Here goes my first...

So its almost 2 am in the morning and I am sitting tucked in my bed with my daughter and husband. Life Mash Allah is good I have the two people who complete me right here by my side...but my mind keeps drifting to those for whom life isn't as normal...those who might be sitting in the hospital corridor dreading any news of their loved ones...or what about those who do not have their significant other in their lives anymore...

We all pretend to be empowered women who do not  need men in our life...but trust me deep in our hearts we know that if for nothing at all we crave for companionship...just a small peck on the cheek or your name being called out lovingly from the bed room for just a glass of water...makes you feel queasy in your tummy at times...the feeling of being needed...it completes you....and makes you look forward to the next day and the next and the next..and so on....

So let's cherish this feeling for as long as it lasts...for as long as I breath my last....I don't know about the rest but I somehow feel empowered when I have my companion by my side...always, for good or for bad....

A rendezvous with Ayeza Sumsam Mohiuddin (Brand Manager,Skin Health Care Category)

My meet-cute with Ayeza was out of any professional and academic settings, we met at a mutual relative's place and instantly clicked. She was a year younger than me and yet her take on life inspired me at that point in time too. We then lost touch of each other only to meet again at IBA, where we used to pass occasional glances and smiles as we both were too occupied to make a decent conversation.
Today, when I searched among my Facebook friends for an inspirational marketer, Ayeza's named popped in my mind and on my screen almost immediately,I reached out to her, not expecting her to message so promptly as I knew she is a busy young lady. But, this bright person made me awe struck once again, by the very manner in whichshe welcomed the idea of "The Placement Office", I could feel her giddy with excitement as she answered all my questions pain painstakingly detailing as much as possible. 
I hope our conversation with Ayeza today, can inspire hundreds and thousands more…

The curious case of PLAB

Today was a good day when my nagging self got hold of Dr. Usama Basit, who gave in to my constant messages and some thought provoking questions regarding the professional exams in the field of Medicine.

For all of you out there who what to save lives, do have a look at what our life saver  right here has to say about the much dreaded PLAB examination, a professional exam which helps you make way into the medicine in the UK.
What is the PLAB exam and how does it help in initiating a medical career in UK?
There are many routes of entry into the UK for doctors who wish to train here. The easiest and most common one is to take the PLAB  (or Professional and Linguistics Assessment Board) exam and become GMC certified. Let me tell you a bit about this - basically any country that you work in has their own authority that confirms that you are good to practice in that country.
