The Tag.....

Anju had tagged me a long time back and I had forgotten about it until she tagged a few other people for the same thing recently(and I will never forgive her for tagging sajeeve! My poor mind was tortured reading his list regarding the amount of time pigs and lions take, being entangled in the throes of passion...)

Anyway, getting back to my list...

*If I walk into any room and I find the bed messy, my mind stops functioning. I just HAVE to clear the bed, make it neat and then get on with whatever I am supposed to be doing.

*Weird colour combinations make me so mad... if peope wear clothes that do not match or if the church altar is decorated in vividly loud colours that do not match... it again stops my mind from functioning. I cannot focus.... unless I will my mind to tune out and go to another place where everything is in harmony.

*I actually rock myself slowly to sleep.

*If you have seen curly haired babies/kids, you will know that they look amazingly beautiful (just like in the picture above)... always wanted a kid like that, seeing that nobody in this family has curly hair, I guess I'll just have to follow the stars and adopt one.

*I HATED the Godfather book and the Pretty Woman movie.

*People are almost always surprised seeing my palms.... cause I have got more palmar creases than the normal human.

*I like the dance of the dust particles in angel rays... It's the only dust that doesn't get to me.

*I do not like the way technology has messed up the english language with its infuriating short forms.... (I wanted to give a few examples, but I can't do it.... I can't write like that and not feel anything)

*Very rarely will you see me using a blue pen, I somehow don't like them. I carry a black pen with me.

*I was in love with Prince Eric for a very long time, until Prince Arutha of Crydee (from the Riftwar saga by Raymond E.Feist) came along, now I have this kind of deep reverential wonderful feeling for Sherlock Holmes... he's beyond comparison.

Let me give a example here kavitha,
(theme_4a_dream@yahoo.com)

4 - what does it mean, Hope that is nothing but the word FOR.

Some messed language is there in your personal ID. Please correct the short form.

Tonio, well noted. Well, in this case, it is perfectly acceptable, since its an e-mail id and email ids should actually be short... the same goes for SMS's, there its okay to use short forms, it is tiring to type out whole sentences using your thumbs. But while chatting and mailing and blogging and anywhere else, these short forms are infuriating...

saj, nobody goes around curling baby's hair...
Karen Xavier said…
Gitu, ask them if I can adopt one...
Appletini said…
That is so funny... you can't satnd a messy bed?
wildeyes said…

tonio, i like the way your mind functions :D
Karen Xavier said…
Appletini, I can't stand mess, dirt, untidiness... it gets to me.

Megh's, you have to write ten random things about yourself.

Messy beds make you mad eh? You probably souldn't be visiting our place then :) The bed is ALWAYS messy. Both kid's and ours.

Well, in fact, you shouldn't be meeting me even. Because when I get dressed every morning, I pick a random pants and a random shirt. So the chance of color combinations matching is pretty much non-existent.

Nice to see you post. It's been a while since I heard from you.

Throes of passion and messy beds usually go together...
Zak said…
messy beds are due to throes of passion
Karen Xavier said…
Jude and Saj, how profound...

Rocking yourself slowly to sleep? Tat's sweet !!
That Squirrel said…
well, it's about time.
* seems like your brain could stop functioning at the smallest things. You'd die in my room because I won't let you straighten the bed.
* I hated the pretty woman movie too
* Although I hate shorthand with a passion, I liked Antonio's point. He's right.

I hate messy beds too .. & I also love curly hair :)

TDNA, its okay, I grew up with two boys, my tolerance levels are pretty high.

Sandhya, that's why I like travelling by trains, they lull you to sleep.

Anju, its a good thing you did not read the godfather book.

Scribbler, yeah they have a charm of their own, though they are difficult to manage.

Nice Ad....

Wouldn't you say so... Nam and me were in this huge clothing store and we were making fun of all the models on display (there was one of hrithik in which he looked kinda gayish) when we came across this one. Seriously, dark people are more better looking....

I hope the world doesn't end in 2012, I have a whole lot of books to read...

I heard bout Flipkart.com from Anju and that site has changed my life. All the books that I have been searching for since centuries, are now sitting prettily on my book shelf. Landmark is a thing of the past now... in fact Landmark is not what it used to be anymore, they do not seem to have stock on most of the good books. So I am deliriously thankful to the creators of flipkart, I seriously love you guys... continue with your fabulous work. Talking of books, here are a few people who have enriched my life with their recommendations of the written word... My brother Manoj for buying the ' The Partner ' by John Grisham . Now I hadn't heard of Grisham before so the book was just lying there at home. One day I got bored and picked it up, that was the start of my love affair with Grisham and legal thrillers in general. This was the first John Grisham book I read and it was in a word mindblowing. I couldn't set the book down, my heart was racing away with Patrick Laniga...

Interesting churches from around the world...

Came across these spectacular churches while trying to search for simple and rustic ideas for my (very soon to be constructed) church back home. Thorn Crown Chapel This is the Thorn Crown Chapel located in Eureka Springs, Arkansas... looks pretty neat huh. Church of Hallgrímur The Hallgrímskirkja (a Lutheran church) is located in Iceland, and it is designed to resemble basalt lava flows that are characteristic of Iceland. The church is also used as an observation tower. Chapelle of Saint Michel The Chapelle of Saint Michel perched atop a needle of a rock is located in Auvergne, France. 268 stone steps wind their way up to this quaint little ancient church. Doesn't it look absolutely dreamy... Borgund Stave Church This is the Borgund Stave Church located in Lærdal, Norway... t'was built somewhere in the late 12th century, definitely awesome. Las Lajas Cathedral The Las Lajas Cathedral (Sanctuary of our Lady) located in Columbia, South America is certainly awe inspiri...
