Dhiren tagged me. I have to tell 25 things about me. Here I go.

1. I drink lots and lots of water, maybe about 6 liters of water everyday. No...I don't run marathons or go to gym which necessitates this kind of behavior. I just drink water I don't find anything else to do.

2.I analyze things a lot and I think about a lot of things.

3.I am not a chatter-box. I speak only when I need to speak.

4.I will never have 32 teeth that a normal adult has coz 2 of my premolars have achieved martyrdom to plaque.

5.I absolutely love bhaigan ka bharta and biryani. Ek saath nahi...alag alag.

6.I like to keep my nails short all the time and I don't understand how some girls can keep their nails long just for decorating them with polish et al. I always fear what if the long nails poke somebody's eye out of the socket.

7.I never miss the Jug Suraiya article in TOI. I think the way he makes his point across to the readers with his humor and pun is phenomenal.

8.I can't sing or play any kind of instrument or can dance or give thought provoking public speeches or any kind of speeches or paint or sketch or write heart-wrenching poems or any kind of poems.

9.I hate crowds. They are a big-turn-off for me and I absolutely avoid crowded places.

10.I don't have specific loo-timings unlike other people who religiously go in the morning.

11.I am a sucker for women in short hairs of specific kind say Gina Gershan's cut in Bound or Juliette Lewis' in Natural born killers but definitely not the Gillian Anderson kind from The X-files.

Just clarifying things. The lady on left is Gina Gershon and one on the right is Juliette Lewis.

12. I have about 15000-20000 songs in my computer...a majority of them Hindi.

13. I have a very high metabolic rate that means however fatty food I take in I never gain weight.

14.I have a phobia of dogs.

15.I don't like the western kinda fast-foods like pizzas,burgers...etc. Give me pani-puri, chaat, bhel-puri anyday and I will devour them.

16.I don't like cold drinks at all.

17.I absolutely don't know any kind of kitchen job...cutting, cooking etc.

18.I am a weekend drinker. I prefer Beer, Vodka or White Rum.

19.There was a time when I used to be sincere in studies.

20.I love cinema though my movie-god is my good friend Utkarsh who has watched more than 2000 movies now(this guy is insane)

21.I am Bengali by birth since both my parents happen to be Bengali but culturally I am more of Bihari/Chattisgarhi and people have a hard time believing Bengali really is my mother-tongue.

22.Bihari guys have always been my best friends.

23.I have actually a talent. With a bit of effort I can reasonably copy anybody's writing and I have put this talent to use at various instances in my life.

24.We are a group of friends who believe that there are two kinds of people in this world. One who believe in Ataraxia and the other who don't. We the the former kind.

25.I lie very often. In fact I lie at the drop of a hat. It is possible that some or all the things said above may be lies out of my twisted convoluted mind or I may be lying right now. You decide. :P
