I Spy

I think I'm an idealist, and a very stupid one at that
Tall women freak me out; I find short women endearing
I've had the good fortune of having wonderful managers throughout my short career and I'm very grateful for it
I hate shampooing; it always reminds me that I'm losing hair
I love to sing and wish I was better at it
Whenever I get into a nice rhythm at work I take a break to watch a sitcom or read the news; this habit is proving to be very bad for my career
I wish I knew myself better
I'm always cold and I hate ceiling fans
I still think of myself as too young and immature; this sometimes prevents me from having an intelligent conversation with people
I am a comedy freak and love to watch sitcoms. I watch them over and over again until I know every dialogue from every episode from every season by heart
I'll be the quietest person in the room until the conversation shifts to politics or movies
I get emotionally attached to people and workplaces and this makes me take irrational decisions sometimes
I listen to a song I like over and over and over again until I can't listen to it anymore.
I wish I would get a chance to act in a play, but am too scared of doing anything about it
I think men are just better at driving than women
I get annoyed when people keep saying they will go back to India to settle but never do
I wish I was more organised
I think that I am in the wrong profession
I wish I could write better; I'm jealous of people who write interesting blogs
I avoid confrontation even if I'm convinced I'm right; this has led to some unwanted complications
I sometimes judge people too quickly
I spend 20 hours of my day in front of my laptop; I'm aware I need to get a life
I hate it that I keep postponing getting back into shape; I'm using the word 'back' liberally
I love New York and call it home even though people make fun of me for it
My favorite song is 'Chaiyya Chaiyya'. I have been listening to it atleast once a day since it released in 1998. That works out to approximately 3650 times so far
I don't subscribe to any religion; I don't like it when people automatically assume I'm a Hindu. I think its disrespectful to Hinduism
I think jokes based on race are hilarious
I did NOT like Swades. SRK ruined it for me
I was a huge SRK fan in the 90s; I have grown up since
I am very competitive and find it difficult to just 'take it easy'
I can come across as very cynical
I hate it when someone hijacks my conversation
I am stubborn, I refuse to conform and I don't listen. I want to do my own things, take my own time figuring the rights from wrongs and in the process discover myself. My life in the past few years has been a journey of self discovery and self realization, a journey at breakneck speed
I think I have a light skin fixation
I believe every person should read "My Experiments with Truth" by Gandhi atleast once. It changed my outlook and thinking for the better
I hate people who blame Gandhi for India's problems
I continue to await that phone call that will tell me that everything's ok with the world; I'll wait as long as I have to
