Tag 1 - Eight Things about Myself

Axe tagged me onto this; quite a pain I must confess being tagged to writing something like this. And that too, only 8 things, when my list was beginning to seem endless:)
So here's my first 'tagged-to' post, especially since I see a reminder to do this, on my previous post.

Eight Things about Myself
1. I am a die-hard romantic to the core.
Surprises; diamond ring and down on one knee-kind of proposals; kisses; hugs; physical manifestations of love; love stories; romantic movies; love notes; sunsets; moonlit nights; walking in the sand, hand-in-hand, etc sort of tried-and-tested or unique romantic gestures are all huge turn-ons.

2. I realize today that I’ve made a lot of adult/ life- changing decisions as a child; most of which I still am or plan to conform to.
To never smoke; to have, what in India we refer to as a ‘love-marriage’; what I would like to name my son if and when I have one; add the letter ‘y’ to my first name etc:).

3. I consider myself blessed to have had a best-friend to grow up with, since we both were born, 27 years ago. It’s not an ordinary gift and if I could, I would want to pass that on, more than anything, to my children.

4. I love traveling, mostly to cities.
I traveled to my first city (for tourism), when I was 3 months old and I think that’s when the bug caught on. I’ve been to more than 50 so far, in India and abroad, and am still counting.

5. I am extremely gregarious and love being surrounded by people. I can also hold conversations with almost anyone, including a wall. Both qualities are an inheritance from my Mom, I think.

6. I am an only child and have always loved it that way.

7. I cannot study in any other way, but aloud; like ‘read-the-text-out-loud’ aloud. I think that may be the reason I have an incessant, untiring capacity to blabber.

8. I have always done things my way and plan to spend the rest of my life continuing to do so. Someday, at the fag end of it, I hope to hear Frank Sinatra’s ‘I did it my way’ in my tribute:)
