It was dinner time , we decided to go and have a nice meal.
“Let’s go to Zizi”. I said
“I prefer Tamatanga”. Norah replied
“What do you mean you prefer Tamatanga ? It’s MY birthday not yours!!” I answered sarcastically
“Actually I prefer Tamatanga too.” Dawlat said
On that moment I really started to get upset. “What’s wrong with you people ? It’s MY birthday for God’s sakes!!” I screamed
“Listen to me Doody, I swear Tamatanga will be better, It’s always busy at Zizi”. Samyah interrupted.
“You know what, I prefer to go to McDonald's!” I said in anger. LOL
“Come on, don’t be silly let’s go to Tamatanga. It’s going to be fun I promise”. Dawlat said.
We went to Tamatanga eventually. A lot was waiting for me there!
My friends had made a reservation at Tamatnaga that day for my birthday.
The staff were singing: “Happy Birthday Doody” from the moment we entered the restaurant!
They brought a big yummy chocolate cake and asked me to have a wish then to blow the candles.
I can’t describe how I felt. I was sOoOo Happy but yet soOoOoOoO embarrassed lol.
I had such a great time! My friends all came (well, most of them did) and it was such a fun and relaxing time!
it was neat to just sit at the table and look at all the people in my life who are now important to me that I didn’t even know a few months ago.
All in all, it was a super great day thanks to my great friends!
I can’t wait till my next birthday to see what unexpected things the next year will hold!
Aww lovely. What about other people who are eating at Tamatanga? How did they react?

ReplyDeletegood for u
Hey Ghadah, I'm reposting this (!) Well, it seems you had a great time, I wonder what the other diners were thinking? Can you imagine?
ReplyDeleteTask: Perhaps try this narrative from a 3rd person narrator viewpoint. How would this have appeared to other diners? Who might these diners be? What might be happengin in their lives? Would seeing you so happy, phave an effect on them? Write a response - dialogue / play or prose. Good luck!!!
Hi Ghadah - This is Bashair (I am using my brother's account since I don't have one). I read through your blog and it was rather delightful and cute. I am really impressed with your writing ability. I actually envy you for this valuable skill. I wish you best of success and hope that you thrive in your pursue of mastering this ability.
ReplyDeleteSincerely,

Thanks for your post Bashair, it's great that others are following Ghadah's writing! Ghadah please keep on track with the tasks - there are some on today's worksheet to post on the blog.
ReplyDeleteDid you have a look at 'The Secret Self?' I thought you might enjoy it, the stories are all short stories by female confessional writers or diarists, who employ a narrative style, like the one you are aiming to cultivate. Keep it up!
