Newcastle University! Medicine! CRB! Apple!

November 13th, 2009

Whoa, 2009 has not been a good year for the blogging. In my defense, I’ve been busy. Ok, I’ve been semi-busy. Hah, completely not believable, yup I’ve been not busy.

Anyway…

Hii!

I’ve started Newcastle University! As you can tell by the title. I’m studying Medicine! As you can also tell by the title. Such exciting stuff! Although I think I might have covered some of this stuff in my last post… Oh well, never mind. Still can’t believe that I’m actually at University now.

Soo, what’s been happening you ask? Well, I’ve had a CRB check done. It came back clear. Yes, I’m just as shocked as you.

Was about to leave the University stuff but just remembered, I took blood from someone! Ok, wait, let me re-phrase that cos that just sounds like I stabbed someone in the street to take blood. We had a practical where we were practising venepuncture. T’was good fun, hands were shaking uncontrollably but when I picked up the needle, I was unbelievably still! Pierced the skin and successfully took blood from someone. See, it was all legal and above board, none of this stabbing business.

Right, I’m off to go watch a film. Or a movie. What’s the difference? I’m stuck. Film or movie? I’m gonna go with movie. I’m off to go watch a movie.

I’m sure I wanted to say something else but I can’t remember…

Oh wait, one more thing, I’m 19! Woo, not really that exciting… Not liking that I’m almost finished being a teenager. Less than a year left. Hmm, I feel as if I should do something this year…

Anyway, that’s me done. I’ll be back tomorrow with more stuff I remember. And I WILL be back tomorrow.

:)

It’s all over! Results day and other things!

August 25th, 2009

Hey,

Not blogged in ages. Since I last blogged a lot has happened. I’ll break it down for you.

I went to Newcastle and stayed for 2 weeks at the University. Throughout that time I was subjected to waaaay too many lectures about Liver Disease. Anyway, Had to do an exam and then a 2500 word essay on a new drug called Sorafenib for Liver Disease and whether it’s cost-effective on the NHS. And then had to do a 500 word reflection piece. All worked out good in the end. I PASSED IT! Got an email saying that ‘Congratulations! you have demonstrated potential to succeed at Newcastle University’. Yea, you’re damn right I have after the amount I work you made me do! :)

So anyway, on the same day it was Amina’s Birthday. Went to Mumtaz, Clarence Dock, Leeds. T’was a good night. There was no pianist so I sat down behind the piano and did the Rugrat’s theme tune! Got a bit embarassed when the manager started walking towards me so naturally, I ran. Anyway, was about to go home when my cousin decided to call us in for ‘10 minutes’ at midnight. This turned out to be 5 hours. Lol, me and my brother ended up going home at about 5 in the morning. We all just literally sat there and talked about things which I can’t even remember now and about how we wanted tea but couldn’t be bothered getting up to make it… Ickle cousin Muhammad Azeem stayed up with us until about 3 in the morning! He’s only 18 months old! He’s such a little cutey! I absolutely love him, I could actually just eat him up. His little smile and the way he laughs! Oh and the way he just stood against the sofa. He was like a little old man. Me and my brother said he just needed a pipe and slippers. Aaah, so cute.

Then it was back to spending the rest of the week crapping myself over A-Level results…

Thursday came. I woke up at about 7 in the morning, checked UCAS and … I GOT IN! Still can’t believe it! But it gets better. Went in to school at about 10 to collect my results, opened them and FUCK ME I couldn’t believe how well I’d done! I got straight A’s! Still can’t believe it! I got all 3 A’s! And I also managed to get an A in my Extended Project Qualification and passed my AQA Baccalaureate! Bloody hell, I was having a good day!

So yea, now I’ve got in at Newcastle University to study Medicine! Still can’t believe that I’m actually going to Medical School! I’m gonna be a Doctor! Bryony is calling me Dr iSaf. Ok fine, I made that up, she said Dr Saf, I just added the i onto Saf. Lol, iSaf.

It was good to see everyone again on Results Day. Bryony, Emad, Humaira, Zainab, Jenny, Andy, Sal. It was great. I had a great 7 years with you all (2 years with some)!

