Well this has been quite a long time since i have doing anything like this. Where do i start to explain the rollercoaster i have been through over the past few months… hmmmmmm i guess i should start from where i left off… Well march the third… i was still ill  after that… i have been quite badly ill since then… It resulted in the major news of my life… i ended up seeing my doctor and he said to me i might have to have an operation to relieve the pain and discomfort i have been in. Inbetween this i had my birthday celebration and had a pleasant meal with boys and generally chilled out… For my bday i got some clothes and an soon to arrive ipad from family… also got a racket of mohsin and a t-shirt of amer (the legends ) Then after my bday i got the unfortunate news that my operation was required so i had to go in to blackburn for an ilyestomy and partial bowel removal surgery. Not gonna lie to all you people even though i was looking forward to it cause i knew it would mean no more pain but when i got in to the clothes and all that happened… i shit it in a big way(which now looking back was ironic if you know what an ilyestomy is)… I guess i was unaware of the seriousness of this whole ordeal. I thought id be fine in a couple of days and it wouldnt be a major thing… i had 16  staples on where they cut me open and have had to had a change of lifestyle but i am getting used to it… in hospital i was okay but i had bad times and good times i was happy with all the people who came to visit me it really did mean a lot and then i got let out on tuesday after doctors said i was okay…

Then i got sent back to hospital on wednesday and on wednesday i had the worst night of my life… gastric bypass it isnt a pleasant thing trust me on this one… But after that horrific night i am doing okay since and i have my appetite back and all that… I am looking forward to getting myself on the road to recovery… Now i am all about building my weight and getting healthy and then preparing for my reverse ilyestomy operation which will happen in a few months time… Also i have been found that i dont have crohns disease now it was just a case of tb which destroyed my insides… That is good news as the tb is cureable where as crohns isnt (although sadif may beg to differ about the whole tb being curable thing)

So now thats out of the way the future is the way to look… Am i going to london with the boys or rage concert i can officially rule out the concert and say im very unlikely to be going to london then… I think its too soon for me… I wont be doing much for next two weeks and then hopefully start building up slowly slowly… I have to keep active and not bed ridden but i cant even walk down a street without getting breathless at the moment… thats how bad my fitness is at the moment… I wont be going on a holiday with the boys but if im better i might go back to italy for a week or so… Also i have been give another 2 months off work but then hopefully i should be back this should be my final absence… I think that i am going to be able to finish university in the summer and then graduate a little later then everyone but still graduate none the less i just have two exams and one piece of work… anyhoo its way past my bedtime and now i hope to update more often with more updates on the recovery as i am finally pain free and as i said on the road to recovery… Hopefully this will be the start of more consistent blogging!

Back to university with a bang if im brutally honest… Me and mohsin did our full human factors coursework in one day… From 8 til 8… banged it out big time… It made me realise how shit students we are… Why did we leave it til last minute… we had full christmas holidays… i was ill but still… proper shit… The real funny thing was on the sunday… instead of doing work… Me, Mohsin, Asjad and Ibrar instead of doing work had a ridiculosly top laugh reminiscing and that… Doing it big time… Ibrar literally put himself in to the legendary status as did asjad with a little combination which left all of us rolling on the floor laughing our asses off (or in computer lingo ROFLMAO) It was literally too much… My sides were aching and are still hurting now… i laugh just thinking about it… MOMENT OF THE DECADE!!!

Went to work aswell. On my third return back after illness… I think there getting sick of my return from illness’s if im honest… Me and ibrar absolutely cained saturday when we ripped sarah to shreads… She broke the lottery machine and me and ibrar like the helpful employees we are just laughed at her non stop and kept being ridiculosly unhelpful. Then on sunday i made a legendary moo noise whilst ibrar was doing the announcement to close the store and then zaf went mental and scared all the customers…  It was a fun weekend back at work if im honest with you…

Went to doctors today and i got good news! The doctor said i was improving and the treatment was being succesful and hopefully has put my crohns into remission… After i finish my course of steriods i shall be 3 weeks without meds to see if it is in remission properly… but the tests results are looking positives… Im still going to the rest of the tests they have scheduled just to make sure its not anything else…Insh’Allah this new year will be a better year for me healthwise… I am looking forward to meeting Hamzah now cant wait to go see him… Had lunch with alfie today… too much… He is an absolute legend… Chilling with him big time… When i went to work he literally didnt do a little bit of work it was class…

Really now i need to get cracking into my uni work… I am really now going to have get my final year project started… Ironically though i am writing this as a way to put off doing my work… I have to say uni work is really ann0ying me now… i hate doing work… why am i in education… The weather is the biggest deterrent to do work… The big freeze is a lot colder then everyone anticipated… I for certain didnt expect how cold it actually ended up being… And now for tomorrow i need to find the quickest way spend my loan money so im thinking of buying clothes and whatnot… then tomorrowa monopoly session is going down with the manchester boys I literally cant wait for that… infact im going to google monopoly tips in preperation for tomorrow…

Unfortunately not in the ghetto slang way… I havent blogged in a while for reasons you may or may not now… I kinda think no one would have really noticed if im honest… i dont dare look at how many people actually view this site… I think its cause if i did i would see how its only sadif who actually reads this! So this blog is all about how i have been ill and its pretty crap to be honest… just warning you! Its not really that good. I am watching dexter season ending whilst writing this… DEXTER IS TOO MUCH ! By the way after hearing reports that people dont think the mentalist is good. THEY ARE WRONG the mentalist rules. Patrick Jane is toooooo much. Also i must add this christmas we have been having mammoth monopoly sessions with the BB18 Crew. Kashaf absolutely battered me and amz on the first unofficial night. Then on the first official night kashaf won and destroyed amz again. In the second round Mohsin won and the third round Ibrar destroyed us all! I decided to put monopoly as the small picture just because of how awesome that game is!!!

