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!

2009 has been and is quickly going… The first decade of the second millenium going with it… It really doesnt seem like over 10 years ago Manchester United won the treble… This time 10 years ago i was still at rainhall road community primary school! I wasnt even at High School!!! Thats just messed up!!!  But lets just stick to the year blog firstly cause thats a big enough task in itself… So i think it would make sense to start of in the month of… This is ridiculosly long… As in the same length of a piece of work i have to hand in for uni… Just warning you… I appologize but i had an eventful year… i tried to condense it as much as i could!

January

The new years started with me coming back from America (I just realised that was a year ago… that really doesnt seem a year ago!!!) January is a month which is always hard to talk about in a year review because it was so long ago and i forget easily… Mohsins birthday is in january and i think we went to nawaabs and shisha at cafe lounge if i remember correctly… Pretty standard if im honest… Oh no it wasnt we went to LUGE for mohisns birthday…  That was hilarious… All of us there doing luge thinking we are proper hard… with 6 year olds!!! it was cold and class!!! I also made a brief fleeting appearance at aneesas birthday bonanza where i hit all the traffic it took me an hour and half and i went for 30 mins and then left and was knackered for work the next day… the things i do for my friends!!!

February

February is Asjads Birthday and Atafs birthday. Ataf’s birthday resulted in a bowling session which was fun then shimlas which is always enjoyable!!! Asjads birthday was just the birthday when we planned to do everything and then ended up going to driving range in trafford centre. I think the original plan was knowsley safari park then derbyshire then chester zoo… It was funny cause there was so much planning and just not much actually doing! I think we always went

March

Sabis birthday bonanza was in march. That was a standard food and sheesha number. Im sure march was when me and asjad drove our cars into each other outside dicky road. For no real reason! Also march was when me and amzy started caining the Leeds missions and loving it big time… I really do have a love for leeds now! There was also the legendary walks along the canals and talks and all that march was very intresting if i remember but i cant divulge too much information or else i might get fixed!!!

April

I went to Italy in April for 5 days with ataf and khuram. It was tooooooo much! Chach and pupo and the two kids are unbelievably fun! I really enjoyed there and we conqured rome in a day contrary to song lyrics which may suggest otherwise I loved Italy it was brilliant so many little stories to tell about the full trip like when i tried to speak italian and the asked me a question and i crapped myself. How we got lost in the conveniance store. Alfie waking me up at 7:00 am and the disgust on my face and my chacha javed destroying us at cards! I really do love going to italy! I just like chilling with them if im honest. It was also my birthday but im not a big fan of celbrating overly so i went home to watch united vs porto with the boys if im honest with you on that day and ronaldo didnt disapoint scoring the most beautiful goal of the year for me on my birthday!

May

May was the exam period. I worked so hard at the end of this year just so i can pass if im honest. It was a lot of effort and time put in and by the end of it i was confident of passing although i didnt get stunning grades i passed with no re sits… and i did mess about a lot during the year and not really put effort in… i  mean in retrospect i went on two holidays… casually during the year… what on earth was i thinking i wouldnt change it if i was to do it again its all about life experince! It was also Nayabs birthday bonanza! Where we did laserquest and went to rice and then sheesha! Mohsin won at the laserquest and that was fun too! I also went to Ibrahim’s sisters wedding in this month with majid which was legendary… And some kind of champions league final happened which i have no recollection off…

June

The month when mohsin took sabi to be his wife and sabi took mohsin to be his husband. I was the best man (far from cause i was really ill that day) Me and sadif solidered to the wedding even though ill! I was really happy for them and it was probably my best moment of the year behind a moment in september… June then was the month when mohisn went on his trip. In more me related news that actual day was the day when i first felt ill with my stomach pains. I remember that cause i freaked ataf out big time with how ill i was it was a real action packed day!!!

July

I spent most of July working and saving up for the immenant arrival of karol! I also spent time with the boys and general chilling and LEGENDARY cricket games with the boys cause of how YA MAN GULLY cained it in world cup 20 20 i think this was June and July. I actually just remember them now… We had proper good games and even got baseball going down with tennis and footbal… It was actually alright if i can remember now and naughty little laugh!!! July i was getting a bit iller and also caining it with amer ditta on missions regularly during the week!!!

