At first, I was too lazy to begin and once I did begin, I became too lazy to complete it!

Thank you @TheSilverist and @starryepiphany for tagging me.

And I'm not going to tag anyone (may be because I don't know 20 people here and the few I know have already done this?)

#1

I am easy to please… and as easy to displease.

#2

I love rain… I love the way it leaves the world fresh and clear and soothing and mellow—all at the same time. And I love the smell of wet earth right after it rains.

#3

I can’t stand bad English: grammar mistakes—urgh!—fake accents and imitations—URRRRRRRGHHH!

#4

I can watch the sea for hours on end and not get bored. The vastness of the ocean and the majesty of the sky make me speechless…. My mind brims with so many thoughts while looking at the sea that I can only be silent.

#5

I accidentally deleted one of my books on Wattpad while trying to delete a draft! :D

#6

Beautiful sights move me to tears... There are times when the beauty of nature is so breathtaking that all I want to do is cry my eyes out-- because it's all so  good and because I want to melt into it and because I know it's impossible and because I don't know if I have gone crazy for wanting it in the first place...

#7

I have an unpleasant tendency to recollect the gross things I may have come across at the most inconvenient of all times-- while having food, for instance.

#8

I have a thing for colours. I love colours-- if the word "love" can be applied to our emotions regarding inanimate things like colours. I like soft colours more than their flashy, bright counterparts. I love baby blue, baby pink and light green and lavender and soothing-to-the-eye kind of yellow and orange, purple and teal and magenta and white and silver and... you get the idea.

#9

I like animated movies. Tangled, Ratatouille, Despicable Me, Ice Age and Up! are some of my favourites. I love Agnes and the minions, and Sid and Manny and Diego. I like cartoons too. I like Masha and the Bear, Shin Chan, Oswald, Bob the Builder and Pingu but not the Powerpuff Girls, Ben 10 or Pokemon.

#10

I am kind of scared of escalators. It’s the first step that frightens me—the way it moves up with a slight jerk. I donno why airports and shopping malls need freaking escalators! I, for one, prefer the good old stairs.

#11

I’m quite obsessed with numbers. It’s not just that I like even numbers more than odd numbers or that 2, 4, 12, 14, 24, etcetera are my favourite numbers— whenever I’m in a room with more than three people, I keep counting them over and over in my mind to see who gets, say, the number 12, or 20, or 48, or any random number without 3 or 7. Sounds crazy, I know. It is rather crazy.

#12

I love books. I love reading but that’s another thing—I love books as in the look of books, the feel of books, the smell of books…… Quite intoxicating.

#13

I love words. I like the way some people play with words and how some of them have a way with words. Beautiful sentences can move me as easily as beautiful sights, and I marvel at the writer/poet/speaker’s ability. And I like the way some texts invite attention to the language—like some of E.E.Cummings’s poems, the twins calling a barn owl a “Bar Nowl” in The God of Small Things and how the child calls Auschwitz “Outwith” in The Boy in Striped Pyjamas and so on.

#14

I think reptiles are totally sneaky.

#15

I get into heated discussions about causes that I believe in—for instance, the liberation of Palestine, the irrationality of linking Islam with terrorism, the Kashmir dispute, misconceptions regarding women’s status in Islam, etc.

 #16

I think comparing Harry Potter to Twilight should be made a criminal offense. I mean, how can you?  Harry Potter has awesome characters like Ron, Fred and George, Sirius, Snape, Dobby, Peeves and Hagrid (not to forget Harry himself, though he is a bit too full of himself at times) and weirdoes like Uncle Vernon, Shan Stunpike, Professor Trelawny, Xenophilius Lovegood and Lockhart and the absolutely detestable Bellatrix Lestrange, Umbridge and Filch. I don’t even want to know what Twilight has.

#17

I used to keep my writings a secret because I put too much of myself into what I write and I am afraid that people may know everything about me just by reading what I have written.

#18

I have learnt more nursery rhymes by watching YouTube with my niece than from kindergarten.

#19

I make up silly, nonsensical songs to entertain my baby :)

#20

I am going to make a miss you card for my husband right after I finish this.
