Inspiration! Where you at? I like to keep my writing candid so to be honest with you, it’s taken me a minute to put something out cuz there’s been no real stimulus! For the first time in a while I haven’t had an event to really get me excited/passionate/pissed off to the point I’m cranking […]
No I’m not a fob who can’t spell MTV. If you don’t know what MTB stands for, you will by close of business! I moved from Auckland to Sydney to start at MTV exactly one month ago. I’m becoming a bit of a broken record with my entries about fresh starts/relocating but I have to say that […]
Nga mihi o te Tau Hou! Started the year off in Puerto Rico and ended it in Aotearoa/New Zealand. Time to do like Oprah again with another entry of ‘Krit’s Favourite Things’! I’m trying not to repeat anything from last year’s list [family and friends, you go without saying!] so in no particular order… Fun Runs Had […]
The world of Islam was properly introduced to me by my classmate Ershad Ali at Viard Intermediate. Me and Ershad were thick as thieves cuz we were both idiots. This one time in Home Ec, I decided it would be a good idea to sprinkle bacon bits on our pizza when he wasn’t looking then […]
So many people have asked me if it’s hard coming back to Auckland. “It must be so small for you! Are you gonna get bored? You think there’s enough here to stimulate you?” The way they ask though, you’d think that all I do is kafao. I wanted to punch my brother Miki square in […]
Beware – this is a little erratic! That’s the best way to describe the last month – up, down and side to side. My emotions. My thoughts. My activity. My writing. Been under a bit of a spell lately but things are coming right! For a while I was having some issues at work. It […]
Everything’s been GO, GO, GO the last four weekends – Miami for a graduation, Washington DC for a conference, back to Miami for Memorial Day Weekend, Cincinnati with some freaks… …then I received some sad news – a close friend’s father had passed away. I flew back to the Lehigh Valley in support. Having only […]
This weekend was a pleasant reminder of how much we have to gain if we value the knowledge and experiences of those both older AND younger than us. I flew out to Vermont to catch up with my best buddy from Lehigh, Kester. We studied in the same education grad programme. Kezzy’s in his early […]
My first Thanksgiving was in 2010 where I was taken in by a Muslim family in Pennsylvania observing Eid. In 2011, I stayed with a dear friend in New Jersey where we prepared meals at a community centre. This year, I spent some down time with my family in Florida. When you go down there, […]
