The BIG quirky me!!

While it's easy to write about things happening in one's own life, it's actually a bit difficult, no.... a mammoth task to write about self. (Wonder how people come up with Autobiographies????). Now, I have been "tagged" to write down a few quirks about myself. I tried thinking about it.......... Didn't work out. Tried jotting them down, in an effort what if sub consciously something gets penned......... All that happened was Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz............................ hehe........... honestly!!
So I decided to get a bit serious and do a lil bit of introspection............... And guess what? I came to a conclusion!!I am too quirky!! yeah.............. i am a full of eccentricities, contradictions. So much so that penning down a few is way too much of a task. But, I'll try............. (Mann, I hate you for this.... and whoever started this chain!! :)

So, here goes:

  1. I am very LAZY........... I would prefer shouting at the top of my voice to get things done, but rather not move an inch.
  2. An extreme hogger, ironically I'm quite picky about it too. So, I won't hog on just about anything. It has to be of my taste too. (I luv puri and aloo ki sabzi)
  3. I can survive an an entire day on just a burger, a few bottles of thums up and a couple of Lays (I'm crazy about it, the blue and green one!!)
  4. I'm simply head over heels with chocolate mousse. I end up pronouncing a restaurant as good or bad based on their chocolate mousse.
  5. While I can have a lot of hard drinks (some call me a bottomless barrel!!), I personally prefer a glass of good red wine to while the evening away.
  6. Totally fida over mountains, I dream of a home there, with sprawling meadows in front of my home. (Just a dream, ok!!)
  7. My ideal relaxing scenario has me sitting in a dark room, with some soft instrumental stuff in the background, a glass of the red wine, huge glass windows which open out to a nice wooden balcony, the steps from the balcony take you to a garden, cross the lawn and you have date/palm/coconut tress swaying in the breeze, the sea in a playful mood, and the moon casting its soft light on everything that rests in this picture. Are you with me???
  8. I have a huge fetish for wrist watches.
  9. I loooooooove coffee mugs.
  10. My favourite fruit juice is Mango, though I don't eat mango!!
  11. I always dream of being a great writer or sportsman. And neither I guess is possible................ :(
  12. For my my friends are of supreme importance.
  13. Despite the jovial outlook I'm essentially a very serious person.
  14. Although I'm quite flirtatious (ppl say so!!), I actually believe in commitment.... and I guess a romantic too.
  15. A born day-dreamer. i can dream hours away just like that.
  16. Although a right handed batsman in cricket, am more destructive as a leftie :P
  17. There was a time I believed Madonna was a football player, and Maradona a singer!! (Now, don't throw that stuff at me.......... i was just a kid!!)
  18. "Aa chalke tujhe main leke chalu " remains one of my favs....... and was the first song that i cud sing (again was a kid!!)
  19. Although a "rocker", i personally love to listen to soft music most of the time.
  20. I dunno why, but i always get this comment that my english is accented.
  21. People (especially girls) find my voice to be very good (am sorry won't write the rest of the adjectives here ;)), and I always feel extremely uneasy when told the same. And they then repeat the comment on purpose n number of times when i least expect it.
  22. I'm a fulltime chatterbox though not form the word go.
  23. Am a thorough introvert can't talk to strangers at all!!
  24. Did I tell you, that my first step while climbing is always the right one??
  25. Alrite, this to everyone knows................ I freak out on music!! I mean, like I'm totally into it.
  26. My dream was to be the lead singer of a damn good band! Yet to realise that one......
  27. I love to fiddle with my guitar, whom I've often introduced as My girl friend to the least suspecting people.
  28. I get bugged very easily.
  29. I am very short tempered, and tend to punch the wall when angry!!
  30. Strangely enough people consider me to be an iceberg.
  31. Very few know how to get me angry and then cool me down in a matter of seconds!!
  32. Despite being a bong, I don't like fish and rice.
  33. Simply dislike coconut in main meals like dal or fish or whatsoever (Had a tough time at Goa!! :()
  34. Now am getting bugged writing this down................ So cut it short................ get to know me and u'll know my "quirks".

Now this is very jumbled up, so do try and make sense of it. And no, I am not going to set it in order of any kind............. Likh diya yahi bohot hai!!Btw, if my friends wanna add something they can put it down in the comments section!!

Now, dat you are reading this line, you probably have an idea about what I am.
Cheerio.

Cuckoo said...

Hmmm Why I always thought that you are a bong ??

Good to see your inner self. Again I am comparing myself with you here.

First special mention. I loved no. 7. Every bit of it is my choice too. Oh yes I am with you ;) Ha Ha..

No. 13, 15, 17, 19, 23, 24 are exactly me. Oh many more similarities. Not gonna write now.

Good post!

Pijush said...

Nice post. It’s good to know about you.
Who told you can’t be a good writer (referring 11)
Well you disappointed me by 32 (as I am typical bong, taught in Bengali also)
Point 1,2,6,13,15,23,24,28,29 match with me, so not totally different.

Anonymous said...

@cuckoo: thnx, now i knw shud the lady not join whom to ask!! ;)

@pijush: thnx a lot (for teh writing part!!) and am sorry, but may be coz i've spent my life hopping across the country, so my food habits are a bit weird!! (as my mom says, more like a punju... dunno why!! :()
