BFG and Macbeth

Macbeth and The BFG are both very interesting stories that are full of knowledge. Even though they have different stories, they both teach us important lessons.

The BFG by Roald Dahl is a book about a big giant who makes friends with a small girl named Sophie. At first, Sophie is scared of the giant, but then she realizes that even though he might look very scary, he's actually very kind and friendly. The lesson of the story is that we shouldn't judge people because of how they look.

Macbeth is a play by William Shakespeare, a very famous writer. It is a story about a man named Macbeth who is a soldier of King Duncan. He is very loyal to the king but then his wife makes him kill the king so he will become king instead of him. Macbeth is a good man but his wife tricked him into doing something evil. The lesson of the story is that even if someone tells you to do something bad, you should always stay good.

28th of February

On the last day of February, I went to my friend Nour's birthday party. We had lots of fun! We laughed, danced, sang, and talked together. Nour's family was there and I had a nice time talking to them and getting to know them. The funniest part was when Nour's little sister's friends came into the bedroom and we kicked them out! After that, we had an amazing time. I really enjoyed myself. It was a wonderful way to end the month!!

About Me

Hello! My name is Gamila Zayed. I am 12 years old. I am an IB student in Oasis International School. I am going to tell you a little bit about my life.
I live in the beautiful city of Cairo. I share a home with my mother, my father, and my little sister. She's so sweet but sometimes she can be a nuisance! I also have a very large family which I am thankful for. I'm very close with all my cousins - they're just like my sisters and brothers! I'm glad that I also have a lot of friends at my school. I always have fun with them, whether it's at school or outside school. We always share projects and work together in class. Now I'll tell you about myself and my hobbies.
I love music. I can play the guitar and the piano, although I've recently stopped playing the piano. Every Saturday I go to the Gezira Club where I have private tennis lessons with my cousins. I enjoy playing tennis because it is a fun sport and it;s very exciting when I beat my partner.

Here are some of my favourite foods:

  • cupcakes
  • cote d'or chocolate
  • pizza
  • burgers
  • french fries
