16 Hours nonstop
Garam anday Garam anday(boiled eggs)-It all started around 3:20 when I reached the train station. It was a really good day and were leaving for Lahore by we I mean five of my friends and my guardian sir babar with his family. The train was suppose to depart at four pm and my friends reached there a half and hour early just like me and was the time to be there before the train leaves the station. Eventually i said my goodbyes to my brother and dad that came to drop me at the station and departed for Lahore.
I had lots of fun with my friends. We ate biryani for dinner with drinks, the biryani was awesome my friend Sheryar brought it but Isam, Saad (friends) and I only ate the biryani. We finished eating around eight pm and started preparing for the long night sleep. I choose to sleep on the right middle berth. It was not as cold as I imagined it would have been from my last experience, I slept in a sleeping bag it was quite comfortable.
I woke up in the morning seven thirty approximately and had a good night sleep. It had been twelve hours since the train departed from Karachi and four hours still left to reach Lahore. Saad and
Isam were awake till two am and were tired in the morning. only me, Saad and Sudais ordered breakfast. Others ate what they brought from home except for Isam he didn't had breakfast. For breakfast we had two slices of bread, an omelette, jam, butter and tea . As soon as we filled out stomachs with food we reached Lahore one hour later. Packed our suit cases and gave it to the pulley, took our stuff to the car and.............
That's it for sixteen hours stay tuned for more the trip isn't over yet.

CATACOMBS
A unusually big skull from the roof was hanging, the man did not look and got hit on the head by the skull and died. So now there were eleven. Every one was inquisitive of what had recently happened. Everyone's heart was trembling, they all were sinking in fear, eventually they buried him and went on to get out. They stopped for a break and let the guide remember. A women tried to explore the area and ultimately she got lost and then there were ten. The pressure on the guide was building up on how to get them out. The people started blaming the guide that he brought us here and this is his fault we are lost. One of them disagreed and told everyone that blaming is of no use, we have to find our way out. The guide was extremely worried that the fuel would finish. As they moved forward they saw an astounding design of skulls and bones lined up beautifully and beside it there was daylight coming in from up top, one of them said"this is our way out" and as they turned to look at each other with hope five of them disappeared. They made a run for it and only five escaped from the catacomb.

AN UNFORTUNATE DAY
I entered the bathroom there was a power cut and all of a sudden it all went taupe.It was 5 am in the morning. As i reached for my tooth brush i accidentally dropped a mug and it shattered. a voice came from downstairs, i was inquisitive to hear that voice. It was my moms voice. i came out from the bathroom she looked at me and went downstairs to make breakfast. Any ways i got ready for school and came downstairs and saw the usual, my dad reading newspaper and my mom cooking. As i sat down on the chair i fell down. When my mom came to help me she also dropped a vase, what an unfortunate day! i said to my self.my mom brought me breakfast it was a fried egg and bread. I started sprinkling pepper and the cap loosen and all the pepper fell into my plate.
I entered the school bus and left for school, we were half way there when the tire got punctured. I grunted as i looked down and realized that i was wearing two different socks and my shoes were not even polished.
When i reached school and looked at the reception clock and saw that i was thirty minutes. I was stealthy trying to reach my desk when my English teacher caught me,what i terrible day i said to my self. She took me out of the class and rebuked me of coming late into the class. my teacher had a sardonic attitude. i was scared that she would take me to the principal, the student call the principal a tyrant but thank god the teacher did not take me there.
I reached home had lunch and decided to take a nap when suddenly there was a power cut.

THE PARK AT NIGHT AND DAY
At Sunday i had planned to go to the park, so i woke up early in the morning. It was a beautiful day. I had done my breakfast and was on my way to the park.
The park was a five minute drive from my home. When i reached the park, i got out of my car and entered the park. The weather was a bit chilly, i felt a cold chill run down my spine. The park was lovely, i could hear birds chirping and butterfly's fluttering past me. I could see the dew dripping from the leafs, i sat down on a bench and took off my shoes the grass felt wet because of the dew it felt relaxing. The smell of the flowers was all around the park and it smelt great. How the gardeners trimmed the hedges it was magnificent. I love this park because all of the things are natural even the walking track was made up of grass. I could see many kinds of birds and the environment of the park was so refreshing that it relaxed me so much.
After sitting some time i got my shoes on and walked towards the fountain. The fountain was made up of the finest wood and where the water came out from, it was carved into dolphins that let water out of there mouth it was one of the things i had never seen in the parks nearby parks. And now it was time to go home.
I had planned to go at night as well so i left my house at 8:16 pm. I reached the park at 8:22 pm. I entered the park and family's were leaving. The park was very quiet i hear insects like the cricket making sound or the sound of people talking and kids playing. The spotlights had opened and a cold breeze made me shiver. The wind made the trees move which made the leafs make clattering sounds. The birds were flying away to there homes because it was getting dark.
It was 10:00 pm it was time for the park to close so we all had to leave. I reached my house, made a cup of tea and changed my cloths. I went to bed and slept because i was really tired after a long day.
