This biography speaks about a 16 year old girl from California, Originally from Pakistan. who is talented in many ways. Well known as Mala. She is mainly known for art {Painting & Photography}. She has been doing Photography for 2 years only & other painting, drawing stuff since as long as she can remember. She is a girl with an interesting personality. I see a kid in her at times yet a lady as well.

I interviewed her & I found out that she haven’t ever taken an art class, in fact she said.” Dude, I ran out of my art class because I can’t listen to the teacher giving me instructions and telling me how to do my art. I do my art, my way.” {I listened to the recording more than 10x just to get this statement right because it was hilarious how she said it.} She has moved many schools, 8 in the last 3 years but she has always been well known for her art by her school mates, teachers and as well as her principle.

In the summer of 2011, Maliha started teaching children how to paint at a public library while she was herself 15. She did not apply, the librarian asked herself to teach. The librarian watched her everyday carry her art pad and she asked Maliha to show it to her. I interviewed the librarian too because she is my aunt and that is how Maliha and I became friends. I knew her before that because we went to the same school but after this we were really close. This year, 2012, the staff at the library changed but the new manager asked Maliha the same thing and asked her to teach an art class without knowing that she did this last year as well. She taught a class of 50+ students and 50 is just an estimated number, there might be more. A teacher from our school came with her kids in that class and she told Maliha that have you done this teaching thing before because that’s exactly how a good teacher acts. I remember this because I remember Maliha’s reaction. { My crazy artsy chic mala, she is hilarious! Even now I fall off laughing when I remember that day.}

The manager at the library asked her to put up her exhibition. She put her up art photography and paintings and everyone loved it. There was a big opening ceremony with a brunch at the library. An artist came to her exhibition and gifted her his book. That artist has been painting for more than 32 years as we talked to him. But that is not all she does, she has a little bit of everything in her. She is an amazing designer. Take my word for it. I asked her to dress me for my homecoming dance and my spirit week at school and everyone loved my dress at the dance and I got A for participation points in the spirit week which is hard in our school other than this as well, she designs amazing cloths. She is also a blogger and a youth director of the WAKE-UP! Team.

She is a great person in need as well. She will be always there for you even if you call heart 3 in the morning. I remember this because she told me this once when I was sad, exactly this & I did call her once in the middle of the night and I asked her that are you sleeping? I can call later.{ you could tell that she was a sleep} but she said that no she wasn't asleep and she talked to me 2 hours and made me feel better, that’s how good of a person she is.

Not only that, she is the funniest fun person I have ever met. She will joke around and she can make you laugh.

I wrote this biography for my English class. The topic was : Biography on a interesting local character. after reading this, my teacher wanted to meet Maliha. She didn't believe that I am writing about a real person but after meeting mala, my teacher was very happy. She is one the most exciting person. Every day is fun with her and unpredictable as well. This biography got me and A in my class and I couldn't have picked a better person for this.

She did all this before turning 17 and she will turn 17 on the 11th of November 2012.
