Tagged once more. By Miss Indyeah , first name Awesome . :) My apologies Madam , for I haven’t used a lot of personal pictures . So without much more ado , I hereby end my blogging moratorium .
1.The age I will be on my next birthday
Why oh Why ? Why ! Why the Hell ! Why am I not Benjamin Button . While most people celebrate their birthdays , for me it is a sad reminder of the fact that I am getting older . If only I could be 22 for the rest of my life . *SIGH* And the fateful day is March 22nd .
2.A place you would like to travel
That’s a tough one. I would like to travel the Entire world, and go on a space tour as well. To name one, I would like to see the Himalayas. The place doesn’t matter.
3.My favourite food and drink
Hmmm. I am a foodie. I like all kinds of food. I am always ready to take my taste buds on an adventurous trip. But to name one, off the top of my head, Rice and chicken curry . Favourite drink, for now , would a beer called Guinness . It is Irish . And I am sorry if it is against Indian culture, and the moral police de damned, but I like to down one , every now and then . As Harivansh Rai Bachchan jee said , “Hindu aur musalman do , ek magar unka pyaala, bair karati mandir masjid, mel karati madhushala” . Cheers . :)
4.Favourite pet
Dogs . Any given day. Anytime . Loyal, faithful, playful . What else do you need ? And horses would be a second .
And that is Kaara . She is with my family back home . And I miss her . :(
5.Favourite place
Manipal. For ever. I wish I could get that tattooed on my body . I studied there and it was the best time of my life. And I shall love it till the day I die .
That is End point . It was one of my favourite places .
6.Favourite color combination
7.Favourite piece of clothing
Birthday suit. I wish I could wear that every day , every time . Preferably with a leaf or two covering you-know-what . ;) And no picture for this one . But when I am my normal self, trying not to be a misfit of an outcast , I prefer a t-shirt and shorts . And barefoot .
8. Favourite songs .
It is this one .
Click Madi
:D And please do tell me what your reaction was .
Jokes apart , I don’t have on absolute all time favourite . So pardon me for the excesses , I will name a few .
Mad World – Gary Jules
Stairway to Heaven – Led Zeppelin
Behind Blue Eyes – The Who
The Unforgiven – Metallica
Coming back to life – Pink Floyd
Dance of Death – Iron Maiden
Braveheart Theme Song – Enya
Play with fire – The Rolling Stones
Riders on the Storm – The Doors
Maa Tujhe Salaam - A R Rehman
I have named quite a few, so I will stop now .
9. Favourite TV Show(s)
10. Full Name of my significant other .
Hmmm . Her first name would be - Crazy-enough-to-fall-for-me . Her middle name would be - Patient-enough-to-bear-me And the last name - Brave-enough-to-take-the-plunge . Time alone shall tell who turns out to be my better half . I hope she turns out to be better , and not bitter .
11. City I live in - Bengaluru/Bangalore . Garden city . IT . Pubs ( :P to the Moral Police ) .
12. Screen name / nick name - Kislay . Always been Kislay . Except while playing Counter Strike , I am always me .
13. First job - Software Engineer . Always wanted to code since I was a kid .
14 . Dream Job - President of the Indian Moral Police Force . :D I shall ban everything directly or indirectly related to the WEST . There shall no more be a direction called West . Manage with three for the love of our Indian culture . The westerlies shall not blow as well . They hamper the digestion of Indian food , lead to constipation, and there fore are detrimental to our bhartiya sanskriti . I would even ban the letters W-E-S-T . Take that !
"Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life " . That would be my dream job .
15. Bad habits I have .
Day-dreaming . Sleeping . Lazing around . To name a few . I have many . :) I am a bad boy .
16. My Worst fear
I fear that I will turn against my own principles some day .
17. The one thing I would like to do before I die .
A re-union road-trip to Om beach , Gokarna with my close friends .
18. The first thing I would buy with $ 1 Million
My freedom . From the vicious cycle of materialistic pursuits . I will ensure that I never have to worry about food,clothing or shelter ever again . So that I will be free to pursue any interest of mine .
19. My Favorite credo(s)
Sab moh-maya hai . :)
Eat , drink and be merry . :D
Live and LET live . :-|
20. Time to be creative . I will add one of my own . If you were to get a tattoo , what would it be , and where would it be ?
I would get 4 . A barcode on the back of my neck , for fun . An Om on right arm . A Pi on my left . The symbol of my faith on my left arm , and the symbol of my Science on my right . And one swastika , NOT the Nazi one , on my chest . Smeared in saffron,white and green . Yes Mesdames and Messiurs, I shall wear my love on my chest .
Time to pass the baton . I don't think someone ever took it from me , except once . So , instead of naming people , I will just tag my entire blogroll . If your name is on it , you are tagged . If you are game enough , do the work . :)
