Starting off

Well, why on Earth would you be reading this?
  1. You are as jobless as I was when I wrote this.
  2. You are someone I know and sent you an email requesting you to read it in your free time. So now you are free or you doing it just as a gesture of goodwill.
  3. You are someone I don't know but someone I know passed you the link asking you to read the blog of someone he knew.
  4. You googled for mahatma+baba and found me on results page 189.

No matter which of the above reason(s) is/are true, here you are, having put in quite a few mouse clicks reading my blog. I would try my best not to disappoint you...yeah thats why I haven't put up my photograph.

Well, so how exactly do I start off with my first blog entry? I will go ahead tell you some random facts about myself (inspired from MintChutney)

  1. I used to hate blogs till 3 months back. I thought they were a waste of time both for the reader and the writer. I still think the same - its just that joblessness is a bigger waste.
  2. Well, if you haven't been pissed off enough by fact #1 and continue to read this, here's fact #2 - All my online profiles say that I "play" basketball, football, squash and table tennis. But the only sport that I am good at is underarm cricket.
  3. I have been wearing glasses ever since I was in Class 2 which would be at 7 years of age. Its only 3 years back that I moved to contact lenses which makes me "think" that I am a lot cooler now.
  4. Okay I picked this one up from here- I sound a lot more interesting on blog than I actually am.
  5. I hate making people wait for me.
  6. I can get dressed and ready in 3.55 seconds. Then I have to wait for others to get ready.
  7. When I am hungry, I eat. When I am bored, I eat. When I am lonely, I eat. When I am confused, I eat. When there is nothing more left to eat, I go buy some more.
  8. I am an avid book reader but I still haven't been able to get past Atlas Shrugged pg 249.
  9. I never watch a British movie in theatres - I need the subtitles.
  10. I love beer - that's the second best thing God ever created. The best is unlimited beer.
  11. Just like people thought Atlas Shrugged is the way the world is supposed to function, I thought Five Point Someone is how my college life is supposed to function.
  12. I am really bad with directions - I have to call up friends to ask how to reach my home.
  13. It took me 1 and a half days to compile this list.

Keep coming back for more...
