Title Uff Haniya (A Muslim Family Drama and Romantic Comedy) Summary We hear what we want to hear. We see what we want to see. We remember what we want to remember. Often, we hear from others’ ears. We see through others’ eyes. We remember what others want us to remember. But the truth can…

A Retrospective: The week that was – 19w29
This weekend I binged watched an old Disney show, review coming up soon. I try, every month, to clear my TBR on GoodReads. I keep on adding more to the list, tch. I read Amal Unbound, finally. It has been sitting on my TBR for a year, literally! I had added it on June 27,…

A Retrospective: The week that was – 19w28
This week, I slowed down. Seriously, I put in effort to slow down. I read only two books. I tried reading new authors – both were surprisingly nice. I still crochet one round at a time. Yet again, I am overwhelmed with the number of ideas floating in my head, so much that I cannot…
A Retrospective: The week that was – 19w27
The week was crazy. I read around thirty stories of varying length. Some, I have reviewed. Some are pending. Some did not leave any impression and therefore will not be reviewed. My birthday is nearing and I still haven’t worked on the final draft of the novel I wanted to publish on my birthday. I…

Achhuuuu… I got flu last Friday and still haven’t recovered. Coming to office with dripping nose and watery eyes is not fun, trust me. Work was okay. I had a demo this week and it went well. I have read a lot this week, especially yesterday. I started an English novel The Captive by M V…

The monsoon begins and so does the phase of lethargy. I mean, I just don’t want to step out of my bed, let alone stepping out and coming to office. Argh! I don’t have that luxury, though. I envy those who work from home. I wish I had some other profession that required staying in…
A Retrospective: The week that was – 19w24
This is the second week post vacation and life has returned to the old track – boring, tiring and irritating routine track. I am on on-call support this week, that means leaving the house at 8:30 AM sharp, and returning by or after 8:30 PM. Being on-call constantly keeps me on my toes. I don’t…
A Retrospective: The week that was – 19w23
Being back at work sucks, literally! I had hoped, much like I do every time I take a vacation, that the break will rejuvenate me and make me like my job more. It DIDN’T. Let me rephrase that. I don’t hate my job. I am just perpetually tired, and the to-and-fro work feels more exhausting…
A Retrospective: The week that was – 19w22
This week was a much awaited vacation at home for Eid celebrations. The three days of Ramadan were a blur. All I remember is now terribly hot it was (46 degrees Celsius, folks). True to my expectations, the moon was sighted on 29th of Ramadan. I stayed awake all night, not much by choice because…
