Eight Random Facts: Yet Another Tag

I got tagged by Ganesh. The tag is pretty boring but since I’ve nothing else to blog now, I’ll do it anyway.

Rules:
1. Each player starts with 8 random facts about themselves.
2. People who are tagged, write a blog post about their own 8 random things, and post these rules.
3. At the end of your post you need to tag 8 people and include their names.
4. If you fail to do this within eight hours, you will not reach Third Series or attain your most precious goals for at least two more lifetimes.

I don't care if I don't reach third series or attain my most precious goals because I don't have any. Anyway here goes my shot:  

Disclaimer: All the true things I’m about to tell are shameless lies.

1. I was a perfectionist till my 12th grade; had precise timings for doing all my chores and kept my room real clean with each object having specific positions. And after entering college, I became a lousy couch potato.

2. I’m a remote control abuser; I keep on changing channels on TV and people tend to get really irritated with that.

3. I love to take long walks at dusk.

4. I know this sounds weird but I’ve seen this same dream about 4 or 5 times when I was really young. There was a Rubik’s Cube on a table and it slowly moves to the edge and finally falls on to the floor; And before the cube hits the floor, I wake up.

5. I don’t think I’ve a rigid personality. It keeps changing from time to time; so different people have different perceptions about me.

6. I’m selfish.

7. I usually like the villains in movies than the heroes.

8. Do you have problems in life? If you do, I don’t give a rat’s ass, coz I’ve got my own.

And the tag is passed on to Karthik, Rakesh, Syam, Rohit, Kishore, Anjali, Deepti and Mathew. Some of these bloggers might have already taken up the tag, if so, ignore this one.

I am still a perfectionist though a more chilled out one now but def not a lazy couch potato :) Me too a remote control abuser that got me my own TV :p I have this dream of sitting in the exam hall and then not knowing what to write! Exam jitters I guess since it's not been too long since I left college! The rest I will jot down in the tag :)

Good one Sir!

Deepti said...

Will do this .. though i have already done something similar ... :)

Deepti said...

And I abuse the remote control too!!

I think am a selective perfectionist...like if am cleaning the house I dont like half jobs...but in other areas like food , I dont mind half boiled eggs..;-D

Talking of villians..I sometimes like them more..for eg in Gladiator and who can hate Jack Nicholson in silence of the lambs..probably when u see acting par excellence you admire them more..

thanks for the tag!

@silverine: Thank you Mme! ;) I too had exam dreams, but not about writing exams, but getting rock bottom marks. :)

@deepti: Thanks for taking the tag! I thought it's the boys that are the stereotypical remote control abusers, but now you and silverine are proving me wrong.

@mathew: Hehe, selective perfectionist!!, that's a good concept. Yes absolutely, sometimes the acting prowess of villains overshadow those of the heroes, and that's when I love the film. And that's why I admire Jack Nicholson and Kevin Spacey.

@g-man: Boring in the sense that usually people are not interested in knowing about the trivial things about others. I can see a lot of remote control abusing bloggers around here, hehe. Wide spread epidemic I suppose, ;).

Tag done Sir!

thomas said...

@deepu: Plus they get to do good rape scenes, ;); if you can rememeber the old mallu movies with Ummar and Jose Prakash as villains. Also, the dudes are very ambitious and yet not quixotic like the heroes.

@brocasarea: Thank you!! And thanks to Mathai too!!

@deepti: Vokey, I'm jumping over to "mindspace" now.

@silverine: Yes, I saw the tag. I also saw my dilapildated future condition description! But you didn't give a chance to respond (check "enable comment" for that post)
