Mashed Musings

I am yet another mortal soul dropped by the “out of control” stork army of God on Earth on 1 May, 19XX. Since each mortal acquires some properties during his/her lifetime, I am no different and hence have acquired the following properties :

• I am a complete movie buff. I think I need some psychiatric help. The way I collect movies is insane. Although the frequency of watching movies is less as compared to collecting them, so I guess that I would be asking my son/grandson to burn them and my laptop with me when I die, so that I can watch them in heaven.
• I firmly believe in procrastination. The latest sample of this habit of mine was when wifi stopped working in my laptop when I reinstalled windows and it took me two months to get up from the bed and drag myself to the service center and that too when it was free of cost and took only 10 minutes to repair.
• I am always reading a book. You would never find me sitting idle and staring at a wall. No matter where-ever I go, there will be a book in my bag. My friends and family find it really irritating specially when I go out on trips with them but I can’t help it. I somehow feel incomplete if I don’t carry a book with me.
• I am quite into blogging nowadays. Although I don’t write many posts as my office takes up most of my day but its a whole new fascinating world and I feel like Alice in wonderland. Earlier I used to think that Bloggers are insane, lunatic people who have nothing better to do in life. But now I am one of them. And no, I don’t have such derogatory thoughts about bloggers anymore.
• I have never followed a fixed path in my life, never planned anything. Everything just kept on tumbling in front of me and I picked up whatever best I could. I never focused on being a doctor or an Engineer, but eventually ended up being the latter. I am working in XXX(don’t take the name literally. ) right now.
• I get the best in my life but it always comes late. I have to be really patient and see the world move ahead and wait for my turn. But, I do get everything eventually. I have lead a charmed life so far….or maybe I am too optimistic.
• I love my laptop. I don’t know what would I have done without it, specially when I am staying so far away from home and all my friends (well…most of them) have left for USA. Its my girlfriend right now. Well almost….except that it doesn’t kiss me back with that much passion.
• Travelling is yet another passion for me. Visiting new places gives me a real big high. If I want to be rich, then its only for the reason that it will give me the freedom to visit numerous places.
• Being a complete spendthrift comes easily to me. This is something which makes everyone in my family very tense. Give me 20,000 Rs and I can spend them in an hour.
• My friends think that I am too western. I usually get comments like - “You are born in the wrong country.” I am not sure what that means but I am constantly told that my thoughts and even my eating habits don’t have an “Indian-ness” to it. Whatever that means. I try to take it as a compliment but somehow just can’t do it.
• I am mad about computer games and can spend hours playing them. Days actually. Although I haven’t played much lately. I am plotting and planning to get a PS2 on my birthday. Hope I get it. Amen!!!
• I have always believed that when I will witness my first snowfall, I will cry.

Well, that’s all about me. Just another earthling enjoying his stay on Mother Earth. If you still want to know some more disgusting/Horrible/Funny/Weird/Normal/Abnormal facts about me, then you can read this.
