Apparently, I was 'tagged' to do this do-da thingy about seven things :-/ By our very own girlfriend across the pond Izzy Mo - You know I don’t do this kind of stuff –

Not because I hate spoiling the fun and sulking like a pre-teen! No, simply because people start making a lot of assumptions about an individual and almost begin to construct a personality of someone based upon what they read.

God knows best how many personalities folk out there have already created in their minds - multiple Bints!

But for you Izzy here I go!

Seven Things I Plan to do Before I Die

1. Know more of the Qur’an by memory & be able to recite it properly - like a nightingale would be nice..

2. Make up all my missed Prayers - I have a chart and am ticking off whatever I can! I also want to make up my Fasts if God allows - As some folk know, I don't fast and would love to join the Ummah one day when my health allows.

3. Establish Tranquilart as a business and see all the non-profit campaigns to their ultimate completion. I want to re-launch Phase 2 Tranquilart with a lot more emphasis on the Philosophy behind it and do crazy, innovative things like: The Sling Challenge and Writing Letters!

4. Visit the House of God again: either Umrah or second Hajj, not fussed! Just Invite me again please God!

5. Write a novel :-)

6. Learn the Fiqh of Departure - and know how to wash the dead etc. I feel this is so important, really really really need to do this as soon as I recover and am up for it.

7. Re-discover Peace and the answers to some of my questions about life.

1. Talk to anyone - yep anyone! And network with people. If you need any help let me know; if I can't help you - I'll know someone who can!

2. Sleep anywhere: the floor, bus, train, plane – anywhere!

3. Paint, stitch, sew & liberate my creative bunny!

4. Accept my limitations – that I am actually NOT in control of the world! Although I often forget those limitations :-/

5. Cook chicken in a wok! er.. OK well I used to be able to..

6. Wear my heart on my sleeve

7. Run, jump, skip and hop with little people!

1. Accept Praise from people.

2. Lie – can’t do it to save my life!

3. Read between the lines – so frustrating!

4. Sleep at night knowing someone is cross with me.

5. Use knitting needles for their actual purpose - I always wanted to knit a teddy :o(

6. Cook like mum

7. Hide emotion

Seven Things I Say Most Often

1. Asalamalaikum

2. Really?

3. Oh God Please show me the way forward.

4. I'm well.

5. Thank you.

6. What's the matter?

7. Don't worry.

1 – 7. Oh purleaze! I’m a feminist! I’ve got no time for that!
