3 Things About Me
- I don’t exactly have OCD but if I move my left hip by just briefly flexing the muscle, then I will need to do it with the right hip too. And I do this until the total amount equals to four to even it out. This applies to various other parts too like shoulders, toes, etc.
- I had an anxiety attack when I was a child because none of my friends were available to go outside and play. I do not like being alone. I love watching TV, but I always prefer it when I can watch it with someone or just have someone in the room to share it with.
- My nostrils flare and my eyes look at different spots in my setting when I talk. I didn’t realise this until I made a video a few weeks ago. It’s pretty hilarious!
My best posts:
1.The Ditch List – The Seven Types Of People You Need To Ditch Stat – this is the post that I worked hardest on, got realest with and had the most fun with. FYI, if I hurt anyone’s feelings who read it… I’m not sorry.
2. Number One Game – on saying no to competing in races you never volunteered to be a part of.
3. 5 Things I Like About Myself Tag – a tag I created on WordPress to promote self-love.
4. The Terrible Guest – I love how poetry can be interpreted in the most different ways according to the individual. I don’t think anyone correctly guessed who the terrible guest is. The Terrible Guest is the depressive episodes for a person with bipolar disorder, mania is included as is normal phases.
Suziey’s Questions:
- Is there one movie (or TV) adaptation that you liked better than the book it was based on?
I’ve mentioned in The Cliché Book Tag, that I much preferred the film version of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. I would like to add the Pride and Prejudice film adaptation with Keira Knightley to this list. Elizabeth Bennett was everything I envisioned her to be in this version more so than the TV series version. I found the book to be a difficult read and struggled with the writing style which was strange because I had no problem in this regard with other works by Jane Austen.
- When you were little, what did you want to be when you grew up? Did it change? What is your dream job now?
I wanted to be an actress for a long time, but I knew that it wouldn’t align with my faith and as I grew older it changed to journalism which, again, the type of journalism I wanted to do (broadcast journalism) didn’t align with my faith either. So, you could say I had a strong desire to be in front of the camera. Now my dream job is author/copywriter and you can see the love of journalism is still strong with my posts that are related to global justice and feminism.
- What are you most proud of? It can be anything, no matter how big or small.
Reporting to the police for issues that are (and now ‘were’) considered taboo in the Muslim community and especially without anyone’s support (at first).
- What book world would you love to live in (besides the wizarding world of Harry Potter)?
First, a thank you is in order to Suziey for excluding HP out of this because it’s too much of an obvious answer that almost renders the question pointless. I would love to live in the Shire in Middle Earth with Sam as my husband. Can you imagine how much fun that would be?
- What would you want your rapper name to be?
My Habbo Hotel name was BootyMa back in secondary school but obviously I don’t want to objectify myself. My MSN name was Princess Tantrum so I’ll go with that or Sophski. Actually, Sophski is a tad more gangster and inspires a little more fear.
You’re nominated:

Can I ever thank you enough? Love your questions, your enthusiasm and I can’t tell you how proud I am to say I know a fellow blogger who has good contact with the police. 😉
Just kidding, of course. I really admire your desire to make this world a better place by starting at the grassroot level of reporting local issues. It’s people like you actually end up bringing positive change! Hats off to you! I can only aspire to that….
And Hogwarts is my dream, too.

Thank you and I can’t tell you how happy I am to find someone on WordPress who’s also passionate about politics, justice and feminism (it’s a miracle).
There’s no point in preaching for equal and human rights if when things actually go down, you do nothing. It’s pointless. I saw this nurse once preach no violence against women but when someone close to them were sexually harassed, they did nothing. What was the point then?
I’m sure you won’t be ‘aspiring’ for long, you’re already making change using your WP platform, go out there and make equal rights (and Hogwarts) a reality! 🙏🙏

Congratulations Sophia! I am congratulating you not just for the award but also for the fact that you have broken down the stereotype that surrounds the idea of women contacting police.
Way to go girl.
P.S Sophski can count lil’feet as her huge fan already.

Oh…whoops…I thought the girl resembled Mila Kunis. But then I thought it was you because you were talking about your habits. I’m terrible at recognising celebrities; especially since they look different in almost every picture.

They can be hard to recognise as are most people until you’ve met them a fair number of times that their face is finally etched into your memory. 😂
I will be putting up a video in a week or two so you’ll be able to see how much my nostrils flare (it’s their default state).
