Or maybe the fifth time’s the charm?

I don’t read. I don’t know why but I don’t.

And I don’t mind accepting this at all. Although some people find it surprising which again, I have no clue why.

I have read four novels in my life.

  1. The First was Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë. It was part of my class 12th curriculum. So I was kind of forced to read it. But it is a great book. I can very well read it again.
  2. The second was Great Expectations by Charles Dickens. It was also a part of my class 12th curriculum. I found it to be pretty great. More so because I could relate with the hero, Pip. I also saw a god-awful movie based on the book after I read the book. They butchered the book completely.
  3. The third was The Old Man and The Sea by Ernest Hemingway. It was part of my B.Tech. Second semester curriculum and it was so boring that I never read the whole thing. I left it midway and just read the synopsis.
  4. The fourth was The Bachelor Of Arts by R K Narayan. This was the first book I read by choice. I saw it with one of my friends one day and just thought I might like it. The name really appealed to me. She also had The God Of Small Things with her and I almost thought of reading that instead (Thank god, I didn’t) but since this book was thinner and Arundhati Roy is a big jerky, the choice was easy.

Now, after years of not having read any other book other than those related to my field, I bought this book last Sunday.

The Da Vinci Code

It’s The Da Vinci Code. Yes, people, I finally succumbed to all the hoopla surrounding this book. I have managed to read only 4 chapters till now and I don’t know how long it will take me to complete all the 67 chapters. It’s just okay till now. It better be good and worth all the trouble.

Wish me luck!!

Know More Vol. 2

It’s been a while since I last told you some unknown facts about me, so here are a couple of more things about me.

  • I am a left-hander. I write, eat, hold the phone and basically do everything with my left hand.
  • I do not dance. People often ask me to dance and I say no. I don’t like passing off moving my hands and legs at irregular intervals as dancing. I don’t mind dancing if it’s choreographed but otherwise, it’s a no. I have danced in front of a large audience on few occasions but most of the times it was choreographed and when I danced during my ragging session in my office, I had already prepared a choreographed piece and the result, people actually thought I was a good dancer. I always think about joining a dance class but since never do it bcos of lack of company.
  • I’ve never seen real snow or snowfall in my life. Even though I used to live close to hilly areas, I never went there. I hope I get a chance to see snowfall soon.
  • I‘ve never been to a beach or seashore either. Guess I’m not much of a traveler. But Chennai is only six hours away, so who knows, I might just go there sometime.

Know More

I realized that my blog was getting a little impersonal therefore I decided to give all the readers some personal information about me so they can know me a little better. Alright, so here are two little weird facts about me that are not known to too many people, not even the ones who are very close to me:

  • I feel a little dizzy when both people and mannequins surround me. I mean, it’s not just the presence of mannequins that makes me dizzy but when life-size mannequins are placed all around the shops and people are also strolling though that area then I get very dizzy. I feel like the mannequins are walking around and the people are standing still. Its crazy and I don’t know if other people get disarrayed around mannequins too. But it happens to me and I don’t know why.
  • I cant bring myself to ask for a ride (lift) even when I absolutely need it. I consider it a kind of weakness but it hasn’t hurt me too much as yet. I just can’t do it. I guess its cos I fear being turned down by strangers. I have a huge ego, you see. In fact, twice I was offered a ride without asking for it out of which once I rejected (cos I was waiting for my college bus and didn’t need the ride) and the other time, when I was standing outside my college and did need a ride, I couldn’t make up my mind as to why the driver stopped and in the mean time, other guys who wanted a ride too got in the car. So till date I have neither asked for nor accepted any rides.
