Useless trivia about me :)

The ‘Work to be done : Time available’ ratio has suddenly gone haywire. I simultaneously enjoy and hate such phases.

My tough exterior is just my defense mechanism.

I am ambidextrous. Really. I can write, play badminton tennis or bowl, even stir with my left hand as well as the right hand.

I love to solve crossword puzzles and sudoku puzzles.

Sometimes when I feel intense love for somebody, I actually get stomachache.

I wish I was ambidextrous! Having hurt my dominant hand I've been learning to write with the other one. It's very slow. Plus I still automatically pick up a pen with my left (dominant) hand then have to transfer it to my other hand to write. Must be very cool to be able to use both.
I liked your random things about you posts. I'll use them sometime on my blog when I run out of ideas. Josie x

Oh...good luck with your recovery. And perhaps some good will come out of this...you may learn to write just as well with the other hand. And sure, be my guest...I'd love to read random facts about you too :)

‘Geographically challenged’

I laughed my guts out while reading this . Then I had another bout of laughter thinking of all the incidents that happen with me. For a long time now I have known that I am, what I like to call, ‘geographically challenged’ :) Situation 1 - If I go inside a building (happens mostly with residential buildings), then after I exit the lift (elevator) or come down the stairs, I cannot quickly locate the gate ! Situation 2 - If I am inside a building, I will routinely point in wrong directions to indicate places outside the building. Situation 3 - I am presently at office. I have come here from home. Now I have to go to some place where I have always gone from home and never from office. What do I do ? I go home first and from there I go to that place. It doesn’t matter if it is a longer distance or takes more time. I have to do this, because simply have no mechanism to re-align my mental map to my present location ! Situation 4 - Another thing is that if I have come to your place in

The balance of nature

The Japan earthquake and tsunami managed to bring tears to my eyes. It is terrible to see the amount of damage …to humans, to property, to the landscape…to lives…and it will take ages to restore some sense of normalcy. Life as they knew it before this disaster is lost forever for all the affected people…those who are still alive. :( Call me weird or naïve or stupid or un-informed or anything, but I really believe that we humans have managed to bring things to such a level where Nature has to act to restore the balance. How else does one explain the rise in the frequency of natural disasters and the increased intensity of the damage they cause each time they occur ? The uncontrolled population increase over the centuries itself has been responsible in robbing the Earth of its natural resources. Add to it the greed of humans…we can’t take just as much as we need…we have to take more and hoard. We don’t think of preservation, of regeneration or of repaying what was taken. We cross the
