Chronicles of Ania: Remembering Ejaz Bhai
http://aniasdesk.blogspot.com/2012/07/remembering-ejaz-bhai.html
Wednesday, July 11, 2012. Today was one of those days when you just wake up sad. July 11, 1999, was a tragic day for our entire family when we lost Dr. Ejaz Haider: a son, father, husband, brother, friend and mentor. Ejaz Bhai was a lot of things to a lot of people. He was brilliant in his professional life, compassionate in all his human interactions and a role-model for a lot of us. What do you call a person like him: Perfect. A likeable perfect. So what was your favourite memory of Ejaz Bhai? Ejaz was...

Chronicles of Ania: Maths 101 for Parents
http://aniasdesk.blogspot.com/2012/07/maths-101-for-parents.html
Tuesday, July 17, 2012. Maths 101 for Parents. Some Equations only make sense when you become a parent:. Time = (Chores) (Toddler) x 1000. Grocery - Toddler = Fun. Sugar in the afternoon = 1/ (baby bed time). Toddlers's Energy Levels Parent's Patience Levels. Toddler's preferred time in the park - infinity. Algebra used to be one of my favourite subjects (yes, I am a nerd). Should brush up my skills and try and create new equations! So do you have an equation that relates your latest parenting dilemma?

Chronicles of Ania: Life as in Islamabad (2007)
http://aniasdesk.blogspot.com/2012/07/life-as-in-islamabad-2007.html
Wednesday, July 11, 2012. Life as in Islamabad (2007). Published June 5, 2007. Background: This is an old piece published in 2007 when I was working and living (it up) in Islamabad. I had just returned home after a work-related conference in Orlando, Florida. Through this article I was trying to capture my average weekend in Islamabad. Things were quite exciting in the city in those days: Chicks with Sticks refers to the Jamia Hafsa. Gals trying to stir things up. No one took them seriously. Traditional ...

Chronicles of Ania: Mommy Moments
http://aniasdesk.blogspot.com/2012/11/mommy-moments.html
Tuesday, November 20, 2012. I was home-locked for a few weeks as I managed to fracture my foot over the Canadian thanksgiving long weekend. More on that later. I decided to make the most of these days by de-cluttering the house. Every day started with a new project and I was so happy with the end results I could stare at my perfect closets for hours. Ofcourse after all this effort I have become quite an organization-Nazi and on everyone's case to put things in their right place. View my complete profile.

Chronicles of Ania: Magic of the Printed Word
http://aniasdesk.blogspot.com/2012/07/magic-of-printed-word.html
Tuesday, July 10, 2012. Magic of the Printed Word. I used to write a lot for the Friday Times and The News on Sunday, two weekly publications in Pakistan, a few years ago. Sunday newspaper reading was always a favourite activity in our house and it was difficult to get hold of your favourite section. We used to get The Muslim and Daily Jang, before Muslim was replaced by The News. There is something about seeing your name and writing in print on actual paper (which smells amazing after all these years)&#...

Tuesday, July 10, 2012. Be Smart Act Dumb. Published in The Friday Times, March 2007. This is an old article i wrote five years back, when I was a high-flying corporate slave.
