Tagged by Srividya.
A - Available?
Hardly on my gtalk.
B – Best Friend(s):
How do you define it? Depends on the gravity of a situation of whom I seek counsel. In increasing order of graveness: Rai, Saiki, Mom, myself. :D
C – Cake or Pie?
Warm apple pie with whipped cream and sliced strawberry on top.
D – Drink of Choice:
Water/ White Wine.
E – Essential thing used every day:
Can not be listed here.
F – Favorite Color:
Black & Royal Blue have a tie currently.
G – Gummi Bears or Worms:
Neither.
H – Hometown:
Agartala.
I – Indulgence:
A bubble bath at the end of a tiring day.
J – January or February:
Both. January for bringing a new beginning. February for announcing the advent of Spring and being the shortest, queerest month of the year.
K – Kids and Names.
What is in a name? That which we call a rose.. blah blah.
If I have a son, I might call him Ayush. If I have a daughter- it's for the father to decide. :D
L – Life:
What I am living right now. Everything else is a memory -long dead, or an uncertainty- yet unborn.
M – Marriage
War front? Kidding. Solemnizing a relation that means a lot to me.
N – Number of siblings:
One. Anirban Kar, whom I call "Dada". ( 'elder brother' in Bangla)
O – Oranges or Apples:
Should you ever compare them?
P – Phobia
Could be eremitophobia at times. Wouldn't call it a 'morbid fear' though. More of an intense dislike ( especially on Friday and Saturday evenings :D). However, at the end of the day, I still need my own space.
Q – Quote
Nothing else matters
R - Reason(s) to Smile:
Plenty.
S – Season
Winter.
T – Tag three people:
Any body who wants it can have it. (Yeah, the usual)
U – Unknown fact about me:
I am learning to be selfish.
V – Vegetable you do not like:
Eggplant- am allergic to it. But I do like "Baigan ka bharta " with plain roti.
W – Worst Habit
Clamming up totally when I am furious.
X-rays you have had:
Can't remember.
Y – Your favorite food:
Steamed dumplings maybe.
Z – Zodiac:
Virgo.
Bits and pieces is what I have. I have never tried to comprehend the whole of myself at once.I know it will take time. In my journey towards self realization- be a witness and share your thoughts.

You mean "like" as like Robert Pattinson? :P

Last night.. boo hoo.. even after I ate out 'cause I had a team meeting and had to rush to the univ after lunch. I love cooking but I hate doing the dishes!

Tagged- II (5 things about Aparna Kar)
It is an old post but since I'm evolving every moment, many of the things that held true before might have become obsolete now. Initially, a tag by Rohit, it is a good quiz on how much you actually know Aparna Kar or how you see her :)
1. Organizational Analysis and Skills (Mgt 650) is my favorite subject in school.
2. Ted umm.. embarrassing but true, I still sleep with my teddy bear
3. Jonathan Livingston Seagull and its theme of a newer, better plane of existence has changed my outlook towards life, second only to Karma Yoga by Swami Vivekananda. The third favorite on my book-list is of course, The Alchemist.
4. Maple leaves Love them. The colors, the contours. That's why you will see a little maple leaf at the beginning of the title of each post.
5. Cooking is my new found hobby.
Now tell me 5 things YOU know about her.

Reflections I snoitcelfeR
Got this tag from Pixie's blog. And I thought it was a good time to ask myself a few questions.
1. Pick out a scar you have, and explain how you got it?
Some scars can't be seen. And I'd rather not make them public.

3. What is on the walls of your bedroom?
Two mirrors. Yeah, I'm obsessed with myself :D
4. What is your current desktop picture?
The aerial view of a university I plan to join.
5. Do you believe in gay marriage?
Yes. If they are in love. Conversely, I don't believe in a marriage without love.
6. What do you want more than anything right now?
Wings to fly.
7. What time were you born?
A very blessed time ;)

15. Are you too shy to ask someone out?
Who? Me? And shy? Well he has to be good enough for me to ask him out...

Tagged-I
I have been tagged before by Shashi but never really got time to finish it.
This time around,Candid invented some real weird stuff and tagged me which I took up as a challenge.
Some of the content that follows is for 18+, parental guidance is strictly advised :P
If you were to adopt a pseodonym it would be:
Little Red Riding Hood (oh yeah..it's a jungle out there alright)
If Condi Rice/ Jim Carry proposes you:
To Rice: You know honey, I really get turned on by power, but you got the wrong gender.
To Kerry : I dig a good sense of humour...but you will probably bury me in yours.
What’s you solution for conflict between Israel and Lebanon:
ummmmmmmmm
ummmmmmmmmm
ummmmmmmmmm
still trying to think something which makes some sense.
Coz this whole affair doesn't
What would you do when you find there is no toilet paper/ water in a loo :
Use the neighbor's loo
What do you do when your partner weighs 300 lbs:
Sleep on the sofa
Your recipe for a weird food. Yuck!
No way man..no food can be that bad...except if some day I have to chew my bro's socks :p
What do you do with a schizophrenic cat?
Will never let my guy walk naked in front of her.
You never know what she might think of as a mouse..OOPS
How do you handle a wrong job?
I guess I'll simply throw it up..
Don't think I will be able to do something which I don't really enjoy
When did you have your last black out?
Yesterday
You catch Cupid admiring his work on you. What do you tell him?
So u finally managed to hit me with one of your arrows..eh?
If you were to choose between Viagra and an aged partner :
Well, an aged partner..coz I would make sure he wouldn't need it
Something that you would never tell your bf / gf?
It wasn't love
(I think the only reason I will ever be with a person is because of that four- lettered word.
No I didn't mean that three-lettered word)
What’s the secret of your health?
I smile a lot
One reason why a dog is better than a man:
I could give 101 reasons.
Still..some are:
1.It doesn't mind if you pig on chocolates and stand the mortal peril of gaining weight
1. It doesn't talk about its ex like she were some demi-goddess.
1.It always wags its tail when you come home, no matter how bad a day it had
1.It doesn't have a boss to spoil your plans by calling it up for work on weekends
1. It doesn't complain if you burn the dinner.
1.It lets you sleep.
(I think I will get a pet soon)
Your message to the blogger community:
It might appear weird prima facie..but it's fun..so tag on
