Khadija Ejaz: Method Writer
http://khadijaejaz.blogspot.com/2012/09/method-writer.html
Friday, September 14, 2012. Newspaper cutting from Muscat about an opera set in ancient Egypt. I later went and rebuilt the house using a shoebox and used my miniature animal toys to play in it. My favourite was the cat that was of the colour of the chicken curry my mother would make. The cat was always the heroine of all my games, and often another animal would be in love with her, but she would be too alone in her great thoughts and adventures to notice. Friday, September 14, 2012. Hijab hood = hijood.

Khadija Ejaz: The Hated One
http://khadijaejaz.blogspot.com/2012/09/the-hated-one.html
Thursday, September 20, 2012. On October 30, 2011, some young people I had met at the NDTV media institute became one:. One year," the old man almost growled as he wagged a gnarly finger at his daughter. His son, his younger more menacing version, darkly looked on. "One year, and then you are back.". The old man put his finger away and eyed the Sphinx before him. He didn't trust women, particularly silent ones, even if it were his daughter,. Would he listen to her, would he see her? She remembered the fi...

Khadija Ejaz: I Wanted to be a Graduate Student
http://khadijaejaz.blogspot.com/2012/07/i-wanted-to-be-graduate-student.html
Sunday, July 15, 2012. I Wanted to be a Graduate Student. I wondered if the Italian American professor in front of me could tell that I was dying on the inside. His last name was Romano. Like Ray Romano, like Romano's Macaroni Grill. Did he know how badly I needed an assistantship? Did this professor in front of me understand that? You don't have anything even in the Tulsa branch? I wanted to cry because hope felt more terrifying than giving up did. It was cruel, it hurt. I sat there before him i...Just ...

Khadija Ejaz: Two Indians Walked Into a Grocery Store
http://khadijaejaz.blogspot.com/2013/12/two-indians-walked-into-grocery-store.html
Friday, December 13, 2013. Two Indians Walked Into a Grocery Store. The middle-aged, obese, white man on the mobility scooter had started talking to us in the grocery store after asking my husband for help with a container of milk that had been out of his reach. You guys have been married for less than three years," he had announced suddenly. "Be nice to each other, okay? Don't divorce, just don't do it." He looked at us more closely. Where are you guys from? But you must be very Americanised by now?

Khadija Ejaz: 4/1/15 - 5/1/15
http://khadijaejaz.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 29, 2015. A squishy white college student. Sat in her car. Parked by the curb. Outside the school of music. Her windows were up. The music was on. It could have been techno or could have been hip-hop. Her clothes were stretched against her lumpy body. Folding on itself in layers of fat. She was squishy looking. She didn't notice me. She was looking at herself in the mirror. Wednesday, April 29, 2015. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Creve Coeur, Missouri, United States.

Khadija Ejaz: Reverse Culture Shock in Reverse
http://khadijaejaz.blogspot.com/2013/12/reverse-culture-shock-in-reverse.html
Friday, December 13, 2013. Reverse Culture Shock in Reverse. One year of hard living in Delhi wiped out ten years' worth of social integration in America for me. I was quite Americanised when I used to live here before, but now I feel like I'm in a foreign country. I speak so much Hindustani at home these days that talking to an American in English feels.like an effort. I sometimes mistakenly even use a Hindustani word or two in my English!

Khadija Ejaz: Dream Tenant
http://khadijaejaz.blogspot.com/2012/09/dream-tenant.html
Thursday, September 20, 2012. On October 3, 2011, I fictionalised myself because I thought it would help me make sense:. Between sobs, but she couldn't be sure. What kind of a person talks like that anyway, it made no sense. The girl had first started asking that question 5 years ago. "What is real? She had asked her mother, but her mother had not understood the question. ". Tell me what is real? What is real, what is real. Thursday, September 20, 2012. Is this really autobiographical, Khadija? Its 2012,...
