quickly got ready and booked a cab . it was about a 25 minute ride*

[//]:# (!worldmappin 33.71937 lat 73.05544 long d3scr)

*Our initial plan was to visit Mandi, which was located a floor below this place, but we ended up changing our minds. As we entered the building, we were immediately impressed by the beautiful interior.*

*As we entered the place, a staff member welcomed us and showed us to a table. It was a very formal dining setup, which I’m honestly not used to. I usually prefer casual cafés or takeout instead of sitting down for a formal meal. I have social anxiety, so I’m really trying to overcome it little by little.*

*We wanted to sit outside because the view was beautiful, but it was closed. Still, we really wanted to enjoy the vibe, so we asked them to change our table. They kindly agreed, and we moved to a cozy corner,perfect for us, since we had some tea to spill! ☕😄*

*Then we asked for the menu, but we were really indecisive about what to try. Before ordering the main course, I was craving something sweet, so I decided to start with a tiramisu.*

*It was my first time trying tiramisu, but honestly, it didn’t live up to the hype. I think I didn’t enjoy it much because I’m not a big fan of coffee,the flavor was a bit too strong for me.

Then we moved on to the main course. We wanted to try the lamb and their authentic platter, but we weren’t sure if we’d like it, so we decided to order a small one. While our food was being prepared, we clicked a lot of pictures and were really enjoying ourselves.*

*We actually liked the food a lot, but my big sister has zero spice tolerance, so she didn’t enjoy it as much. She kept saying, “I’m still hungry,” and honestly, she did not look happy at all.*😅

*To lift our mood, we decided to have a little photoshoot. They even had a separate spot for it, and it was absolutely beautiful. We clicked a lot of pictures and had so much fun! 📸✨*

*When we walked out, it was already dark. Everything looked even more beautiful and eye-catching under the lights*

*After we left, it felt like everything had already digested and we were hungry again. So, we headed to Cheezious, our most trusted spot , to eat in peace because we know we can always rely on their menu.😋*

*we ordered bihari roles there.We always order these roles and they are so yummy.We always go to Cheezious, but never at that location. we usually order from the one near our hostel. While waiting for our food, we started reviewing what we’d eaten at Basha Istanbul, and I gave it a solid 9 out of 10.*

*After enjoying our food, we strolled through the streets for a while before booking our ride back to the hostel. It was such a fun and refreshing day.*

*Overall, it was such a fun and refreshing day.We laughed a lot, explored new places, and made some lovely memories. Hope you guys enjoyed reading about our little happy day.see you soon in the next post.

By guys*

*Hello everyone.

Hope everyone is doing great.I am fine too.Today i am back in this community to share with you guys the cute parrot that i crocheted last night.

I had a really busy weekend.I had alot of assignments and quizes pending.I was really stressed out and luckily my university announced a holiday yesterday so i got some time to crochet a parrot.I have my mids starting from coming week so i am very academically stressed 😅 and i also want to visit my home this weekend hopefully i can manage a visit otherwise i will let you know guyz.*

*I was really indecisive about the color combo i want.I also didn’t have alot of yarn colors left so i just went with these colors peach and green and a bit of red too.

I started by making the body.Almost all of the heads for amigurumis follow same pattern so I didn’t have to write full pattern here.*

*I also ran out of my green yarn so i saved it for wings and used maron yarn to make the last 2 3 rounds.

I used green yarn for the body.I would have preferred some other color combo but I didn’t have many options so i worked with what i had on hand.

Then i made the wings of the parrot which was 6sc,6inc,1sc and 1inc then ch 2 and slst in 3rd stitch.I always do a mistake that i tighten one of the wing or leg more than other but i am really overcoming it so you can’t see it very pro

*Then i made the eyes,the mouth part and attached the wings by using UHU.The wings really completed the look.The color combo turned out pretty well honestly.I was not expecting it.Anyways here is the final look*

*I hope you guys liked it the way it turned out.

I really hope and try to crochet more and be more active.

Show your love and support to my posts.Feel free to share your opnion in the comments.

That’s all from my side.

Take care*

*Hello guys!

Hope you’re doing well today.I am fine too.It’s fall again.Time is passing so quickly you guys.Last year in this season,i was in my first semester and now i am half way through my third semester.It is quiet astonishing.

Anyways,my week has ended finally and today I had enough time to crochet.I searched my youtube and my feed was packed with the hallowen themed crochet so i selected a ghost to crochet and crocheted it.*

*The weather has changed and days feel shorter and air is cold.This season reminds me of the initial days of my hostel life and many more occasions that happened during this season.Some of them were quiet traumatising and some of them are good memories.

Anyways now talking about this ghost i crocheted,i made the cap first.While i was making the cap,my roommates asked me what i am crocheting and i told them i am making a horn in sarcastic way and surprisingly they do belived it.When the cap was completed,they asked me if it was really a horn and i laughed so hard and told them i am making a ghost*

*Then i started making the body of the ghost.The white yarn i used was 4ply and I used 3mm hook for it.This was my first time making a ghost so i was very excited.Firsly i made the body of ghost then filled it with polyester,then i did dc,hdc,hdc,dc and sc in the BLO to make those pipings sort of thing and then my ghost was almost complete*

*Then i added eyes and the final touches to my ghost.I attached the cap to the ghost and it is done.*

## *Final Look*

*This is the final look.

Hope you guys liked it alot.I am trying to be more consistent with my crochet but the academic stress is real this semester.

As the semester are moving forward,the hardship is also increasing.But i always try my best to keep up with everything.

Feel free to share your opinion in comments and do support my account.

Take care
