Tags are fun. Especially when they are personal. Chetan tagged me on to reveal my five secrets. you may already know some if you have been a reader of this blog for long. So here goes:
- My first major crush was when I was nine. Strangely I am not ashamed to admit the level of mushiness that I experienced.
- My artistic talent sucks royally yet I sailed through architecture college. Even managed to top my final year.
- I have been stuttering sometimes severely since I was six. I have come to terms with it now and do not let it affect me as much as it used to.
- I used to devour books fiction and non-fiction alike before the Internet came along. I am ashamed of my attention span now.
- I like to be left alone but my biggest fear is being alone.
Passing the tag along to Ash (her secrets), Confused (his secrets), Bongo (his secrets), Neha (her secrets), and Sampada (her secrets). Drop me a line (a link in the comments will do too), folks when you get around to completing it.
My other tags: Silly Tag and the Book Tag.
Update: All people I tagged have revealed their ’secrets’. Check them out.

Read your Sonali post. Nice childhood innocent honesty!
And yeah, about the Review Me thingy… is it legal for us international students to make money from online stuff? and about the bank info, do i need to provide the name of my bank or the a/c number. (Not that I expect my blog to be selected though, given the poor hit count :( )

Piker, as long as it does not count as work hours, it is fine. You get a 1099 form (business income) when you file taxes. Nope, you don’t need to provide a bank a/c number. They paypal you the money or send you a check.

Can’t believe you’re giving me homework. When is it due? :)

Confused, good boy!
Havoc, heh. Your ‘love ke kisse’ continued. Want me to reveal them too?
Twilight, sssshhhhh…I meant to reveal lesser secrets. Now tinda is more of a blog-secret than real-world secret. BTW I should have tagged you too.
February 7th, 2007 at 12:54 am reply
Yeah, I usually do feature in your tags :p.
February 7th, 2007 at 1:22 am reply
Twilight, don’t let my forgetfulness stop you. Consider yourself tagged. Ab apni pol kholo.
BTW, are you using IE? I ask coz your comment got thru but I haven’t been able to comment after I installed the Translator plugin.

It has been done.

Sampada, Thanks. The post is updated with your ’secrets’
February 8th, 2007 at 3:20 pm reply
Your brutally honest take is just amazingly brave, my friend (esp. when it’s not necessary at all, at least on this medium). Now, we should really meet. So, when are you coming to Holland?
February 8th, 2007 at 3:50 pm reply
Chetan, hopefully soon. Trust me, I wish to meet you and your family too. If not for professional reasons, we will definitely make a Euro trip hopefully before you move again :)

February 15th, 2007 at 11:57 am reply
Twilight, Great! would love to hear about your secrets :) And I was right, the translation tool messes up the comments if opened in Firefox. Hope the plugin author fixes it soon.
