Hello All..I am logging into my blog after 2 weeks. Not only does it seem like an infinite time but also like the whole world has gone 10 steps and I am left behind. Had many comments to moderate and favorite blogs to catch up on. The blame on my absence goes to my personal project 'M' that I took up recently. No no...'M' doesn't stand for marriage and its not in my dictionary for as far as I can see. So its nothing interesting to write about 'M' here, so let me skip the details. I am giving up on Blogging time to concentrate on 'M'. So my brain apologises to my 'blogger -me' for not giving it the attention it wants...
And now its homework time folks!! In the blogosphere ,its synonymous for 'TAGS'. This week is going to be a sneak peak into who I am through the tags that I received from , Blue diamond (I am proud to share my name with her), Rakesh(he writes one of the most addictive blog) and RS (a sweet person i met here)

I am normal
The next assignment is from Rakesh , a fun blog which humbles my writing skills..
The requirement is for me to write 6 eccentric characters of mine. I really am a very normal person and took me a while to think up of anything different about me, so here goes my normal abnormal self
1. Personal Picassa
I love looking at photos. I can browse through thousands of snaps shot of my friends and family and of course myself for hours together. I treasure the memories that sweep me when I see them. So I make it a point to collect every photo possible and store it up in my hard disk for referring every now and then. So all my friends on Orkut and Facebook, beware I am 'looking' at your pics periodically whether you update them or not.
2. Sleep only when sleepy
I cant hit the bed just because it is 12 in the night or 2 in the morning. I only go to bed when I cant help myself to do anything else. I think sleeping is a waste of time when I can concentrate on blogging, working, You tubing, movies,mags etc etc. Once my eyes start closing involuntarily , then its my cue to prepare to sleep. So if they close at 7 pm, then its my bed time.
3. Accident freak
I also worry that the people who matter to me or I will have a accident while travelling. So when my parents or friends tell me that they are going from A to B..(could even be to the nearest grocery store from home) I secretly pray for their safety , that no accident happens.
4. Hot Food and Clean Hands
I only eat food that is hot. If it isn't, then I will eat as little as possible. Of course I can't avoid eating altogether. And yeah I need to wash my hand every now and then. Water is its elixir and my hands needs to constantly be in contact with water, else it will wilt. Or so it thinks.
5. Life without YouTube
I would be desperate, helpless and hopeless without YOU TUBE. Its the place I live in. I watch all possible shows, music videos, news , celebrity gossips, sitcoms, comedy tracks, talk shows on it. But if You tube dies, I think I may actually have more time on hand
6. Eye make up
Wearing Eye make up is my favourite part of getting dressed up. Not that I have breathtaking eyes, but wearing a base cream, followed by kajal, liquid eyeliner, eye shadow, mascara and final swoosh with eyelash curler is my makeup antic. I mentioned I like this routine, but did i say i wear it ?? I have the equipment and the riff raffs to do it but No time and patience to apply it. Any models willing to take the risk with me??
So I completed it, now the victims of this tag are :
RS
Blue Diamond
Amazwi

Past,Present and Future
This is Blue Diamond's tag. I would have loved to write on these topics as a blog post, but considering the tempo of my blog, I had decided to keep it out. But now with the excuse of doing it for the sake of a Tag, here goes:
The tag rules:Two questions in each category answer them and then tag your friends from the blog-o-sphere. (Simple enough right?)Leave a comment on their blog letting them know they have been tagged and you are all set.
Yesterday :
Your oldest memories :
Running to my friend's house next street
Thinking my brother's feet were the cutest thing in the whole world when he was born.( Now its a size 10 feet and nowhere even near to the word decent, let alone cute)
Buying matching hairband, shoes, earring and everything to go with my dress for every diwali till I was 13.
Practising for dance to be performed on cultural day and always ending up as the 'boy' (thanks to my height or rather to the short girls in my school)
After school volleyball, march past practise and every other game when there was not a care about complexion..
Buying 'Goli-soda' and 50 paise butter biscuits from the shops opposite school
Planning with my best friend Shruthi on how to ask permission at home to watch a movie at a movie hall
My Hand full of Friendship bands on friendship day
When I was promoted from riding a BSA champ to a Lady bird to a Sunny then on to a Scooty and finally car...
Long conversations after school ends in the Cycle stand
Trying to play the ooja board and getting caught..(damn shit!!)
Fighting for the Television remote with my brother (not quiet old, as it will happen sometime now also, when I go back home)
My trip to Dubai and the life shaking experience I had in Gorfakhan trying to climb up a cliff.
Learning Bharathanatyam and then leaving class...(which i should never have)
Running from Physics and Chemistry tuition to Math tuition..
Sighting and teasing boys while at school(no more details here ...hehe)
Prank Calls to strangers and friends
when my best friend left to Australia to study and our tear filled goodbyes..
library trips
Farewell day at school which was the saddest day of my life...I left behind 14 years of my life and moved on to face a different world..
What were you doing ten years ago?
Ten years ago at this time I was having this silly fight with a friend called Neha. I don't even remember now why we had fought. She was an extremely sweet girl and I wish I could get back in touch with her.
And I was also wondering when the chicken pox marks on my face would go away and wondering if I would look good again..
On the other hand, I had this crazy boy cut and looking totally cool(at least I though so)
Devising on how to convince my parents to send me to a boarding school for doing my 11th and 12th , so that i could live the Malory towers life...BTW it didn't happen.
Today:
Your first thought in the morning
It is a Sunday and the thoughts that came in my mind when my eyes opened were as follows , in no particular order :
'SHIT !! ITS 9 30'. Shall i call Thamizh or Shruthi once my coffee is ready. Crap i didnt prepare filter coffee overnight. shall i have oats?? but oats is so boring to eat on weekend. or maybe hot chocolate. But its not so healthy.
so i ended up drinking tea and called thamizh . She didn't pick up and i called Shruthi. It was 1.30 by the time i dropped the phone..Phew..Half a day over..DAMMIT
If you build a time capsule what would it contain?
It would have my hard drive which has photos of everything and everybody and also all my photo albums from childhood, trip photos and school and college. Gifts and cards from family and friends. Slam books...
Tomorrow:
This year…
I would have woken up to yet another monday and thinking on reasons why i choose the software industry and what I can do to get out of it.
Probably the next year also I would think the same
What do you see yourself doing 14 years from now?
Nothing has gone as per plan.
10 years back I thought I would be a brilliant business entrepreneur , flight hopping, coming on business magazine covers and making life changing decisions. Look at me now, writing meaningless crap on blogs. The most tough decision I made yesterday was to whether buy a black scarf or with patterns or without. So I don't even what to think 2 years from now, let alone 14 years!
I saw that most of the bloggers had completed this tag topic. So i tag my friends who I guess will enjoy writing on this topic:
Sanjana...
Chriz (This is a busy busy blogger,lets see if he responds)

On the quest to find my alter ego
This RS' Tag. She wants me to find my Disney incarnation by taking the quiz at http://quizfarm.com/quizzes/new/TheMilkMan007/which-disney-character-is-your-alter-ego/
So I came up as the Beast!! Of the famed 'Beauty and the Beast' . And to think that I would have preferred to be Beauty in the fairy tale....Considering that it is a character and not a appearence quiz, I accept the results as fair based on my answers to it..
I think the following people need to get in touch with their alter ego and their silly side and they must do this exercise...So I tag
Rekha
Priti
But to all, do let me know through a comment on who did you turn out to be. Its a small 2 minute quiz, try it out.
