Tagged!

Got tagged by Wooster and after much procrastination, here I am, with my list of eight quirkies:

I have this peculiar habit of very imperceptibly nodding every now and then. When it started out about 15 years back, it was quite pronounced, but over the years, I've forced it to become almost unnoticeable and do not nod as often as earlier. Its not conscious and I've been in some strange situations while nodding at strangers in public:-D






I've never worn a pair of jeans that is not the 'standard' denim color. Somehow I end up buying the same color all the time (no, thats not me in the pic).







I see more through the lens of my camera than through my eye. I also wish I could photograph people whenever I wanted to, without feeling embarrassed.






In India where seat belts are viewed as a nuisance, I somehow feel obsessive about wearing one.






I hate shaving - especially on a daily basis.





I know it goes against the grain of diligence but I love the feeling of uselessness - I try to snatch a few minutes of total uselessness even on the busiest of days and nothing beats that.





My kind of music is the one that shuts me out from the rest of the world






I'd love to have 6-pack abs again (yeah this means I had them once-upon-a long-time back when prices were cheap, politicians were upright and people respected their elders {hat tip: Baz} And sigh, no, this pic isnt me either)



I was supposed to have tagged 8 more people, but figure its best to leave it open for anyone who cares to do it too. Some random rules:
  1. Write 8 random facts/habits about yourself.
  2. I didnt like the other rules so deleted them.

:) I too am obsessive about seat belts. Used to wear one long before they became compulsory - and still wear one even in the back seat. Seems like the most natural & sensible thing to do!

I am trying to recollect all the head nodding people I met and wondering if any could have been you!!

Your blog is nice. I think you should add your blog at www.blogadda.com and let more people discover your blog. It's a great place for Indian bloggers to be in and I am sure it would do wonders for your blog.
