Randomly yours!

Arjun and Richa tagged me with this.

Rules: Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.

I have tried to do this tag as well as I can, although I wonder how much justice I have done to it.

1. I have had this habit since childhood. If A has met B, and B has met C, and if I have met A, means I have met C, indirectly. Talk about taking the theory of transitivity to greater heights!

2. It is my dream to make a Tanjore painting. I feel it tests the patience and talent of the artist, and the outcome is just wow!

3. Rarely will you find me cribbing, and I don't like people who crib non-stop.

4. I love great voices, it's such an integral part of one's personality. Om Puri, Kunal Kapoor, Siddharth Narayan (!), Mita Vasisht, Farhan Akhtar, Raghuvaran (the late Tamil actor) are some of the people who possess enviable voices.

5. I don't like the colour orange. As a child, I always thought that orange came between red and yellow and spoilt their wonderful friendship. I still don't like orange.

6. I love listening to shlokas and vedic chants. There's something about them that makes the air so beautiful, the heart so light, and the mind is at peace.

7. I really want Rahman sir and Kailash Kher sir to collaborate for a song. Yun hi chala and Arziyan were teasers, I want a solo song. What better than two of my favourites coming together!

8. The first thing in the morning, I thank my pillow, my bed, my quilt and the ground for having given me good sleep and taking care of me through the night. And even through the day, I thank everything. This is now a family joke!

9. I have always wanted to write Hindi poetry. I have tried a couple of times but nothing worth mentioning. Something philosophical ends up becoming comical! It's a beautiful language, and I wish I can string together something beautiful someday.

10. My desktop background is my own photo. In it, I am posing with Appa's classy sunglasses. Quite despo. When Appa saw me for the first time, me the new born, he was wearing those sunglasses. And since then, I believe in love at first sight! :D

11. If someone asks me my favourite colour combination, I'd say white and gold. One, calm and subtle, the other, flamboyant and exquisite, they make the perfect pair.

12. I have got a celebrity comment! Ram Kapoor, the famous TV actor (who hasn't updated his blog since ages) gave me a comment on one of my earliest articles! Needless to say, I was ecstatic!

13. I don't know how to make a French plait.

14. I love gazing at the stars and talking to them, often wondering if someone may be listening to me.

15. I can make excellent chai, although I am not too fond of the drink myself, unless it's winter. My periappa (uncle) comes all the way just for my tea! *self praise*

16. It is a dream to host my own travel show, a show that would explore all the undiscovered gems in India waiting to be explored, unravel the mysteries and compel the viewers to at least think of visiting the place.

17. There's just once that I have spoken to any 'celebrity' over the phone. Amma was speaking to him, and all of a sudden she passed on the phone to me and all I could say was "I love you. Keep going". And he changed his phone number. He being Karan Wahi, the TV actor (Ranveer Sisodia of the an old sitcom Remix).

18. I am quite superstitious. I usually use a certain brand of pen to write my exams, but that's about it.

19. I love playing pranks. My pranks are well planned and well executed, ones that can be still laughed at when reminisced about in the future.

20. I adapt myself according to the other person. For most of my friends, I am a patient listener, an agony aunt and an excellent secret keeper. My friend S, who is otherwise an introvert, is one blabbermouth with me. In college, I am the talkative girl. Ask J, she'd tell you she hasn't seen a more irritating person than me! Thanks J! : )

21. I want to make a photo autobiography, work in progress!

22. I want to have two dogs. I have decided their names too, Zeba and Cookie.

23. I want to resume French. After 10th grade, I lost touch and would have comfortably forgotten it too, had it not been for that one comment. Thank you Kartz for making me pick up that French dictionary again and bringing me back in touch with me. : )

24. What would you do if you got a dark surface and a correction pen? Well this is what I did.

Now you know why I love this template so much!

25. What is the best invention according to me? The smile. : )

Ah! Finally the tag's done and I have bored you enough. I must admit, that initially I was a little scared, 25 things about myself seemed like a lot, but now that it's done, it was a lot of fun! Thanks yaar! : )

Now I don't know whom to tag because most of the people I know have already done this tag or are doing it. I want to tag Kartz, Sakshi and Sashu. You can take it up if you wish to.
