Inna Lillahi Wa Inna Ilayhi Rajioon

First off I would like to say JAzaka'Allah to all the wonderful duas and kind words by everyone in emails and on my blog. Even people who's blogs I never visit had the most uplifting duas for me and I truly appreciate it. Thank you all once again and may Allah shower his mercy upon you all.

Its been almost a week now since dad passed away. Allah truly is the best of planners. Just last night I was talking to a good friend of mine on the phone who was trying to help me get my head straight. The night before he passed away, dad was feeling so much better, we were sort of comfortable leaving him on his own and the nurses said the same thing. My friend's mother had been in the hospital for the last couple of days and yesterday was the first night my friend didnt stay over. About an hour or so ago, I received a text from her saying her mom has passed away. It absolutely breaks my heart to think what she must be going through as I know the feeling very well and as I have come to know, so do quite a few people who emailed or left comments.

A week ago I had people coming up to me and saying they didnt know what to say. Today I find myself in the exact same position even though I went through the same thing less than a week ago. I guess there are no words one can say to comfort someone at a time like this. Again, duas would be requested for W's mom and insha'Allah if you guys could pray for her forgiveness and admittance into paradise, it would be appreciated. Jazakumullah Khair.

So one thing I havent mentioned on here (primarily as before this latest stint, I have blogged only twice in the 5 and a bit years I have taken it up)is my interest/love/hate of motorbikes. I say hate (strong word) but its not necessarily that... It is just a case of not having sympathy when the things go wrong (and boy some have had their share... not naming names Honda CBF125...oops). So yes when I realised I was spending a month and a bit's salary a year on train tickets where the trains were horrendously bad in service (not naming any names First Great Western now known as Great Western Railway... (As a wise man known as Britney Spears once said... Ooops I did it again :) ) Brackets within brackets... how novel) I thought there has to be a better way. So one day as I was browsing through the buy/sell ads on the work intranet (read : was wasting time), in a shining light from above kinda moment, I saw an advert for a scooter with fuel consumption of 130mpg. In my little head (

Shoot to thrill So I just finished watching Inception (yes I know I am only a year or so behind the times). I took the plunge today with a full understanding (or so I thought) of the concept of the movie and what to expect. Oh Em Geeee... was I in for a shock and such an excellent one at that. A brilliantly executed idea and thankfully, for once, an original one. I have to say I cant remember the last time I watched a movie which wasnt a sequel, prequel, reboot or connected to some other movie idea/concept in some way, shape, form or aspect. Yes it can be argued it goes into the augmented reality side of things which has been used many times before but this is a very refreshing take on the genre. I like how the movie asked or answered questions that were popping into my head as I watched the movie (yes even though I do prefer the no brainer movies, but I do like to keep an inquisitive mind). One thing I couldnt believe is how the guy out of Third Rock from the sun actually pulled off a

So blogging via a phone is not quite as easy as I thought it may be. But still gonna give it a go... Actually , nopes, cant be bothered. Still need a proper keyboard to do this. This of course coming from the guy who gets and replies to a million and one (like totally literally) messages on WhatsApp on his phone everyday. Plus little H is getting cranky so gotta go see what's what. Laterz pataterz.
