The Paper Pak

Sick and tired of reading the same book everytime? Are you hungry and want a quick snack? Want an effective way to kill time? Introducing the Paper Pak. It's a bag that contains lots of great goodies for you to fill up some spare time, have a quick snack and quench thirst. It will cost you around 15-20 Singapore Dollars. The only way to own it is to make it yourself and I'll show you how in today's post.

Newspaper/Magazine/Book

One of the classic ways to entertain yourself on the go is to read a newspaper, magazine or book. All those crisp clear texts on a book, colourful pictures on a magazine and informative news on local and worldwide issues will sure to keep you entertained. If you are lucky enough to have all three, great! The more the merrier!

Sketch Book

Whether you suck at drawing or not, drawing is also considered as entertainment. So do yourself a favour by picking up a sketch book and a pencil and draw something that interests you. Make sure what you are drawing can be seen by others. Don't make it too small and don't make it too big. Additionally, make sure you know what to draw. It can be the beautiful scenery at the park or if that's too difficult, you can proceed to a shopping mall and draw out the storefront of your favourite store. Just draw to your heart's content.

Printing/Coloured Papers

Did you know that a single blank piece of paper can entertain you too? Just get yourself a bunch of blank or used A4 printing or coloured papers or both and keep it in a file. Whenever you're bored, get a piece and make some origami with it. You can print out some origami guides from the internet if you prefer. So use those guides as reference and make some origami with it!

Snack And Beverage

Everyone will get hungry and thirsty at some point of time. With all those time killing, I am sure you will too. So be prepared with some snacks and beverages. You don't have to stick to oil-laden foods. You can get yourself something nutritious such as cream rolls, high fibre crackers, bananas, french loaves, wholegrain rolls or freshly baked almonds. To wash it all down, let me suggest to you bottled water, bottled green tea, canned sugar-free drinks or canned fresh juice. Now you can keep that hunger at bay without feeling guilty.

To top it all off, get yourself a small carry bag or backpack and keep everything in it. With the Paper Pak, you can read the newspaper, magazine, book, draw out the beautiful scenery in your sketch book, make some origami and feed yourself with a nutritious snack and quench your thirst with bottled water all in one portable carry bag. Let those creative juices flowing adding more items you like to put it in. You can even decorate the bag of your very own Paper Pak. Oh and don't forget to snap a picture of your own homemade Paper Pak and send it in to me! I'll see you next time and have a wonderful day!
