Tagged by blood lime and reflector, here I am buddies with the high eights.

So these are my most descent and recent likes and dislikes and loves and hates and dreams, whoever you wish to spell me, I am here, free to be translated. Know more!
EIGHT THINGS I AM MOST PASSIONATE ABOUT
1. WRITING- it’s something like an outlet for my thoughts and expression. Something that takes me into a different world, which I so love.
2. NOT WAKING UP EARLY MORNING- no, this one thing I can’t afford to do, it’s against my philosophy of life, I hate it, when I HAVE to, but I compensate that on weekends, I wake up at 4 in the evening, hee haw.

4. NIGHTS – they never cease to amaze me.
5. MY COUNTRY – we INDIANS can criticize our country, but when someone else says it, my blood literally starts boiling.
6. MY CITY – Kolkata, I consider myself as a hardcore bong, but not a typical one. I miss those slow tram journeys, Lindsay Street, new empire cinema, the literary culture, everything about that city. And darn I am going to miss this year durga puja’s too.
