28 things about me

… that you probably didnt know except for my gal pals GWBE, Shaliya and Sree. I am:

1. Married and have a beautiful two year old yellow labrador named Winkie Poo.

2. Addicted to blogging.

3. A travel loving kinda person.

4. An undying supporter of all things female. Go girl power!

5. Trying my best to be ambidextrous. Can write with my left hand, albeit like a 5 year old, still will die trying.

6. Of the opinion that my own handwriting is swell.

7. Always scribbling me name all over a pad when I’m bored.

8. Someone who can finish a whole bottle of wine all by myself.

9. Easy going and a tad laid back.

10. A book worm-tail.

11. In possession of a short attention span as well as a selective memory, give or take.

12. Usually doing everything at once.

13. Extremely impulsive. I know for sure that some day in the future, I’m going to slap my forehead and say – Doh! What the hell was I thinking back then!

14. Afraid of growing old. I’m quite envious to see young people strut their stuff.

15. A Robin Williams fan. The Birdcage is my favourite movie although for the eclectic celebration of dance, I have no idea what type Fosse, Martha Graham or Twyla are.

16. Not one to have a lot of original ideas. So I borrowed this list from a really cool blog here.

17. A kind reader suggested I put #17 as ‘write well’. I’m vain enough to go by that suggestion without a hint of protest. In a nutshell, point 17 = vain.

18. Happy to be surrounded by funny people.

19. Usually smart mouthing most of the time. Lands me in trouble more often than I realize.

20. Prone to losing my temper when I can afford it.

21. Going to cry like Joey on my 30th birthday – Why God, why? Why’re you doing this to me???

22. Also going to wallop anyone who asks me when that is.

23. A Scrabble playing addict. I lose most of the times but other than that, I think its a really fun game.

24. Saying I dont care on a regular basis.

25. Also an internet addict. Most people crib about my toxic net dependancy. Unfailingly, I dont care.

26. An avid DVD collector. There are several DVD borrower nemesis among my friends though so that means my collection never grows.

27. An ironic linguist. I can speak passable Malayalam, thanks to my college days in Calicut, Kerala although I cannot speak my supposed mother tongue. I did say ironic, didnt I?

28. Always trying to learn from my mistakes. Back in college, like the Malayali staff used to say – Sometimes I am learning from my mistakes. Sometimes I am not learning from my mistakes.

Will keep adding to this list as and when I can. And yes, the next point will start from 29
