Contest Closed For Judging


Picture Worth Your Words Contest Aisha's Scrapyard

Hello contestants and fellow readers…

(Gosh I look so silly when I talk formal…LOL)

Okay, So the Picture Worth Your Words Contest has been closed for Judging. The results will be announced on the 26th of January as per mentioned in “A Contest Coming Up… Participate And Spread The Fire…” 

At first I was thinking, “10 days for judging? Whats wrong with you Aisha. Judging can be done within few hours. DUH you’r so weird.” But looking at the amazing and wonderful entries that I have got, 10 days are still not enough for me to judge them. So I guess this is where I can tell to myself “I TOLD YOU SO.”

And frankly, I don’t even think if I am even capable of Judging such marvelous, exceptional and bona-fide entries that you have all given me. 

Some of my silent readers, who have been keeping an eye on my contest and going through the entries (but haven’t laid a comment) have personally told me that all the entries are awesome and that each entry was a master piece in itself. (people speak for yourself…)

errrr okay chop chop….

Here are the list of contestant entries (in order submitted) :

Wow… I thought I would not have more than 5 entries. This is good for the start 🙂

Guys, Thank you so much for showing your interest, taking time from your busy schedule and making it for the contest. It means a lot to me that you have all given it time and given me different perspective on life. These entries are each amazing.

My good wishes to all of you. May the best entry win. 

Keep in touch because I may post “Top 3 Contest Entries” within the next 5 days (em not sure. No promises) or I may go directly with the winner (still not sure and still no promises).

Until next time, Stay Beautiful and Keep Writing 🙂

      poor girl 🙂 she might read them over and over again, and yet she might discover that 10 days was really not enough time 😀 and she might give up 😀

      we hope that u will get out of ur judge chambers in one piece 😀 and with a verdict 😀

      good luck to u Ash 🙂

      • :-O

        😦

        Well, I already have a lot on my mind at the moment. I am doing so much all that the same time that I find myself awake till morning because my mind is constantly thinking.

        So many pieces of puzzles to join 🙂

        But don’t worry, I try coming out in one piece.

  9. Hi Ash,
    Really, I had so much fun while participating in your contest! And getting to know other writers and reading what they wrote was very inspiring! 🙂

    Thanks again and again for making the contest and may Allah help you to choose the best entry, it must be a hard thing to do since every post was amazing in it’s unique way!

    • It sure is difficult. That’s why I am not looking into the entries right now. I want to clear my head first from any prejudice and then I will read all the entries once again and giving each entry ample time for reflection.

  10. Missed this one, courtsey lethargy, will be back in the next one 🙂
