A meal for poor people.

Image
 💓             There are too many poor people in our town. Everyday they spent their time on the road. Some of them sleep at the bus halt. May be some times they haven't eaten at all. Last year me and my friends decided to offer a lunch for them. The day before we went to the market to buy vegetables and the other things we needed. And also we bought a pack of water bottles. On that day we got up early in the morning and started to cook. We prepared a vegetable rice with four curries. After that we packed them. Then we quickly dressed up and went to the town by, one of our friend's van. When we came to the town there were too many poor people on the road and in the bus halt. Some of them can't walk anymore. I felt very sorry for them. We had more than 30 food parcels and water bottles. We gave them to those peoples. When we offered the food parcels they were very happy, thankful and blessed us!💓  

Ambuluwawa Tower

Image
 ⛳             It was a sunny day. A week ago me and my friends had decided to go to watch Ambuluwawa Tower. I have visited there, with my family when I was a child. I don't remember how it was.  First we got on to a bus at the Peradeniya bus stand and it stopped at the Gampola. We had to go with another bus to Ambuluwawa. When we arrived there, it is about to 9 a.m. We went to the tower on foot. The tower was far away from the gate. We were tired. But, when we saw the tower we were very happy. The tower was very tall and white. It's stairs were very tiny. When we came to to[ of the tower we could see the whole town. The wind came hardly and that view was so beautiful.  Except to the main tower, there were another small towers. I think it is a calm and attractive place. The environment around the tower was also brilliant! After watching the whole thing around the tower we got back to home.

Pinus Forest

 🌲             Hiking is a one of my favourite thing. One day me and my friends decided to visit to a mountain which named "Sinduran Kanda". It is situated in our area.  We started our journey in the morning about to 8.30 a.m. Before we started to hike we bought some snacks, water bottles and noodles packets. The way to the mountain was very forested. And also we had to walk over big rocks. When we were going a little higher we could see huge pinus trees. I think definitely it was a pinus forest. Finally we found a plain area on top of the mountain. It was very windy and it felt as cold and very fine. First we made a stove and lit it. We had a pot and we made noodles for us, it was yummy.  We sang too many songs. Some of our friends danced. It was very funny and I like that type of moments. And also we took many photos. Then it was time to go back home.We started to walk descend again. It took only two hours. We enjoyed our little...

An Unforgettable Day

Image
 🌸             It was a Sunday. My father has gone to his work and my mother and sister were home. I had already planned to go to one of our teacher's home, because she was sick. I went there with few of my old friends. When we went there she was sleeping. So, we didn't bother her. Her daughter made some tea for us and when we done with it we decided to leave. When we were leaving from there, one of my friend said "shall we go somewhere else?", We all liked that idea. Also we had our friend's van, so we started to go to Kothmale. We could go only to the Kothmale Maha Seya. Because we had no more time to go anywhere else. The interesting thing is I didn't tell my mother that we have come to Kothmale. When we were in the temple my mother called me and asked why I was late. When she was calling I was very scared. I told her we didn't have enough petrol to our van and we came to Gampola shed to pump some petrol. Then we immediately started to c...

So, I wanted to make something. And I thought to make some cookies.🍪 First of all I took a bowl and 270g wheat flour, 1/2 tea spoon of baking powder, 1 tea spoon of salt and added them to the bowl and mixed them well. Then I added butter 200g, white sugar 100g, brown sugar 200g, two eggs and 2 tea spoon of vanila essence to another bowl and beat it well. After that I  mixed the two mixtures together and added some chocalate chips . Then I put the mixture in the refrigerator for 20 minutes. After that I took out the mixture and put a baking sheet on a tray. I made some small balls from the mixture and placed them on the tray.

Cafe Time

Image
 😋         Food is something I love very much. When I have a free time I always like to go to a cafe with my friends. Last Year I went to a cafe called by "The Garage Cafe" , in Kandy; with my loving two friends. We often go to that cafe😜. First we ordered a fried rice, a cappuccino, a chocolate shake, two cheese kottu and two jar of mojito. We always used to order different types of food and taste them. All the dishes were delicious!😋 Not just foods, I enjoy my life being with my friends. When we go to a cafe, we talk about our lives. It is like as a medicine for my mental health because I can share my thoughts and feelings with my friends.💓
