51 Facts that Reveal Real Me
Hmm.. Blogging after so long gap, i decided to post something unusual. Well, in this blog post I'm going to explore myself as i write and let you know somethings about me more in depth and detail. This is going out to beat out all the longest posts of my blog! And for all those who love my blog and my life and the way see it and present it, this is going to be a full meal as a compensation of not blogging a good post in the past few weeks.
1. I have Tractor phobia. It all happened when i was in my 2nd standard. I took a bicycle for rent on a Sunday and was roaming my entire village. I used to ride that very short bicycle at great speeds and at one point, i overtook a heavy sugarcane loaded tractor in a narrow turn. A person aged above 60 yelled at me.. "Orey.. tractor kinda padi potav royyeee.." (You gonna fall under a tractor and die!) From then, if i need to overtake a tractor even on a bike, i get nervous and accelerates higher to pass that tractor at blazing speeds.
2. I get some really weird dreams like riding a car at tremendous speeds, falling from heights, buildings, sky, plane, and sometimes drowning deep down in an ocean. In most of such dreams i get up all of a sudden. btw, we do not possess a car.
3. I started watching movies in theaters all alone from the age of 7. Right from then i used my dad's name and profession to get tickets directly. He works in a public service department.
4. I'm an internet addict and a PC enthusiast. I spend about 100hours a week online.
5. I prefer watching movies all alone in theaters and not in a group.
6. In the past one year i have never changed my PC wallpaper or mobile wallpaper. Both are custom made by me in photoshop :D "I love myself" is the quote on my mobile screen and that reflects me.
7. I have my parents passport pics in my wallet.
8. Tough I do not care a damn of what people think about me, I always like to know what they think about me.
9. It is very difficult for me to remember names of people and even friends whom i know well. So friends, this time if i ask you what your name is.. you know what to do. Reply your name :P I might have just forgot. And my efforts to overcome this for the past 2years are showing signs of improvement.
10. I love smilies or emoticons a lot and use them regularly over internet chat and text :P
11. I can use keyboard shorts than you can think of and can survive with a dead mouse :D
12. The movie for which tears rolled out of me for the first time was Rajanikanth's Muttu. As usual i was watching it all alone in theater at the age of 8-9 i think. The incident was when Rajani got pushed out of his own palace and that backdrop music. Got it?
13. My childhood friend during 1-4standards was Joshuva. Later my dad got transferred and we moved to the current place. I could never meet him later. Would love hear that he's all good. I still remember him. The same with our Princi Sr.Janitya. She loved me lot and said that she would write a letter giving reference to me to get a seat during mid academic year in SFS school. But my dad had plans for other school then. I remember her tears when i was leaving the school. Which princi would love to lose such brilliant and smart kid? ;) - I plan to go to this school someday and inquire about these both people.
14. I danced for the first and last time on stage in a group at the age of 8 for my school annual day celebrations. I headed the group. Guess i was in 3rd class then.
15. I can walk for 5-6Kms at a stretch on the road looking at the shops, names, wall posters, ad banners, road bumps, people, bikes, cars and still enjoy every foot of my walk even if it walking for the 1000th time on the same road.
16. There's always a good and bad in me and the same me and 'inner me' who always conflicts with my own decisions. I'm complex, amazing and amusing to understand :D
17. I write really long. I believe i can write damn good and pen down my feelings. Not sure how that gets conveyed to the other.
18. I rarely get bored sitting in home. I enjoy loneliness too. I dream and listen music during those times.
19. I still wave my hand a bye for my mom when i leave home. In my entire years of education there was never a day i came off home without waving a bye to her. (few exception wen i was angry)
20. I have had hit my sister innumerable times and ran off. Notorious me :D
21. My friends burst into laughter whenever i say that I'm sensitive :P But fact remains same.
22. The best of my friends say I'm complex, straight forward, very friendly, damn humorous, fun loving, logical thinking person, intelligent, too good and an idiot.
23. I google my name and see where my name ranks in the pages in my free time.
24. I can quit my job right now for a challenge.
25. In the past 5 years i might have gone to temples not more than 20times. In this year 2009, i went to temple on Dec 31st 2008 midnight(1st- 12:00AM). What a wonderful way to start a new year. Right? On my b'day. And on the day i got job. That's it.
26. As a child i always love rains and got drenched many times. I used to roam on my bicycle on the entire roads during and after rain. If there's a rain on early morning, my dad used to wake me up knowing how i enjoy the beauty of nature and rain.
27. I make quick, reliable, trustworthy friends faster. I have 1ox of friends in college and equally online too. Among my online friends 90% are my juniors, sub juniors and one guy has just passed out his 12th and is an ardant fan of my blog :D Engineers love this blog. hehe..
28. My love story started in Orkut all with a scrap. Little did i know then that i would be loving her in no time.
29. Most of my blog readers find my life and blog very interesting and even conveyed the same to me. And for the blog posts, i always write the content first and then the title, 1st para and PS.
