      New York cheese cake. Makes me want to sing, 'New York, New York...'

      I was a very avid fan until I was about 15. The Hart foundation, Sean Michaels, Hunter Hearst Helmsley(as he was then known), the cage matches, Royal Rumble, Summer Slam, and then it became too much like a soap opera. So I watched a less violent soap opera instead.Days of ignorance I call em.

      Ooh I get to choose my own name but now I'm stumped. I'd like it to be something sufficiently self-depreciating like a famous villain.

      Danger is Khatr. خطر. Dangerous is Khateer. I think Waseem Khateer Dawood has a ring to it.

      :P

      On an unrelated note you should listen to Arabic football commentary someday. When an attack is been made, commentators shout, 'khateer, khateeeer'

      I don't watch enough movies. Most movie analogies are regrettably lost one me. Lion King remains a favourite although Waseem's given 'Up' a very compelling review so I'd like to see that soon. Perhaps The Lion King will be deposed.

      I just remembered Toy Story. That was fun too.

      It's like Khalil Gibran said,
      Your children are not your children.
      They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.
      They come through you but not from you,
      And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.

      My children take on their own names to take on their own lives. They'll be called by their father's name on the day of reckoning and so it should be on Earth.

      Waseem, my dear friend. I will not spoil your good mood by incurring the wrath of the global feminist movement on you. Khadija Patel sounds just right, no room for alterations. 'nuff said.

      I would prefer to speak to the people involved like adults instead of using formspring to air laundry.

      Saals! How I've missed you today! Misr is too far away. This wordpress business made me feel really stupid today.

      Planning a blog, writing portfolio sort of thing. Well if wordpress and I can shake hands first of course

      My prolonged state of unwedded bliss, I've learnt, has shocked many of my school mates.

      I think Hitler lives on in the psychology of people who think peace is slovenliness and only war creates order.

      I'd really like to be a child again. To be poor and yet not know you're poor, to have an unsullied world view, to look out the window at the world as it is.

      I wish someone would have told me not to cave in to pressure to conform, that time and age bring you people who are less alien to your worldview and values.

      Tough. My first instinct is Gandhi but personal significance dictates Madiba

      I have a habit of getting myself into awkward situations, tumbling down a flight of stairs, standing up only to find my shoe compromised and then trying to hobble the length of a hall is one such example.

      A week ago I was left red faced when I sent a message to someone asking very firmly for some data and then a few minutes after a colleague informed that said data was received two days prior.

      Don't expect a man to build the world you want. Be prepared to work for yourself. Your looks are transient, your youth is the fizz in a can of soda, look after both your youth and your looks but be aware that a whole life is made up on much more

Khadija Patel’s Bio

An amphibious monarch, the power vested in me I lost back at the pond. I croak to keep the flies nearby.
