Writing Challenge: My Keychain

 

 

You can listen to the audio version of the blog here.

I only have three keys. I never paid attention that I do not have so many keys:one for the entrance door and the other for my car. The third one is an extra key that I made for my dad last year.He came to Canada to visit me and as such, an extra key was made for him. I think the reason that I do not have different keys with different key-chains is that I do not like to carry so many objects with me. I like to have a neat and organized purse in which I can usually find the stuffs quickly.   

My first key-chain is for the entrance door and is a copper colored, tiny statue of Eiffel Tower that is given to me as a souvenir. I always hold it in my hands as if I hold an Olympic gold medal with pride and appreciation. First, it was given to me by someone whom I love so much and second, the key-chain is unique and unusual. I think the idea of making a tiny statue of Eiffel tower for a key-chain is very creative. It reminds of Paris, the center of art and beauty, every day when I touch the key in my hands. Not only it reminds me of the beauty of Paris and its popularity for art, but also it talks to me: " You should visit me one day."  That is why I am so attached to this tiny object.

Another key-chain is also interesting. A very minute pig embodied by a glass rectangular box. The shape of the pig is consisted of single dots that, from a far distance, they look like an oval. If you look at it closely, you just observe dots. But, when you lean back, all dots reveal a shape of a whole pig, which is not vivid at first glance. It is also three -dimensional. One thing that astonishes me about this tiny pig is its tail. The tail is as small as two or three dots, but it is skillfully executed. So are the other parts of the pig such as its ears or nose. You can clearly observe all the details of its face and other body parts. This reminds me of the accuracy and the skillful ability that its artisan had.

Therefore, I think these insignificant possessions show how much I love and appreciate unique and unusual objects. I associate the uniqueness and novelty of these objects to my own character. I feel if I have a unique and novel key-chain, I am myself unique and novel. It also reveals my passion for traveling and getting to know different cultures. That is why I adore my two tiny companions.

    When I want to embed it, I click on the "Embed" part in Vocaroo, then I copy the "Embed code",paste it and then remove the redundant part "<br><a href="http://vocaroo.com" style="font-size:xx-small;" title="Vocaroo Voice Recorder">Record music with Vocaroo &gt;&gt;</a>".

  • Hi dear Nafis,

    Wow! What a beautiful picture! Your story was so nice. I like the idea of not taking too many objects with you. Seeing your writing and comments, one can prove that you are so neat. Your writing is well organized as dear Tara said. Brava.

    I like the way you described everything. Two paragraphs for describing the two keychains of yours, and the ending paragraph are all so well. 

    Anyway, thanks for sharing with us.

    Have a great time.

    :)

    Thanks for the your little but unique sharing again :) have a very nice day.

  • Hi, Dear Moh, thanks a lot for your comment and your English is good! Don't worry at all! Wow! I can understand your feeling when you found out you didn't have your keys with you. It's so awful! But, it was good that you could find the keys. I think it's really difficult to carry so many keys at the same time, but sometimes we don't have any other choices and therefore, we have to do it. Thanks a lot and have a nice time!

  • Dear Tara, I don't know why I couldn't add the embedded code. I guess something is wrong with my PC. It is going to die. That is why it doesn't function very well. I'm really sorry about that.

  • Wow! Thanks a million times dear Tara. I'm so glad I wrote something for the first time that makes sense and is not vague. I hope one day, we both can visit Paris! 

    I don't know why when I embed the audio file and paste the embed code here, it doesn't show the embedded file on my page. Before, it was working, but now, I couldn't. I will try again. Thanks a lot and have a wonderful weekend!