30. You will get amazed seeing my text messaging skills on mobile. My old nokia has all white keyboard and i can literally close my eyes and still type sms text faster than a newbie B-) Now, that skills has diminished as i do not send even 10SMSs in a month.
31. In my schooling, my hobbies list included but not limited to playing chess, watching cricket, tom n jerry cartoons, philately, drawing, badminton, cycling, video gaming. Later internet and PC gaming took over everything.
32. I love my dad very much and to the best of my knowledge he doesn't know that! Would love to tell him someday that how much i love him.
33. Till my engineering i never went to a restaurant and least do i know the menu items available in such places. It was in my 2nd year of engineering that i went to a restaurant with friends. And in 4-2 it was like a weekly trip with my batch. By that time i turned out to be a freelancer and thus earned few extra bucks online for my mobile bills, petrol in bike and these parties. Financial independence rocks.
34. I acted as a personal English-Telugu and vice-verse translator for my principal Sister Janithya in my 2nd, 3rd, and 4th classes. She was proud of me and I'm was a live exhibitor of our school standards for the rest of parents who come to meet her.
35. I'm a bad cook. But I can cook white rice extremely well.
36. The only complete sentence that i can speak in Hindi is "Krupaya dhyan karo.. ghadi no. xxxx Howrah se Yeswanthpur jane wale ghaadi ek no. platform mae aa rahee hye".
This is the only line that Ashok too knows and he taught me this when i said i do not know Hindi.
37. I once sang a song.. that too a Hindi song for her, recorded it on mobile, converted it to mp3, uploaded it and emailed the link as a New year gift with the song lyrics that i managed to put on a good image using photoshop, wishes and an apology letter. I realized then that i'm a horrible singer and imagine.. she never spoke with me till date from then :-/ It was one of her fav. songs.
38. Even on a hot summer and mid day i need luke warm water to take bath.
39. I'm so impatient that i run 3 floors up the stair case than waiting for the elevator to get down to 0 from 3.
40. The 'crazy me' can get down running on a rolling up escalator from first floor to ground at BigBazaar mall, Ameerpet. All for a pic and unmetered fun!
41. Black and Orange are my favorite colors. Next comes white and then blue and all the others. There's no particular color that i do not like. My colour preferences change depending on the things on which they appear.
42. More than one third of the blog posts are written and published past mid night 12.
43. To our knowledge and other friends observation, I and Ashok are the only two students in college who can shout and converse or run from any block to any block at any point of time in a day under anybodies supervision. And during those runs we used laugh like hell and if it is for fun and laughs, we never cared what others would think of us. We tried to live every moment of life.
44. Surprsingly, all during my life, the people who taught me English had a greater impact on my life and the way i see it. They have built up my character and what i'm today. Sr.Janitya during primary schooling, Mr. Babu Antony during Higher classes, Dr. JayaRamulu during my intermediate education and Dr.Hanumantha Rao during Engineering.
There are very few others whom i adore. Mr. MVP and Mr.Ajit are the other two.
45. I consider numbers 6,7 and 9 are lucky though i have no preferences to any numbers. If i had to choose some or say some then those would be the numbers.
46. In few slam books, i filled the "My aim" space with - "Will start my own firm some day. Will be an entrepreneur." during the end days of my Engineering. I dream big.
47. If i have to divide my student life in two equal parts, i rate my 4th year of engineering on one side and the rest 15years of education to other to equal the ratio. Got it? ;) And if there's a chance, i skip my 2 years of intermediate from my life. Horrible 2 years. But i learned life there and later lived it up in Engg.
48. I like Home made food, Thumbs Up with samosa, icecreams, kushi movie, beach, candle lights, orange skylight that get reflected on white walls during some evenings, shape of kinley mineral water bottle, volvo buses, any pen with only black ink to write, smell of new text books( lol, the fragnance still remains the same as i never opened them in engg), my watch, melodious music, alu chips, fried ground nuts, hot jilebi, sugarcane juice, Appy, Sprite, Yamaha, Nokia, Most Wanted PC game, Google, my wallet and my love. There are many many others and it makes a bigger list. This is what i could think of while compiling.
49. In my home, my dad or mom never ever forced me to wake me up on a holiday till midday. They never tell me a single work to do. They groomed me up with such extraaa care and love. Sometimes my mom says in a kidding fashion.. "If this is the case, then definitely in near future the girl who comes will scold me out for bring you up this way."
50. Are you reading till now? I can get down on my knees keeping the Ego aside to propose the girl whom i love even if i knew there are good chances for rejection. But i doubt if i will be able to still keep my trademark smiling face then.
51. I just wanted to end this post with 51points as i cannot pen down 451points right now.
And finally, i took long time to write 51points and you too took much time to read on. Can't you spare 2minutes of your time now to write a comment on this if you have read till this line entirely? That boosts of some blogging spirit.
PS: There can come a part-II of this post. Surprised on what's more to write still about me? hehe.. Scroll up to point 22 and the last word in it. It is said for that. Not a joke.
PPS: 3:10am Need some sleep.
Cheers! (Non-alcoholic)