Us lot in the corner!

Us lot in the corner!

I wish you guys all the best in the future. And don’t ever forget me! We have to stay in touch! I’m re-opening the forum for us lot but more just as an ever lasting memory to Sebastien, Cockroft and the you-know-what toys from Hong Kong.

Before I end -

@ Zainab – You probably won’t be reading this but we have to go to Morrisons and try out their new desserts. They have a new range in and I took pics of it!

@ Humaira – Keep killing people with the knives that you’ve secretly been carrying about in your bag since you were 8. Sorry, was I not supposed to tell people? :)

@ Emad – You’re just a weird fellow Apple Dude.

@ Bryony – Yes, you know too much about ‘these’ things. But seriously, I’m gonna miss our times together. Remember the dragging you out from the common room into the pouring rain outside? Good times.

@Jenny – Fellow short person. What are we gonna do at Uni around these tall people!

That’s me done.

Goodnight :)

Michael Jackson Dies, Fish gets battered…

June 26th, 2009

Hey,

Michael Jackson has died. It actually is quite unbelievable. One of the greatest entertainers to ever walk this earth has gone. Despite all that was said about him, it’s still sad that he’s died. May he rest in peace.

But seriously, the T.V channels are getting on my nerves now. If I here Uri Geller’s voice again on any T.V channel, I will kill myself. We all know he’s died now, let’s sort of move on instead of going on about it on every single T.V programme. Even bloody Eastenders re-recorded a little section to mention it! I mean come on!

Spent all day today watching Tennis. Good fun. Federer lost a set! It was weird but still, at least he won. GO FEDERER! Realy enjoying Wimbledon this year, nice to actually be able to watch it given that I’m at home doing absolutely nothing.

Djokovic beat Mardy Fish. Straight sets. Not really much more to say. He’s really on top form this year. Really wanted Djokovic and Federer in the final but it looks like that ain’t happening seeing as they’re on the same side draw. Oh well. Oh and that was what the title was about. Djokovic battered Fish. D’ya get it? Fish? Battered? Play on words? I’m good, huh?

Haas and Cilic was a great match. I do feel sorry for Haas given that he was 2 sets up but then sort of just lost it all. Poor lad. Cilic clawed his way back and then almost won the match but Haas got going again. Then it all got stopped due to bad lighting so that should be good tomorrow. Lol, I just read what I wrote and it just sounds stupid, ‘Got going again’? Who says that? Other then me of course…

Saw Mr Jones (History teacher) driving up and down my street four times. I think he was lost… lol. It was hilarious. I was walking down the street and he just sort of went up the street, then down again, then up and down. You get the picture. Actually, I wish I did. I was gonna take a picture but damn you O2 for texting me some settings at the wrong time. Nearly dropped the iPhone when it vibrated. Emphasis on almost. If I did then, this blog post would probably have been coming from the grave.

Oh and before I go, I’m liking Twitter. I like tweeting directly from iPhone. And I managed to integrate it into my blog with a bit of clever PHP coding (done by someone else…) but put in by me! Now my lastest tweet comes up as my status up on the top right! Good stuff.

That’s all from me today.

Listen to? Soulja Boy – Kiss Me Thru The Phone

Exams are over!

June 19th, 2009

Hi,

It’s been a very very long time. I can’t believe that I’ve finished my exams and finished at HGS! It’s very weird that I’ve finished school. I’m gonna miss HGS. Took loads of pictures on the last day which I still need to upload… I’ll do that over the week-end.

Exams went… shit. The first exams went fine and I’m sure I did good on them but the last 2 for all the subjects were depressing. I don’t wanna think about them anymore. *erases from memory*

I’ve got nothing more to blog about now…I’ll be back tomorrow with some interesting stuff.

Byee :)

JLS TO WIN!!!

December 11th, 2008

Heyy,

First up, Some pics:

Sal being molested by Andy. Aww...

Sal being molested by Andy. Aww...

Sal being molested by Andy. Aww...