August

Mohsin came back around this time and Karol arrived in England. I travelled to London then went back to manchester all before 12 on one day… thats what you call mileage! Then we chilled had a muddy birthday bonanza which was a top laugh with charades and all that and also Sadif and khawers birthday bonanza another laser quest mission and nandos food which again was fun and i cant remeber who won that… i think it was a team thing and i dont think it was me who won! Also me and karol went to edinburgh and london and leeds and had fun in the capital with aneesa the legend. All round really enjoyed the whole karol coming over experince. Although i have to say its harder to host then it is to visit!!! So much pressure!!! August also saw me lose my phone and break my laptop. Not gonna lie to you them bits were annoying to say the least. I also had a lot more testing being done at this time and going into september aswell. Rozay also started this month but unfortunately i wasnt able to keep them cause of my illness. I also found out that mohisn and sabi were expecting a child this month! This was another bit of awesome news!!!

September

You go back to university in september so its chilling and all that but i had lost a lot of weight in this time and i was just given treatment (the roids!!!) i was looking very weak at this time and i remember one particulor day in september after eid where i wasnt really well. Because of that i didnt really do much except start uni and just be ill if im honest! September wasnt the greatest month

October

Fully into the swing of the things in uni and things looking up for me health wise aswell! I was getting on with work and actually keeping my head down not missing lectures and actually staying on top of work (this came to benefit me big time in the next month) I started blogging more prominently and had some top chilling sessions with the manchester crew! Chilling with muddy ibby chantelle and zainab on one night with the best mix ever! and Ya man Talli cained it when he moved in had some top chilling session with him and me and mohsin and muddy became scandalously middle class and going for breakfast and that. October also wasnt the best in a way aswell! for reasons i dont really need to discuss! But it was quite funny and it was topped off with the INFAMOUS ISOC event where me and mohsin stuck out like sore thumbs and mohsin just made inapporpriate comments throughout then adeel and mohsin talked to females and everyone was looking at them and i was in the cross fire dazed and confused!!! then we went to asia’s after and got involved in a war zone which was so much fun i only wish i had popcorn if i was honest!!! It was so funny it was first time at the flat and it was awkward yet i buzzed off it!

November

The month me and mohsin were supposed to go on a oslo trip lol! why did we think we would go there!!! This month i got ill badly again after having a good month and that lead to me having to miss a week of uni and so falling behind. Luckily i am very privelleged to have a good isd and dmerm group in order to be able to finish the work without me being there even though i still did my share through the pain!!! It all started my illness returning on the night of chantelles birthday bonanza ironically… Which was still fun and i did get her an awesome present!!! I was so out of it though during the day which was disappointing… i remember waking up and giving her the present and i cant remember much about that night apart from it was her and tali and me and i must have been saying some random stuff! Then at the end of the month it was the legendary SAEED BIRTHDAY BONANZA FOLLOWED BY ZAHID BIRTHDAY BONANZA! both fun in different ways… Saeed cause it was purely a lads night out and zahids cause it was everyone and me h and riz singing cained it! all round had fun!!! then i was ill again at the end of the month.

December

Saqub and Farhat had there first child in this month. Hamzah is its name. I was in hospital and i got diagnosed with crohns only for a few days later to be told i might not and might have tv instead. We cained the monopoly playing market and generally have been lazing about. Finished my work and i dont know how cause i was pretty ill! Thats pretty much been it for the year!!!

Now to review the decade in a paragraph. I mean in this decade i have grown so close to the boys and if i take one thing it will be that family is the most important thing to you and i dont mean family as in brothers and sisters but your cousins aswell. I mean i am so privelledged to be so close to my cousins and not be in a family where theres arguements all the time between families and how close we all are is something which i am grateful for. I mean the full community looks out for each other and its class! I cant believe how much i think i have grown over the year and how much things actually change over the year. This maybe my last year in education and then its the real world… How scary is that! Im not ready to grow up yet. If you have read all the way to the end of this i have to say well done! even im not going to be able to read through this again! I hope this new year brings all of you fun and good times and i hope the past decade has brought you many great memories and hears to another decade of great memories!

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!!!
