Pending Tag And A Good News?

with 21 comments

Scorpria and Bluemist tagged me with something called love, betrayal, kick butt tag.

1. If your lover betrayed you, what will your reaction be?

I would be heart broken at first and then move on with my life.

2. if you can have a dream to come true, what would it be?

Go around the world visit all good places with my wife.

3. What is your idea of a perfect date?

Spending time with my lover (Now WIFE !, don’t get wrong ideas) alone.

4. What would you do with a billion dollars?

Go to point 2. But I will have a huge chunk left. I would get a Hummer, a villa and the list goes on.

I would start a business.

That would be the greedy part of me.

We would have a lot to talk about when its free money. That’s the primary reason you wouldn’t get a billion dollars just like that.

You need to earn it to enjoy it.

5. Will you fall in love with your best friend?

I already have and have married her.

6. Which is more blessed, loving someone or being loved by someone?

Being loved is the best feeling in this world.

7. How long do you intend to wait for someone you really love?

If she is getting ready, I would wait. I wait outside her office to pick her up. In short she keeps me waiting. And I can wait for ever. Well I am the husband.
No, I didn’t wait long I got married at 23.

8. If the person you secretly like is already attached, what would you do?

Move on.

9. If you like to act with someone, who will it be? Your gf/bf or an actress/actor?

Oh ! I cant act !

10. What’s your favorite love quote? Dont have a favorite, but love is understanding, love is endless, love is ever lasting, love is forgiveness, love is caring, love is sharing, love is everything…

11. How would you see yourself in ten years’ time?

Spending time with my family. A good father and living a less complex life.

12. Why are you doing this tag?

This is what Bloggers do.

13. What kind of person do you think the person who tagged you is?

Scorpria is humorous. Bluemist looks at life the simple way.

14. Would you rather be single and rich or married but poor?

Like I said I would love a less complex life.

15. What’s the first thing you do when you wake up?

I get the newspaper and start reading.

16. Would you give all in a relationship?

YES !!.

17. If you fall in love with two people simultaneously, who would you pick?

That would be either lust or just an infatuation.

Its not love.

18. Would you forgive and forget, no matter how horrible a thing that special someone has done?

Yes. Thats what love is all about. Its all about fogiving, forgetting the bad things and focusing on the good things.

19. If you get to go back in time and fall in love all over again, would it still be with the same person?

Yes.

And the good news is that I am moving !. 

Landlady “xy, you were the best tenant we ever had”

me ” The security deposit? how much are you gonna DEDUCT???”

LL “You were a good tenant”

me “THe MONEY!!!!”

LL”I will give half as cheque and half as cash”

me “No give the entire amount as cheque”

LL ” No there would be income tax problems”

me “If you pay your income tax there wouldn’t be any problems”

LL” But the bank is having 2 days holiday”

me “What difference will it make if you giving a cheque?”

 

and the conversation continues.

The bottom line is on how people find it difficult to return money they have taken. When they were on the receiving end they were with open hands. Now they are showing their errr back to me.

Anyways like Nita said, I hope am not jumping from the frying pan to the fire. 

So I would be on the offline mode for a couple of days, to get the internet set up, unpack etc. I have not been blogging/commenting for a while now :( I am too busy with so many things these days and I know am missing so many good posts !! :(

July Tag Season

with 31 comments

Vishesh and Nita tagged me with the simplest tag of this ‘tag season’

    Write 6 words.

 Love, Family, Faith, Dreams, Happiness, Friends

 

       Ten things people here do not know about me

 

  1. I day dream a lot.
  2. I am cynophobic.
  3. I love music when it’s played in full volume.
  4. I (plan to) exercise everyday.
  5. My nickname is xylene because my first email id(1999) started with ‘xylene’.
  6. I hate vegetables.
  7. I am patient (for 5 minutes).
  8. I watch cookery shows, although I don’t try out any.
  9. I am a Piscean.
  10. I love color green.

 5 People I love to hate?

 

  1. ‘Auto driver type’. I don’t like people who change their word every 100 meters.
  2. ‘Destroy something else to get back type’. To define this kinda people I have to go back to college when one guy who had strong grudges against my friend, pulled out my friend’s bike’s petrol tube to get back at him. There was a BIG fight after that. :D . I don’t like such cowards.
  3. ‘The preach only, no practicing type’ or ‘looking at the speck of sawdust in the brother’s eye while paying no attention to the plank in his own eye type’   This is self explanatory.
  4. ‘The leech type’ who tries to use others for their own benefit. This includes some people who come over, when they are visiting the city, spend a week get their work done and then don’t call again, until of course when they visit the city again.
  5. ‘Typical relative type’ who poke his/her head in every matter.

  

I am tagging Balu, Suda, sandeep, Reema and ish. I think everyone else has done this, if not, be my guest.