T’was fun at Lunch. Took the pics for fun. Wasn’t actually gonna blog em cos I usually can’t be bothered transferring the pics but Sal told me not to blog the pics so naturally, I blog the pics. Oh and I’ve facebooked em too :P LOL. Hah. Fucker don’t tell me what I can and can’t do. Rest assured I’ll do the complete opposite. :)

So, Eid. Too many people were ill. Brother, Mum, Dad, Aunty along with a whole heap of other people.

I really don’t know what else to blog about.

Was in the library today and was lying down on the floor trying to do Chemistry revision (as you do) with Emad making sly sexual comments every 2 minutes (as you don’t). I said something about my boxers showing and I was pulling my t-shirt down a bit when Emad randomly blurted out stuff about the boxers he was wearing. I just cracked up. I was like, ‘IT WASN’T A SHARING MOMENT’! How can someone possibly slip into conversation that they are wearing chequered boxers? Completely beyond me, as if I wanted to know!. Almost had tears coming out of my eyes. Hilarious.

Biology was good because the evil Dr wasn’t in. T’was embarassing when I walked into the class and the technician women said your teacher isn’t here and I just started screaming ‘YES!!!’ and jumped up and down like a lunatic. But then two dopey students (Hannah and Shezhad) went up to another class whose teacher said she’s combine our too classes! I refused to go up to lesson so three people came down and tried to lift me up to Biology from the common room! I grabbed hold of Zainab and then the table and refused to go! Hannah eventually convinced me to go so we went up and made noise and annoyed the teacher until she ended up kicking us out. HAH. Serves her right.

People are trying to ruin our outing to Pizza Hut…

It was Farhan’s Birthday last week! T’was fun. Expect some pictures soon. Although knowing me, this could take a while!

And finally, did you watch X Factor last week? It was great. JLS did a great rendition of Umbrella.

JLS TO WIN!!!

Anyway, thats me done. You can have a listen to one of my favourite tracks at the moment.

Akon – Right Now (Na Na Na):

It’s been a long time!

November 27th, 2008

Hey,

It’s been aaages since I last blogged. For the first time ever I have actually been busy and doing work. I know! We’ll have a little catchup:

Happy 18th Birthday! I’m 18 years old now! I’m sorta running out of things to say about me being 18! Errrm, I’ll try another variation. Saf’s 18 years old! Ok, even by my standards that was rubbish…

I’m suddenly thinking of Huddersfield Pizza Hut and the discount cards we all took out. No Rafa, you can’t get a discount at Pizza Hut with a Matalan card.

House Debates – I went to them! Ok, I went to one.  But it was funny. Apparently I made an inappropriate comment towards a member of staff. T’was funny though, me and Zainab couldn’t decide who would get up and say it so I ended up shouting it out. Ben refused to answer my question.

Too much Cookie Dough and Nacho’s are being eaten in our free’s. Me and Zainab are just junkie’s. Desert Friday is going great. We’ve had a lot of deserts, even if it took us about 30 mins to decide every week… We still haven’t tried the disgusting looking Silicon Tit…

Me and Rafa keep having water fights. I threw a little bit of water on her so she threw a cup of water on me and drenched me while everyone in the common room just had a good laugh. I was literally dripping water. I got her back and since then we just sorta throw water on each other every now and again…

Apparently a teacher seems to love me… We’re currently devising tests to confirm this…

I’ve done my EPQ! The damn thing is complete. Did the presentation today! All done. Finished. 5000 words. Not slept properly for the last week. But I’m done!

Apple are still brilliant contrary to what Emad might say.

Humaira seems to be having dependency issues. I mean, just because I’m no longer with her in Biology she’s been having a ’shaky start’. You’ll get over it. It’ll be hard, I mean it is me after all, but it’ll happen eventually. :P

Marry, Kiss or throw got turned into Marry, Fuck or throw. I always find a way to dirtify things…

I might have told my Chemistry teacher (the nice one, not the Devil/Beaver) Zainab’s pornstar name – Zainab Lixalot – after which he thought I was disgusting and that I had crossed the student-teacher boundary. Good stuff.

