It's been a month



Yeah, it has been a month since I last posted updates about my project!
Honestly, its has been an eventful month! - The arrival of the holy month of Ramadhan, doing my internship and working on completing Su-Shi Bahrain, I have come so far with this project. I've been taking photographs, coordinating with a graphic designer, and now finally negotiating printing prices with a few companies! Initially I'm only looking to print a few copies, but I can see this book becoming a bigger project and I hope that hundreds and maybe thousands of copies would be printed. Anyway, I'm writing today to tell you what have been up to... This a little journal/diary that I've been keeping... Here you go:

25th July: visited Bahrain national museum and Capital mall for Bahraini crafts and products.

26th July: first day to meet the graphic designer and share my ideas and vision with him.

27th July: took the day to visit several centers that belong to the ministry of human rights and social development which provide services for children, elderly and disabled people.

30th July: attended an ending ceremony for the activities that the ministry of human rights and social development were providing for the children during the summer.

1st August: Another meeting with the graphic designer to see what he did for the cover page. And gathered some photographs that I’ve taken so far so he starts designing the inside pages.

8th August: traditional fashion show event.

9th August: inside pages design was ready.

10th August: photo shoot in Durrat Al-Bahrain.

13th August: Went to Souq Al-manama or Manama market, which is traditional.

14th August: Gergaoon family celebration.

18th August: another meeting to edit the inside pages and add more photos.

20th August: received another draft for the inside pages which look pretty GOOD!!

Here's a little sneak peak!
