Award: "You're going places baby"

In the name of God, compassionate & merciful بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ | Peace be with you السلام عليكم

Awarded by: sister Rukhpar Mor. I have an inkling sister Rukh is Pakistani too... That's made me slightly excited.

Awarded for: I dunno. The online world may be high on valium, giving out positive vibes to saps like I. Or someone found a little of my light and went all 'woah, gimme my shades, she's dazzling' and spontaneously combusted into virtual gifts, thus deciding to give me back a piece of non-edible delight.

Unfortunately I am not a rare special Muslim female breed deserving of a unique gift made just for I - I googled the quote 'you're going places baby' and hundreds of bints* have got'em un'all! Either way, alhamdulillah.

Interesting note: the guy in the pitcher? That's the American actor Humphrey Bogart from the 1930s, 40s and 50s. I know you will not know this because you did not spend your school truanting days watching his films; I did. Iconic films such as Casablanca, Sabrina, The Barefoot Contessa, The Return of Doctor X, The African Queen, Dark Passage. And dyu remember the Home Alone scene where zit-faced pizza delivery boy is scared to death by Macauley Culkin's acting? That was a scene from Bogart's Angels with Dirty Faces. Bogart. What an extraordinary name.

Side note: Rukhpar created a comic of her own. I'm the one she refers to as 'the Muslim lady who makes really cute comics'. See that? Cute.

*bint - Arabic for 'daughter, daughter of'. English for 'naive woman'.

  2. Sorry to disappoint you dear, but I knew that was Mr. Bogart - though I haven't seen any of the movies in full, but parts of them here and there.
