Flat or Round Character
Aminah is a round character, because she is unpredictable- you never know, whatever she might

do next. She's also very different, because instead of being greedy, as most humans could she uses many of

her wishes to save humans with kind hears in need. She isn't a character you would expect to do the normal

things.

In the far away, ancient cities of Al-Ka'Las, a young homeless girl named Aminah went to the

royal princess, Badr-Al-Budur, for money. She was usually against begging, but she felt that she had no

other choice. But instead of revieving the dinars in return, she had found a cold-stone, instead of a heart.

The Princess threw her husband Aladdin's Badr-Al-Budur's golden lamps, at Aminah. Leaving a star-shaped

scarAminah fell unconcious. When she awoke, she quickly recieved the lamps, wishing that if she rubbed it

hard enough, she could perhaps sell it for a few dinars. She rubbed the brass lamps, when suddenly, puffs

of lilac-coloured smokes surrounded Aminah. It turned into this magic demon, otherwise known to her, as

the magic genie. The genie was clever and sneaky, but eventually Aminah figured how to wish, without

turning her wishes against her, since the genie would always trick his master, into wishing for something

that would automatically go wrong, in one way or others. Soon enough, though, Aminah and the magic

demon, had become good friends. Together, the genie, and Aminah, make the world the better place one

wish at the time. On Aminah's special journey to save those in need, she meets some new people. First, she

meets young Idris, a man who homeless, on the streets of Al-Ka'Las, as Aminah once was, also her

conditions. He had feelings for young Aminah for the very start, and Aminah quickly gave him the job, as

her bodyguard for the time she remained inside Al-Ka'Las; With the genie's magic on Aminah's side,

Aminah has discovered the newly-found wealth that he'd given to her, where she can give money to Idris

for the horses he's always wished for, and more. Then, Aminah finds Barra, who ends up to become

Aminah's new chef of the houses.On the outskirts of the cities of Al-Ka'Las, Aminah and her brand-new

family, happily do many things together, but, while Aminah wishes to other people, she also has the

dangers of Princess Badr-Al-Budur searching for her haunting her every moment. And, Idris had said that

he's previously seen some people lurking around the house's territory, so she's always having to be on her

guard, and also, to protect her new family with still being mysterious, and being careful to avoid revealing

any of her secrets. And with the princess still searching for her, everywhere in Al-Ka'Las, Aminah decides

that it would be fair to summon the genie from his lamp for a while, and allow him to visit her house, as her

Uncle Omar. Suddenly, the genie has transformed from a purple, magical demon, into a soft-looking, older

man. With kind manners, and the skills for chess, he teaches Aminah's new family how to play the game.

And with him there, she would be able to keep her new family safe, from any of the harm's way the

princess's guards might bring her somedays. Meanwhile, Princess Badr-Al-Budur, is getting closer and

closer, to the lamp's powers. She then knew about the lamp's magic powers, and had now desired it, more

than ever before. She sent out the captain of the guards, Saladin to retrieve every single girl, by the name of

Aminah in the cities of Al-Ka'Las. Since the captain of the guards was madly in love with the sadly greedy

princess, he would obviously obey her every wishes. He had captured many Aminah's, but none of them

were the actual girl. Saladin took Badr-Al-Budur, down to the prisons, where she's never been before. And

seeing how terrible things she could make them turn out to be, she has ever since become, even more evil-

ish. Then, while Aladdin and the princess where speaking privately about the magics, Saladin ended up to

be eavesdropping all the time they were discussing. Apparently, Aladdin had used the lamp to become the

prince; he was just like young Aminah, before that. He wished the genie to make him wealthy, so that he

could marry princess Badr-Al -Budur, but soon he found out, that she was only the most wicked woman in

all of Al-Ka'Las. When Saladin steps in, after eavesdropping, he suggests to the princess, that when she

finds the magics, that she wishes to become the sultan, because without the genie's magic powers, she

wouldn't ever be able to, for she was the princess; and you couldn't be the female sultan. But, Saladin was

suggesting, that since her father, the sultan, was actually passing away- she could wish to rule, and make

Saladin her advisors. Now that genie has warned Aminah about the princess's plots, she disguises her name,

as Miss Zubaydah. But soon, Aminah and her brand-new family, was found anyways. The Princess has

come to Aminah's houses, where they threaten them. Aminah uses the genie's magic to protect them,

where they fly to the farther lands, and they are always safe together- Aminah tells them about her

mysterious secrets, and they are happily together, with the genie as Uncle Omar, where they're in the

Arabian sea together, and as a happy family, always with each others.

Winter Break
The environment is important. It's cold outside, and I didn't want to be in the streets. It's winter

break. I feel like I'm growing larger and larger, surrounded by the little kids running around me, and the tiny

flakes of snow, tangling in my hair. I walk in the shedd aquirium, downtown chicago. Nervous that this

museum was going to bore me, I walk into the shark's exhibits. With the kid's squished faces pressed

against the glass of the already, finger-print smeared fish tanks, I start taking pictures of the animals, over

their tiny heads. Suddenly, I notice the baluga's exhibits. I walk over, enchanted by the graceful, white

creatures. Studying the signs, I notice that there are many problems, as to why theses beautiful creatures,

manetees, and plenty others, are nearly extinct. I stare at the very pretty creatures. After the museum, I

met up with mom, at an interesting restaurant, named Niu. Seems very Asian. I sit at the bar with my mom.

They let me sit there when there's no much business. I sit there, staring at the bamboo decor, while sipping

a non-alcoholic mojito. I couldn't stop thinking about the manetees, balugas, and sharks at the museum. I

mean, they were so beautiful, though nobody was putting an end to the pollution, that was causing them to

go through sufferings. I mean, i always knew that there were endangered species due to pollution, and

carelessness, but i never paid attention to this. I started recycling more. I picked up some pamphlets, on

stopping pollutions. It changed the way i looked at somethings, and I knew it could be great to think of

others for a while. I'm always too nervous about my own future. I think this was a good distraction, for

everybody to recycle.
