25 random things about me…

Somebody tagged me with this nasty thing in Facebook because of which I had to write 25 random things about me…

1) Good things first, I am extremely hard working. Somehow I don’t lose energy till the task is completed. But, when I do not have much to do, I procrastinate things to the very last minute and waste time on useless things…so, I always like to have loads of pending things left…

2) I am an ardent believer of Almighty and destiny. Even after putting our best, if we don’t get right opportunities at right time, the efforts go waste…so, I attribute all my success to Almighty first before thinking about my hardwork…

3) In my childhood my favorite color was Red…but somehow changed it to blue in past few years…you can see a blue shade in everything i do..my shirts, my blog, my presentation backgrounds, my project report backgrounds…my mind doesn’t think out of blue…

4) Though I watch movies from all languages, I only listen to Tamil songs…somehow couldn’t change this habit…

5) My memory is content specific…I remember lyrics of several hundreds of Tamil songs…I could still remember the lyrics after several years…but I forget subjects immediately after exams

6) The only thing I am afraid of is DOG…once a dog chased me for nearly half a mile and I luckily escaped

7) I had an aversion towards Curd (Yogurt), Butter Milk and Butter till my age of 22…I even leave the place if someone is eating any of these…but, now these are integral part of my life…in fact, its a huge transformation in my food habits since I came out of my house for work

8) I am extremely bold towards incidents…I never lose hope and courage till the very end…my policy is simple – ‘except for death, nothing is end of life’

9) Having said that, I cried for almost every exam till 12th standard because of ‘exam fear’…I study at the very last moment and get afraid of the portion left to be read…till my mom says ‘don’t cry…just get (score) whatever you can’, I keep crying and reading… I didn’t write my quarterly and half yearly exams in my 12th standard as I fell sick because of ‘exam fear’…on the day of last exam of half yearly, my uncle slapped me and dragged me to the exam hall…i scored 97% without reading anything…thats the last day I cried for an exam

10) My mind is very ‘relative’…I automatically remember all things I heard, read or seen related to a topic as soon as that topic is being discussed…

11) I plan for far off things but do not plan for immediate things…for instance, I do not have a plan for next week but I have a plan for what I should do after my age of 40

12) I started reading things in English and conversing in English only 8 years back

13) The only thing I feel bad about myself is my weight…the maximum I have been is 61 kgs (134 lbs) 4.5 years back…I constantly try to improve on that but never did …I also feel bad for not having developed reading habit…I seldom read books…

14) I didn’t talk to my brother for 4 years since he didn’t listen to my advice…I didn’t talk to my neighbors for 6 years since they scolded me for a mistake I didn’t do…I am serious about things like these

15) I have been myself irrespective of the place…everywhere I try to follow all the rituals and practices I do at home

16) I wanted to learn several things in my childhood which I am yet to learn (like Mridhangam, Sanskrit, etc)

17) I take bath everyday without fail ( yey! thats an achievement) and I always take bath only in hot water (even in extreme hot temperatures)

18) I get excited very easily and quickly recover from that…

19) I was short-tempered a while ago…now, I am more matured and better…once I beaten my brother with a club black and blue for cheating in a game…he didn’t go to school for a week after that…

20) I am a pure vegetarian except for chocolates (snickers to be specific)…I am somewhat addicted to it…

21) I don’t like people who don’t follow their rituals and become rebels…I never had a friendship with such a person…

22) I am an ardent fan of Ajith (Tamil actor)…if I am in India, I watch all his movies on the opening day…when I was not earning, I even stood in queues for 5-6 hours to watch his movies…(still don’t know why)…

23) I love cooking…thats one of my stress busters…another stress buster is shopping (only window shopping )

24) I was a good painter in my childhood…probably, the last painting I done was the day before we
bought a PC…

25) I think and write very fast (even if it doesn’t make any sense )…during my undergrad, for one of the exams I wrote 65 pages (ruled sheet) in 3 hours….you can see it here, I didn’t have any problems in thinking 25 random things about me…you will feel the difficulty when you start writing