The Devil/beaver Chemistry teacher will be killed. My god he’s gonna be the death of me. I actually almost cried in the lesson. It was so painful, that by the end (when he held us hostage and wouldn’t let us go) I was contemplating drawing blood and giving it to him, JUST LET US GO FUCKER…

I’ve decided that I’m much less tolerant of people this year…

And as a side note, before I go, Zara and Asfa seem to be having some sort of sordid secret affair… :P They said they were in bed, and I just wrongly assumed together… Hehe.

Saf :)

Cranedale and the cool hat…

September 14th, 2008

Hi,

I feel like I shud’ve blogged ages ago but I’m just lazy…

So anyway, went to The Cranedale Centre (right spelling of centre/er?) for a 3 day residential trip. T’was wet, cold, muddy and generally miserable weather but still loads of fun.

Monday
Got there at some stupid time in the morning. I was sleepy and hungry as usual. Got shown to our rooms and went straight to doing some freshwater ecosystem work. Don’t ask. I refused to partake in the dirty insect-y stuff and just watched from afar as everyone else did the work. Basically did more work for the rest of the day. Went to the bar to get some Coke (took us about 30 minutes to pluck up the courage to do this…). Supposed to go to sleep at 11 (I know! Waaaaay too early!) but thankfully I had the EEE laptop with me and got a weak wifi internet signal in bed so streamed the Federer v Murray match (thanks to brother sending me the link!)

Tuesday
Went on a walk which seemed like forever! A million miles or something. Was wet and cold. But it was hilarious simply because everyone fell over at some point or got stuck in the mud. Great stuff. Managed to get pictures of too many people stuck. I’m not a nice person. A woman came in with an owl! T’was very cool! Again, we were supposed to go to sleep at 11. Instead I was creeping across the courtyard to Hannah’s room at 11:30. Talking to Hannah and Co and then Biology teacher/my form tutor came in! Hannah pushed me into the wardrobe and I hid there for like 10 minutes whilst she told the girls what the arrangements were for the Wednesday! Hilarious. Then we were creeping around the courtyards to go round up some more guys. Faheem was dressed up as a girl. The other Fahim and Zara were singing. Both are REALLY good. Went to sleep at about 3 in morning.

Wednesday
Woke up after hardly any sleep. Went to Bridlington beach thingy and sorta messed around learnt cool biology stuff… :)
Got into coach to come home ( we got double seats!) whilst Humaira spazzily waved and said ‘Hello’ to people on the motorway…

Got some clips of Rafa singing and falling over which I’ll upload tomorrow along with some pics.

T’is been a very abridged version of the Cranedale trip but I’m tired and sleepy so I don’t care. :P Lol.

Au Revoir :)

Rant #1 – The Gadget Show

August 25th, 2008

Hi,

I’m just gonna go straight into my rant…

I was watching an episode of ‘The Gadget Show’ dated 14th July 2008 just a couple of days ago. Reason for watching was because my cousin Asifa (Hi Asifa! and Zain and the Baby and JB!) got me intrigued on the ‘ZPen’ from Dane-elec (which looks really cool and I want it!). So anyway, I was watching it and turns out they were also reviewing the Apple TV made by… you guessed it, Apple.

I’ll cut to the chase, Jason (the reviewer) said that Apple needs to ‘reduce that 4 hour wait’ because it’s ‘just a little bit too long’ when you’re renting/downloading a HD movie. Can you believe it?!?! Blaming Apple! Of course it’s gonna take 4 fucking hours to download a HD movie from Apple when your using shit broadband in the UK! It’s not Apple’s fault but more the fault of the ISP’s. Apple are innovating and churning out beautiful sexy technology to revolutionise the way we do things but the ISP’s are still stuck in the old age, with slow internet or a ridiculously expensive price for moderately fast internet!
Therefore it is not Apple’s fault. If you want a faster download time, get faster internet or download SD content. You can’t download HD movies and expect Apple to have compressed them down to about the size of a SD movie because otherwise it’s no longer HD you fucking pillock. It’s gonna be SD. So blame the ISP’s and not Apple!

