Okay!...seems like the tagging game is in full swing now….i’ve been tagged by Aftab vai, Aabha, Jalisha, Jycee, Shurovi and Ena ……..so yea, here goes..

 

1.I know what you’re thinking about my hair…I’ve heard that so many times in my life, even from random strangers in the streets…that it looks like that of our Rebel Poet ..i used to hate that, but now I take it as a compliment =)

 

2.And although my deshi people don’t seem to be fans of my hair, it was quite the opposite in China, Malaysia, Thailand…people would ask, ‘Wo! Where did you pump and curl your hair?’, because it was something they would like to do if they got bored of their perfect silky black hair.. =P

 

3.I have a particular accent, which is similar to that of the US…and people usually ask me within minutes of having the fist conversation with me, ‘Did you ever lived in the US?’ …which I didn’t, and the thing is, that’s just how I speak, be it in Bangla, English or any other language.. =S

 

4.I love talking to cats and dogs in the streets…….and I sometimes think I should do a ‘100 Strangers Project’ with them =D

 

5.I was in a Chinese stage play once where I was a street vendor and my role was selling apples…and my only lines were ‘Pinguo ta shuai may la! Wo ta, Wo tien la!!’ =P

 

6.I love riding bikes…and I love riding them FAST….it wouldn’t matter if it rained all day and the streets were all slippery, I wud still get my bike out…so there have been many cuts and bruises as a result of falling off from it =)

 

7.I LOVE sweets…in fact, I’m sort of addicted to them….deshi sweets, chocolates, strawberry cheese cakes, almost any dessert….that probably accounts for my extra pounds =D

 

8.I don’t know if my photos sometimes suggest that I’m materialistic, but the fact is I’m quite the opposite…I’m very bad when it comes to money and make-up =S

 

9.I would rather spend my money on visiting a good exhibition, rather than on bad company…and I think I’ve mentioned it in another photo of mine that I am absolutely crazy for some painters.. <3

 

10.My first preference was to study film-making, but argh, didn’t happen….so I chose the next best thing, Architecture…because it’s creative, and it opens you up to a number of fields…I never regretted my Buet days…they were definitely one of the ‘bestest’ times of my life… =)

 

11.But when it came to practice, I saw that architecture was as commercial as any other field…but I needed a humanitarian purpose for my survival…so I tweaked it a bit, and am now working with Shelter after Disasters… =]

 

12.But again, I miss the creative aspect of it….so that’s where my photography came into existence I guess =D

 

13.I’m more or less a perfect Sagittarian…who likes philosophy, can’t stay at any one place for long, hates details, fears commitments, loves freedom, speaks the truth……etc, etc…=P

 

14.About speaking the truth, I talk very little….but when I do, I tend to be pretty straight forward in my approach ( diplomacy was never my thing) …and people sometimes take that as outright rude, n I guess that way I hurt people without even knowing it…=S

 

15.I really enjoy cooking…..as long as I don’t have to do it more than once a week =P

 

16.I like movies that have some thought put in them….I hate dirty comedies, but love the innocent ones ….like, Kung-Fu Panda! I could watch it over n over again and still have a good laugh…=)

 

17.If I’m to choose between a calm and quiet life in the suburbs and the chaotic life in a city…I’d probably choose the city life…=S

 

18.I get baffled when people ask me, ‘So where’re you gonna settle eventually? What are your long-term plans?’….i have stopped making long-term plans for quite a long time now…and I can not visualize myself in one place for the whole of my life…=S

 

19.Okay…now im getting tired…..i think this whole thing should be cut down to 10, and not 20..a good time to watch Kung Fu Panda may be.. =D

 

20.This is actually the first time im playing it…and hopefully the last too =P
