Six things about me; habitual, common yet weird!

This seems to be a tough tag from sreejith ..I had to think a lot before writing this.. Weirdo 1: ) I hate jackfruit like anything.. I can't even stand its smell.. I've tried many times to tide over this.. This smell itself gives vomiting tendencies to me...I dont know why .. Weirdo 2: ) I can solve Rubik's cube in under 4 minutes consistently and, if luck favours it'll be done within 3 minutes..I dont think its a great feat..but then, solving it is thrilling Weirdo 3: ) I tend to make silly calculation mistakes very often..Though I'm reasonably good in maths, I've made blunders like 39 + 14 = 43 , 2+1 = 2 etc even recently.. Weirdo 4: ) I tend to realise some things in life a bit late.. Often, the learnings have made me to think like "If I knew this before, my life would have been different ".. Weirdo 5: ) I tend to win silver medal at almost all the times... Through out my school & plus two life, there was some girl/guy who use...

Interesting Signatures..

These are a few of mail / forum signatures that I've come across in the recent times.. Hope u find it interesting.. 1. Nobody can create or destroy a bug. A bug can only be transformed from one form to another 2. Hard work has never killed anybody..But why take a chance ? 3. There are only 2 kinds of ppl in the world: those who hv watched LOTR and those who haven't 4. 99% of the girls in this world are beautiful. The remaining one percent is in my college :) ( This is an old one ..was in some T-shirts during our final years.. ) And, the best one ........ I think am gay.. Wanna prove me wrong ??? Readers are welcome to contribute more to this list.. :) Thanks, Ajith

Books@mylife

The craziest Harry Potter fan has tagged me to write on books .. Now , literature is a field, where I'm very poor..My old quizzing partners know, I sulk at the mention of a literature round. I'd prefer magazines over books anyday.. Still, I'd give a try on this in a light way 1) One book that has changed my life Hmmm...I dont think till now any book that I've read has influenced me to this level..Maybe, 'Godfather' has influenced me a lot..But , no..no book has changed my life yet.. About 'Godfather', Mario Puzzo rocks..its really great..But I would recommend you to read it only after attaining a certain amount of maturity in your life..The values imbibed by a 15 year old boy by reading this book will be completely different from those imbibed by a 23- 27 year old guy. To me, the greatest learning from that ... "Its contacts and obligations towards you that'll help you in life the most and succeed in it " .. courtesy, Don Corleone...

Missing my third consecutive Onam..

"Is there any place here at Hyd where I can get a good OnaSadya on this tuesday ?? " .I've popped this question to many people, but still stuck up with a negative answer. Eitherway, the spirit of Onam survives..I'm far away from Kerala, but still I can feel the rhythms and celebrations there..Asianet relays some Onam special programs which gets me nostalgic. Those were the days when we roamed through our village seeing and participating in many programs like Pulikali , Vazhumarakayattam, thalapanthu.. etc.. Those were the days when we got to see most of our relatives spread far and wide across the nation .. Those were the days when we collected flowers and laid laid pookkalams in front of our ancestral home.. Those were the days of Ona Sadya with kaalan, aviyal , pappadam , pazham paalpayasam ..... Those were the nights when we sat...