/Rant over

In all fairness though, Jason did say that Apple had an exciting product and he is a bit of a mac fan so I’ll left him off. Just this once mind. I won’t be so easily calmed down next time…

Also, Happy Birthday Mum! She’s like a million years old today :p Hehe. I made her a cake! It had strawberry’s in it with loads of chocolate (both milk and white)! I was so proud of it. Tasted and looked very nice if I may say so myself.
Aunty said that I was a right little girl! I’ll take that as a complement… somehow… I guess she meant to say that girls are usually associated with such perfection and beautiful cookery. What can I say? I’m great. Better than a girl. Absolutely brilliant. I’m just a great all-rounder. :)
Me and bro got Mum a Bose iPod speaker thingy. T’is very loud…

Tune in to tomorrow for another rant tomorrow. I believe it’s gonna be to do with Chocolate and the way it’s promoted… lol. :)

Good Night-i-o :)

AS level results, Surgery Work Exp, Rent Boy and Tina

August 19th, 2008

Hi,

Lack of blogging has been due to busy-ness, avoiding talking about going to pick up AS grades and then overly happy-ness from looking at my grades! (none of this makes sense…)

So yea, went to get my AS grades. Was so nervous. Thought I’d failed em all. Turns out I didn’t. And I did pretty good on ‘em! I got AABB! I was very happy. Still very happy. And everyone else did really good as well so congratulations to all you other AS people out there! Bring on A2!

Been doing a week of work at a GP surgery. Funnn. Sat and went on facebook on computer for a while and did a bit of helping out. It was good.

Rent Boy. Kaj. Rent Boy. Kaj. Rent Boy. Kaj.
Had the funniest conversation with her. She laughed at my MSN display name and then said, ‘Can I rent you out?’. That’s when I sorta got worried. Turns out she didn’t know what a rent boy was! T’is was hilarious! I cracked up. Then directed her to the actual definition:

A young male prostitute, who ’sells’ the temporary enjoyment of his body

Was in Trafford Centre (or Center – never understood the difference between that and can’t be bothered searching so someone point it out to me in the comments – relying on you Humaira!) and now I’ve forgotten what I was writing about and I’ve gotta stop and read what I’ve been writing. Hang on a minute.
Yea, I was in Trafford Centre today and saw Tina (Michelle Keegan) from Coronation Street! I know! She’d obviously been on holiday cos she was so tanned I swear she was darker then me. But I was being the mad stalker and followed her then walked in front then quickly turned back to look at her again! ( Lol, don’t hate me – you know who you are :P )
For the normal male readers (unlike Emad):

 

Michelle Keegan - Tina from Coronation Street

And on that note, I’ll be off to bed :P

Night :)

Rent Boy, Frank’s Cousin and Humaira the Paki Bitch

August 7th, 2008

Hi,

Oh just to avoid confusion, there’s no link between me being a Rent Boy and Frank’s Cousin and the great big Paki.

Yea, I’m a Rent Boy. Saf the Rent Boy. Rent Boy Saf. You gotta admit it’s got quite a ring to it. I love it. I swear people think I’m a naive, innocent boy. I was on the phone to someone and she asked me if I knew what ‘Rent Boy’ meant! Yea, of course, I said, it’s a boy who goes to collect his tenant’s rent. FUCK ME, I’m not thick. Lol. I get paid well. :P

Frank’s Cousin, Sana. Her comments crack me up. So sweet of her to call me gay and then a dumbass. Awww. I feel fuzzy. :)

And Humaira is a great big paki bitch. We’ve started to resort to ‘positive racism’. It’s great. Just sorta freaks people out when we’re having a group msn convo and me and Humaira just start pelting each other with racial abuse. Or when I started shouting racist comments over the phone in the Hospital canteen and Emad, Lauren and people around me just stared…

Abuse from you Bryony will not be tolerated! :)

Anyway, haven’t really done much else recently. The building work in house is giving me a headache and making me wake up early. Not liking it. Thankfully, it’s almost finished now.

Adios :)
