Liebster Awards 2,3 and 4

Yesterday was award season at blogsphere. My feed was swamped with everyone doing award posts. I have been procrastinating doing mine for a month now and I have more lovely people nominating me for various awards now and then. Decided to push my musings for awards today.

I received 3 more Liebster Awards from Jade, Adi and Ahmad, I really want a trophy now guys instead of answering your questions.

Jade is my sister from another mister. She recently started this brilliant initiative of opening a Facebook group for bloggers as a platform for new bloggers to establish their base. Go support her by following her and joining the facebook group. I get chocolates as part of my commission so please do πŸ˜›

Adi is a talented and creative blogger with vivid imagery to her words. Her 6 word short story challenges are my favourite. Follow her to participate in the challenges

Ahmad is a brilliant poet whose articulate words leaves me in awe. I am personally biased to his Urdu poems but his English poems areΒ just as good. Check it out.

Jade’s questions :

1) What is perfect love for you?

Hmmm this is hard as I haven’t experienced perfect love yet. No wait, my mum. She has shown what perfect love is. Always kind,forgiving,patient. I always admire her big heart and hope to inherit the magnanimity trait from her.

2) Dancing in the rain or snow fight?

Dancing in the rain ftw!! Indian rain that is. When it rained here in Australia, I rushed out to soak the gentle pitter patter and boyy were they rocks pelting? I was like Owww owww stop, I am leaving geez.

3) What’s the best thing about kids?

Their innocent smile. I am talking about babies till 1 year of age. Any older and they turn devils.

4) Hit me with the most dangerous thing you’ve ever done

I am generally a goody-goody so I didn’t do anything dangerous. But will riding the world’s fastest roller coaster at Ferrari world count?

5) Which other language would you want to learn ?

Arabic.

6) Your favourite movie?

Lion King.

7) What keeps you motivated to keep blogging?

Comments from my readers.

8) What superhero power do you want?

The ability to fall sleep as soon as I hit the bed.

9) What gets wetter and wetter the more it dries?

Towel

10) Tell me something about you no one else in the blogosphere knows.

Hmm all my posts are autobiographical so there really isn’t anything you wouldn’t know. But one thing no one else here knows is my brushing schedule. So I wet my toothbrush before applying toothpaste on it, re-wet it and brush my teeth.

Adi’s questions :

  1. If you could choose one superpower, what would it be and why?

To be invisible so I can travel the whole world without bothering for passport visas and all. Also to prank people.

This question

11. What’s the answer to answer 10?

What question do you hate to answer?

Ahmad’s questions :

  1. Writers are more humane. How far do you agree with my sentence? Why or why not?

Nope I disagree. They are the most inhumane species. They kill off favourite characters that readers root for. Most despicable.

2. What’s your purpose in life? You only live once. YOLO. Right?

Nope no YOLO coz I shall live in Jannah too in sha Allah, And hence my purpose in this life is to strive for that Jannah.

3. Why blogging? Any specific best thing about it?

Why not? I love the interaction that it gives with my readers. Also the opportunity to get inspired by others.

4. What’s you fashion taste? Party taste?

My fashion taste is my mum’s. She picks out gorgeous outfits for me so yeah.

5. What’s your say upon β€˜love’? (I am curious to know this).

Love is a beautiful feeling. It gives you warmth on the inside even if the person is far away.

6. Any Quranic quote which really affects you? (For Non Muslim friends, write any quote which you really like)

Surah Inshiraah “Verily with hardship comes ease”

  2. Sis, how can you be so funny?? Hahaa
    I just loved the “brushing schedule” answer!
    Why didn’t you ask questions??? Maybe I will sound weird but I love answering questions, I find it so much interesting than telling facts about myself (maybe because I have no idea what to say). So, I’m mad at you right now 😦 but I will still do my liebster award post insha’Allah πŸ˜‰

  3. Haha πŸ˜€, I’m not particularly sure what to comment on – the post, the nomination or the comments… Kk av decided not to be as cheeky as Aaliyah so I’ll just comment on all. Thanks Aaliyah for the nomination 😘, of course we read your posts (who’d miss reading your musings?). I’m also clueless when it comes to shopping, but it’s not just mum who gets troubled when I need something, it’s everyone I know – lol.

  5. LOL at the brushing schedule. haha

    Btw this is my brushing schedule:

    1. Pick toothbrush
    2. Bump head on the mirror (coz sleepy eyes won’t open)
    3. Apply toothpaste to brush and drop a whole load on the floor
    4. Raise the brush and miss the mouth and start brushing the nose
    5. With a lot of effort, squint with one eye and put the brush in mouth
    6. Find the taste of the paste a bit weird (what is that?)
    7. Look at the toothpaste tube
    8. Holy moly I’m brushing with shaving cream!

  6. Smiling so frickin idiotically at being on top of this list haha πŸ˜› Imma weirdo.
    Gosh reading your answers got me stomachache. πŸ˜€
    Guess what? I just found another similarity between us, my mum does shopping for me. I hate roaming around the markets πŸ˜› So most of the time when she gives me a stitched outfit, I go like, “Its nice.” and she answers, “What do you mean? Don’t you like it? I got it for you.” and I just look at that piece of cloth and then her face : “Oh. Thank you. Do I actually have to wear it?” and she shakes her head and says “Mahaah. Please. Not again.” Haha. Every. Single. Time.
    (so many ands. nvm)

      4. Hahahahah.. Why is everyone here on wordpress so kind of scared of my replies? πŸ˜› I am not monstrous, right? πŸ˜€ Gosh. I’m laughing so hard. Never mind Aaliyah.
        Umm.. In social-media-language, lets call it a squad of writers and poets that belonged to lucknow. The writing patterns of Delhi writers and lucknow writers differ a lot. Like you can actually tell by just reading their texts.

        Um Allie. I think I wasn’t clear. See.. Do you know the term ‘canon’ in English literature? The stuff I’m talking about is historical, and not a modern phenomena.
        A bunch of writers, who write stuff that lives for a long time, that it becomes almost immortal, are called canonical writers. They are the canon. Then those pieces are included in syllabuses of students. The canon of English Literature includes Jane Austen, Shakespeare, and people like them.
        Similarly, Every language has its own canon. Urdu has one too. Our canon includes Allama Iqbal and Faiz Ahmed Faiz, and Mirza Ghalib and people like them. Now the point is. Urdu canon falls into two canons. (I guess I am right, I’m not so sure. But thats what mam told us.) Anyway. Those two canons are the two dabistaans. (The major categories of urdu literature)
        Dabistan e Lucknow and Dabistan e Dehli.
        So.. no you can not see if your writing style is like them. But you can guess, I can tell you their main characteristics. You are not canonical yet πŸ˜‰
        I am so sorry for writing this long long long comment. And I hope I am clear now?
