25 Random things about me

Ok, so compulsive writer has tagged me to write 25 most random facts about me. Truth is that everything about me random. This should be easy, Lets go

1. I am blind. For those who know me, it's a given. My own mother may pass right in front of my face and I will not be able to see her. People generally confuse this blindness for snobbery, or an "attitude" problem, but that indeed in untrue. So next time if you bump into me on the road, say "hi" ok? Thanks to my blindness, I have lost innumerable potential friends, bumped into oh-so-many (poles, desks and other furniture) and also suffered from multiple minor fractures
2. I get nervous very very easily and whenever I'm nervous I fall down. Hmm, well, yeah I do. It's happened way too many times for me to argue with the above statement. Right from the time I was in school, till date when I have something really important at work, I just have to fall.
3. From the time I can remember I have always loved Shahrukh Khan. I have watched all his movies, fantasized about being his wife, collected postcards and stuck them on notebooks and done all that cheesy stuff. I also have a very soft corner for Sourav Ganguly.
4. I am very lazy. Apparently I take lazy to another level (Kunal, Shakti can vouch for this). I also adore my sleep. I have slept for over 16 hours at a stretch. I can stay up all night but it is very difficult to wake me up in the morning.
5. I love Indianized Chinese food. I could eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner. On that note, I also love eating out
6. I feel a sense of pride every single time I hear our national anthem. I am proud to be an Indian and love India in spite of all it's flaws.
7. I love long showers! I spend at least one hour having a bath each day.
8. I don't like bad grammar- anyways, no ways, babez, in da club are not my scene. Also when people call me "poo", I hate it
9. I love the rain. I can look out of my window for hours, dance, sing and get wet when it's raining
10. I am very picky when it comes to men and have a special thing for men who can sing or play the guitar (I don't know why). I love it when a guy touches the feet of elders at a public gathering (weddings for eg). I think it tells a lot about where he comes from. I also have a thing for brains over brawn , although a combination would be ideal :)
11. Apart from laziness I also take hindi to another level.
12. I love traveling and am really glad my job allows me to. I have traveled to quite a few places around India and the world and can live permanently out of my suitcase.
13. I am extremely emotional, I cry at the drop of a hat. I also cry when I'm angry which sux, cause I've already almost lost the battle by then. I cry at movies, after watching emotional tv shows at anything and everything
14. I am a good listener and often give my true opinion when asked. Friends generally come and share their inner most secrets with me and I am pretty good with them
15. My face gives away everything. Hence it becomes really difficult for me to lie. If I don't like you, I could try my best to pretend but you'd know anyway
16. I HATE flowers and stuffed toys. No reason but I do, from the very beginning.
17. I love surprises. Anything from a small wrapped gift to a nice expensive dinner, I love it all! I am also a self confessed shop-o-holic. I love buying anything. I mean I could enter a hardware store and come out with my bags full.
18. When I like someone, I try so hard not to show that I like him, the person almost begins to think I hate him. So if you think I hate you, that actually means I get weak knees when you're around. Which goes to prove, I'm pretty good with creating confusion. For myself and others
19. I love holding onto my past. I have such awesome memories from then, I find extremely it hard to let go of them
20. I've always wanted to win an award. for anything. I have practiced my thank you speech innumerable times in front of the mirror and in the shower using the shampoo bottle for a mic
21. It is very easy to embarrass me.I go red in the face within seconds. I don't want to give you anymore ideas
22. I envy people who can swim, do math or play chess
23. I never interfere in anyone Else's space. To each his own and I respect everyone's right to live the way they want to
24. I am terrified of cats. They scare the hell outta me
25. I hate to LOSE. I am a very very bad loser. I don't believe in second. You either come first or you lose the race.
