My Eights

Hey buddies, I realized this evening that Marki tagged me for naming my eights. I am not tagging anyone, anyway. But love to hear from you all. It is a quicky hence fogive me for typos et al.

Eight things I am passionate about

1. Flowers - I grow a lot of them and buy too, my buddies call it a feminine virtue but I differ. You can see them everywhere, in my computer, in my car, in my living room, on my table, in my bath, in my cupboard – Crazy Bakra, isn’t it?
2. Music – Indian classical, contemporary, Carnatic, Hindustani, you name it, I love it.
3. Reading - Hindi, English, Telugu – I like to read books, magazines, newspapers
4. Weeding – My small garden with flowers. I also grow strawberries for my little lambs.
5. Rain – I love it. I love it. I love it. I enjoy working in rain all wet no umbrella
6. Travel – I like travel. I feel like Marco Polo badly trapped in Bhilai.
7. My broods – They are my universe perhaps I am running from pillar to post for them only.
8. Fropping around with friends – My newfound love, I am fairly addicted to you all


Eight things to do before I die

1. Visit Kailash-Mansarovar
2. See my children grownup enough so that they don’t need me anymore
3. Bring my wife back, for good, from IIT-Madras, get kissed and get wild – She has researched too much yaar (Padma, please comeback, please. Miss you a lot)
4. Kill my neighbor’s dog
5. Return to Neil & Havelock Islands (Andamans), this time for a lifetime
6. Savor truffle soup (Gerby, are you listening? You promised me)
7. Meet all my fropper buddies – you are amazing people, very intelligent, very prompt, too nice and lovable – EM4T, Soni, Marki, SGS, Tweety, Gerbera, Ladybug, Barbara, Shubhra, Ramya, Busybee, Poi, Lala, Naz, Praveen, Prateek, Saiba, Munmun, Parri, Murtaz, Pradip, Raj, Krishma, Suhani in veil, Asy, Dagny, Punit, Gudiya (Sunshine), Poetic Soul, Solar flare, Sajal, Sumedha, Shorty, James uncle, Merchant bhai, Rakesh, alka, Punit, Biren, Saint, Rakesh, Abhishek, Rosline, Laila, Humenlover, Joe... – Can Bakra die without meeting you all? Nope.
8. Make my will


Eight things I often say

Ciao
Gule guljar, I love you
Lets laugh and dance buddy, bahut stressed out ho gaya, ek joke batao na
You look fresh today!! Naha liya kya? Sachhi !!
Oh, you are delicious
Am I not boring you! Are you sure?
I am liking you more than ever, keep this flower
Please forgive me, I am getting late


Eight books I have read recently?

Please forgive me, no books I have read recently unless they are my children’s coursework. No time Buddies. My cousin gifted me three books 1. For One More Day by Mitch Albom, 2. Cross by James Patterson and 3. Dear John by Nicholas Sparks all beautifully wrapped and preserved for over ten months, exceedingly time starved to read them. I only hope to finish them this summer.

Eight things that attract me to my friends and vice versa

1. Sense of Humor, jest for life, Im looking somebody to laugh with me
2. Help all attitude, it wins friends and potential enemies alike
3. Hurt never attitude, be cool and calm things will come your way if they have not yet come read the next virtue
4. Extreme patience, I have learned to wait
5. Well exercised body, it helps you think positive
6. Clean and well pressed dress
7. Nice presentation with extreme confidence
8. Ability to laugh my butt out without caring for what the others would think for a laugh is pretty contagious

Eight songs I like best

Can’t contain my likes in eight songs, however, I write down some favs in hindi filmi music

1. Hum nay dekhee hai teri aankhon may mehekti khushboo
2. Chalo dildaar chalo chand kay paar chalo
3. Choo kar mere man ko kiya too nay kya ishaara
4. Aye dil e naa daan eh dil e na daan, aarzoo kya hai, guftgoo kya hai
5. Oh jaane wale ho sake to laut ke aana
6. Kehne ko jashn e bahaara hai, ishq yeh dekh kay hairaan hai (This is my mobile smart tune)
7. Hum tum say mohabbat kar kay sanam, hasstay bhee rahe rotay bhee rahe
8. Kaheen door jab din dhal jaye
9. Kal ho na ho - title song
10. Salam namaste - title song

I also love to listen to Panch-ratna kritis of Tyagaraja, Gulam Ali, Jagjit Singh, MS Subbulakshmi, Lata, Asha, KK, Guljar, Javed Akhtar, AR Rahman, Sivamani, Yanni, Madonna…… 

Well. Its so simple. Thats it folks. Now fire me back your comments.
