Timeless Reflections!

100 Things about Me

• ONE OF YOUR SCARS, HOW DID YOU GET IT?

Well, I have a small scar on my left eyebrow. I remember trying to fly like some superhero, and having had a great fall from the cot, hitting my head at the window pane and cutting myself. The scar refuses to go. But now, its been well camouflaged with time :)

• WHAT IS ON THE WALLS IN YOUR ROOM?

Hmmm...a couple of photographs of my family and me, a few paintings done by a dear friend, a calender and some wall decors!

• DO YOU SNORE, GRIND YOUR TEETH, OR TALK IN YOUR SLEEP?

Not that I am aware of :)

• WHAT TYPE OF MUSIC DO YOU LISTEN TO?

well...I am into all sorts of music. It depends totally upon what mood I am in. Love to listen to Enigma mainly in the wee hours of the morning!. Prefer soft rock, trance. Am fond of Hindustani, a bit of Carnatic and old Hindi melodies too. And a few hand picked favorites from Malayalam, especially from movies of 1980s! So its always a pot pourri of choices! :)

• DO YOU KNOW WHAT TIME YOU WERE BORN?

Yeah. At 4.00am. And its said that it was some auspicious hour and day, to be born on!! :)

• WHAT DO YOU WANT MORE THAN ANYTHING RIGHT NOW?

To be with Mr.Pea :)

• WHAT DO YOU MISS?

The endless talks with Mr.Pea, really miss that these days. And yeah, I miss my friends too :)

• WHAT IS YOUR MOST PRIZED POSSESSION(S)?

Hmmm...a tough one! I am a scrap collector of sorts!! hehe! I can't even toss out a scrap of paper someone dear has written on! So, I have a treasure chest of sorts! With everything ranging from a tissue paper on which Mr.Pea has jotted on, to a good luck charm someone special had gifted me. Have a collection of birthday cards, and paper cuttings and blah blah!! I guess you do get the picture! :)

Losing Dear Ones. I can't imagine being left alone in this world without my family and Mr.Pea. I get so upset even thinking of something of that kind.

There's nothing more attractive than messy jet black hair that refuses to stay neat and intense dark black eyes!!

• WHERE CAN YOU SEE YOURSELF BEING PROPOSED TO AT?

Hmmm...Earlier, I used to envision myself being proposed in the classic style with music all around, a table set with candlelight and wine, flowers arranged all over and the perfect proposal speech!! But there was no music, candlelight or flowers or any proposal speech in real! I can't even remember how or when it happened. And that was the best part. It happened without even us knowing. Unheard(unsaid) melodies are often the sweetest, nay? I couldn't have agreed more!! :)