So what happened in the life of Tariq. Tariq’s life went badly i must say from the last blog. What happened unfortunately was that i had a reoccurence of whatever the illness i had earlier… I ended up getting really ill on the thursday i went home… Then on friday(4th december) i got worse and saturday(5th december) it was worse and i ended up getting sent home from work… and that led me down a very crap road which i wont go into too much detail into! believe me you dont want to know… Then i went to burnley hospital and that doctor was by far the worst doctor i have ever seen. If you are a pakistani and you see a pakistani doctor they automatically assume you are a dick! I got misdiagnosed there big time and he was so arrogant and rude…

Then i went to see doctor kenny and he sent me to blackburn hospital. I spent the night there(which was the worst night of my life… no young person should be in  where the nurses and the main doctors were both really good and actually seemed like they knew what they were doing… The young doctors were okay but i think there workload was very large… i can see where they were coming from… Basically i was in a lot of pain them days… then i got out and had to go back to manchester to hand in my uni work… But i was okay on thursday friday i had a legendary scrabble session with sadif and kept losing to ataf in the days after!!!(10th and 11th) then on saturday(12th) after finishing most of my work i chilled with mohsin and watched united lose to villa!

Im going to take a break from my sick blog for something else which is making me sick. MANCHESTER UNITED’S ATTACKING PERFORMANCE!!! i understand the defence thing and i think against fulham we just underestimated them by thinking we could do the old 3 at the back like we did against wolfsburg… But how piss poor are united at going forward… so one dimensional!!! I mean i know selling cristiano ronaldo will make a massive difference but how can we go from scoring from pretty much any where to not even being able to score at all! I mean united’s defence will come back and we will be okay in that sense… But something needs to change big time to get the goals we need in order to win the title!!!

Now back to the sick blog, then on sunday (13th) i was really ill luckily the manchester crew all helped me out to keep motivated and help me get through doing the work! Then on monday night i was in agony and on tuesday i was in agony i went to see dr grimes and he said that i had the Crohns Disease. Click on the link for more information about that. He said it was 80% definate and we will be working under that assumption. He gave me roids again and then move onto the next meds in january. I started feeling better on the roids and it helped me a lot after a couple of days of pain i got back to a degree of normality.

Then i got to today. I confirmed that i was back at work this sunday and Dr Kenny rang me up and said my x ray showed up saying there are things on the xray are looking suspiciously like Tuberculosis. Click on the link for more information about that. Yet if your a close member of our family you probably know all about that. So now i have had to cancel my day back at work and am in quarantine for the next two weeks so now im back to 50/50 in whether its crohns or tb… Not the healthiest of person i am at the moment!!!

So what else is new in my life… Apart from that i have been resting and eating and getting myself better… I handed in my work whilst being ill and did the whole mitigating circumstances form thing but i think that i did my work to an ok level and im glad the group work i had to do didnt get let down by my work!!! I am too tired to continue! i shall leave it for another day… now inshallah i shall try to update more regularly but ill be honest i was a little down in the dumps with how i was but now i am trying to look at a more positive way of life! I really didnt wanna write this but i just felt i had to in order to move along… Now onto more cheerier blogs in the future!!!

Sadif and Tariq

New look blog… I like this theme so im probably going to stick with it for a while… Sadif was the chief enabler in all of this happening so i would like to say thank you and if you dont read his blog you should aswell… Like anyone is reading this apart from sadz… Who are we kidding eh!

FNF match rating will be done by sadif this week… they should be arriving at the latest tomorrow im assuming… i dont see no reason why they would come at a later time… Was working at the co-op today and the lies we said last week have stuck with one customer… i was buzzing and carried on the lie… She thinks in december Ibrar is going to australia….

Today i was pretty much chilling… i watched tv and the normal friday thing occured… Just kept myself busy til 3 went to work then played football then the boys came down to mine… First it was mohsin and sadif then sadif went then amer came… us three ataf and kashaf got some food ate it… watched seinfeld generally chilled… it ended up being a good night…

Went to watch Journey To Mecca yesterday in bradford imax with khuram yesterday. First of all it was visually stunning the whole imax experince. The actual movie was completely breathtaking. It was about the Moroccan traveller Ibn Battutah and his solo journey from Morroco to Mecca. The movie is definately something you need to watch and can be watched at the Bradford Imax Cinema.

In other news, went to leeds with alfie and went to the worst sheesha place and alfie drove like a maniac and didnt adhere to the rules of the road and did a three point turn on a dual carriageway… That was just scary… It was a very funny night… Then today at co-op and me ibrar and isfan told unbelievable lies for no reason and had competitions on how could tell the biggest lie… Now back to university… and going to watch seinfeld! Seinfeld literally is too much!
