@Mind curry

Nicely done tag.
thnx for the tag- now i will act like a typical woman(the kinds who tho she knows she is predictable tries to act 'not predictable') and do the tag after a few of them have done the honours :~P (plz apprecicate my honesty)
"Gunda and Chikki" whatever happened to isabella?
Done :)
hey Mathew, thanks for tagging! ETA 1 week :)
No:7 and No:11- that rings so true for me too. Haha chess...wasnt I a great pretender too...until one day my sis laid my pretensions low by mauling me in a tournament in front of our colonymates!
Will do.. I am bored here :(
'My name is red' has a very different writing style. Really difficult to read fast.
@How do we know
hehehe..ofcoz I always so myself as the super powerful dashing hero..!
thank you..
@Ann

@Dhanush
would love to read it too..
@Ajith
Yeah..but am loving as far as I read it…got a strong poetic flavour to it as well.
Good post, as always. Can't believe you commented on my blog. In fact I've been a silent reader of your blog for about a year now, even before I started one. By the way, good to see another soul who love cold guava juice. Am blog rolling you!!
Blogrolling u.. hope you dont mind
"hmmph...Oru "week" thannu ninte "outlook" maati thannaal mathiyoo."
This was so clever and HILARIUOS!Glad i did not pick up "red".Enjoyed reading this tag.And dhnaya tagged me!
hm...nice one..would like to copy this idea with ur permission?...:)
"oh yeah Gunda and Chikki are the Slovakian kids...Isabella is Indian kid of mine"
eeshoyee ithu njaan entha kekunney...slovakian kuttis and indian kuttis...nerathey chettan alle parayane- "lets have more dating and less mating"
Th week-outlook dialog was way too good. My standing ovation to th dude who came up with that. I'll also be insulted if someone asks me about my first car right now. I'd also give my vote to th bakery junction thattukada's over any fast food joint, may it be KFC or Mc Donald's. Awesome places that u've lived in. Strange that noone commented on that. :) great tag machu!
PS: Will hugging pillows count as soft toys? Then am in :)
Oru "week" thannu ninte "outlook" maati thannaal mathiyoo."
