The task:  A recent picture of you and 15 interesting facts about yourself

                                              

So this is a badly cropped pic of me. This was taken by Ilaeria at a recent Hot Pot party at a friend's house. I look like quite the expert at Hot Pot-ing but in reality, I'm far from it.. ;-)

So Fifteen interesting facts huh? Wow... this challenge doesn't ask for much does it? Anyway, here goes...

1. I'm a pop culture and news junkie. I love knowing everything about EVERYTHING. I thrive on trivia and random facts.
2. I want to adopt a girl at some point in my life; when *I* grow up that is. 
3. It may come as a surprise to people who've only known me for the last few years but apart from my shoe obsession (that's a birth defect) I used to be very, VERY tomboyish. I had very, very short hair (Rihanna short sometimes) & owned 1 dress, a couple of skirts and 10 pairs of jeans. Not sure what happened there.. ;-)
4. I love technology, tech news, gadgets, and anything tech related. I get this from my Dad. 
5. I love Harry Potter. So. So. Much.
6. I'm very indecisive
7. I'm crazy about dogs & can't wait to get one again 
8. Incorrect grammar drives me insane
9. I can read & speak 3 languages (English, Bengali & Hindi) but can't write in my mother tongue, Bengali *hangs head in shame*
10. I don't believe in astrology or anything but I have fun analysing people based on their zodiac signs. Sometimes the personality traits are spot on.
11. I can't get through a day without music - the genre doesn't matter. Music is all about how it makes you feel and a lot of the time it's about the words too. 
12. I love quotations & "collect" them. Yes, laugh. I have 4 journals full of quotations. 
13. I have a Bachelor's degree in English Lit & sometimes I really wish I'd done my Masters in Lit. Reading & then being critical about what you read - pretty much a dream uni course ;)
14. Sometimes when people talk, certain words or phrases they use trigger off songs in my head. If I know them well enough, I start singing aloud otherwise I sing in my head. 
15. I don't like cricket. Yes, really. I used to, but that was a long time ago. The only sport I really follow is Roger Federer, ah, sorry, I meant tennis.

There! All done :)
