The week that was: #5
Hello everyone! This is time for a recap of my week. Let me start by saying that it was the best week of 2018. Why, you ask? Monday and Tuesday were regular work days. I have managed to bring down the defect count from 9 to 5. Yayyy me. For others, those two days were…
Happy Urdu Day
!السلام علیکم جمعہ مبارک۔۔۔ جمعہ کا دن ہے، یعنی کہ یومِ بریانی۔ ابھی ابھی جب ہم دسترخون پر بریانی کے مزے لوٹ رہے تھے، تو میرے بھائی نے پوچھا۔ “یومِ اردو پر کچھ لکھا نہیں؟” جی ہاں۔ مجھے اکثر چھیڑا جاتا ہے ، لیکن میں برا نہیں مانتی۔ اور یہ تو برا ماننے والی…

Self Doubt 2.0
I had planned to write a post celebrating my journey. Today, ‘Uff Yeh Ladki’ completes six months of its digital publish. Instead, here I am. Irony? So what brings me here with a continuation of my old post? Self doubt, of course. I know I shouldn’t; but I do obsess over the ratings and reviews….
