I would have never written any such thing if it wasn't for Miss Neha.
'25 facts about ones self' I wonder who thought of such thing...
Well here goes...
1) To start with, I wanna list the things that came to my mind.
- How can one write 25 things about himself?
- I will skip one or two numbers in between.
- It sounded more like an essay on Myself
2) I am scared of holding new borns, I find them extremely fragile. I usually end up thinking that they might get scratches over their body by my touch.
3) I have very poor handwriting. Should have written very very poor. I had a subject on handwriting in English & in Hindi as well. I never got more than 35, where the passing marks were 40. I asked my friends to write the 'to n from' section on the first greeting card I gave to a girl.
4) My first girl-friend was in third standard. That is what my friends, my cousins, n her brothers used to tell both of us. Her name was Sudha, and Gudia for me. She was my only female friend at that age. I used to blush whenever they called her my girlfriend.
5) Being a Jain, I was once asked to take some oaths(1st Jan 2003). There's an entire list
- No smoking, No drinking, No Tobacco (till death)
- I was also asked to take Celibacy (Brahmacharya) till marriage. I did not have the guts to accept this one. Because Celibacy is not only related to making love, its more than that, much more than that, including watching movies sharing NV jokes etc etc. So our guru accepted my request and offered me less stringent rules.
No Pre-marital, No Extra-marital. I had no issues accepting these.
6) Our old house was a 2 room flat, all the edibles were kept in my room & the cooking was done in my parents room. I used to get up at night, open the cupboard, take out the cookies n other snacks, sit on the ground then eat with a huge smile full of satisfaction. I managed to get my sister join the gang too. (In short we use to steal all possible things even Chawanprash, Horlicks from our own kitchen and eat all night :P)
7) Dancing, I never learned dancing from anyone, or anywhere. Its been my passion ever since I was a kid. In fact I was a die hard fan of Prabhu Deva at some age, after the song Muqabala. I dance whenever I am happy. Dancing for me was never a hobby or a skill to showoff. Its what I love to do, what I enjoy, what cheers me up.
8) This one is tricky one. I could have added this point to the previous one. But it deserves to be a separate one. Thou I mentioned that dancing is my passion. I was extremely shy to dance in front of anyone, even my mom. My first public performance was on a new year's eve. I won the passing the parcel game and was requested, by the only girl I had a crush on, to dance. Surprisingly, I agreed and Chaiya Chaiya was the song. The next morning my sis was pulling my leg for being popular amongst three girls.
9) The next attribute of mine is known to almost all my classmates. I never cheat in exams. Neither I ask for answers nor I share them. Neither I look in others' answers sheets or show mine to others. Data mining's first paper was my first experience with a score of zero. I may not be one of the toppers but I'm proud to say all my marks are truly earned.
10) I had a good academic record in maths, but I failed in 11th std first term paper. I practiced trigonometry for 5 consecutive days and still got a 27/100 in that.
11) Doing workout is another passion, inspired by my favorite HHH & 3:16. Always wanted to have a built like them. I used to fill two 2L bottles of coke n use them as dumbbells.
12) My father has always inspired me. But thats common for almost every other guy. So, apart from my dad Hrithik Roshan is a great source of inspiration for me. Not only for his dance or his physique. But for being a perfectionist & his affection for his parents, his wife, his kids & his loyalty towards his love.
13) My biggest fear has always been infidelity, this is the reason why Life in Metro disgusted me. I always wonder how anyone can trust his/her person to be loyal, I don't know if I will be able to build that trust. (This may sound sick, but you can surely blame it on the movies n TV serials)
14) Comedy shows & Dance Shows are my favorite. However I still spend most of my time watching cartoons, Tom n Jerry & Dragonball Z in particular.
15) I do not remember the count of girls who proposed me. However I personally have proposed a girl only once till date. I am not going to give my count of crushes cuz I don't remember. Even thou I have had serious relations with two individuals, both of them are past. SJ is single but not yet ready to mingle.
16) I have a lot of dreams, about my future, my career, my future family etc etc. And like many foolish people I try to plan my future, and get very upset when things do not go as per my plans.
17) GSD was the biggest project of my life. It made me realize my own potentials as a Team Player as well as a Team Leader. I know this for sure someone will definitely smile after reading this.
18) In school I was with Vivek n Paras, in graduation I was with Rajesh, in post graduation I was with Sanjeet. These people are the ones who took care of me as if I was their younger brother & listened to me as if I was their elder. (PS: I am elder to all three of them)
19) I have been teaching computers since 5th class. I used to teach my batch mates as well as my seniors. Infact I was a guest faculty at TataInfotech for a month. (It lasted only for a month cuz they never paid me)
20) I have lost my way thrice, once in a vegetable market, once during Durga Puja, and once on my first day to school. All three times the ones who brought me back to my home, knew me or my parents but I didn't know them.
21) Even thou I am a Post Graduate in computer science. I strongly believe in fate, stars, n all those spiritual talks. In fact I have read around four books on Vastu, one on palmistry which is still to be completed. And I don't know how many times I have studied my own Kundli.
22) My favorite status msg, "The glass is never half empty, Its always half full"
23) I get homesick every time I return from home. My dearest ones know this very well. I even spend day time at their place with their families for 2-3 days after returning.
24) Going through Sanmacs gave my confidence new heights. The MCA aspirants probably understand what Sanmacs is. I give special credit to Apoorvi (IITR-MCA) who made me jealous of her knowledge everyday and thus inspired me to push myself further.
25) I don't like eating alone, I 'need' atleast one person with me whenever I take lunch or dinner.
Phew... finally over with it...
Now one more task left... whom should I tag?? I don't know many people who blog... so I'll tag Vandita Kapila
