Twenty Three facts about ME !!!

HI,

its my 23rd Birthday on 9Th of February, 2009. so i thought I'd give myself a gift by writing 23 facts about Me.

so here's it.

1.       I was born on 9^Th of February, 1986. This is also the day of perihelion of the Halley’s Comet, which visits the earth once in 76 years.

2.       I am an Aquarian by sun sign, and also Aquarian by moon sign. This is quite weird. Well... I can say am a true Aquarian.

3.       My name CHIBI is quite different and unforgettable. It’s supposed to be the name of a king, who was so generous to give away his flesh to save a dove from a vulture. I also found that in Japanese my name means a “little kid”.

4.       Talking about generosity, I am very generous as that king. I can give away anything of my possession unless I really really want it for myself.

5.       I am a Left hander. This was quite unique till I was in India…

6.       I am born and brought up in the city of Chennai, India and am really proud of it.

8.       I am a very creative person, who thinks very much out of the box that I forget to look into what’s inside it.

9.       I am a social person. I like to make friends and in fact I have friends all around the world in all kinds of ethnicity, but it’s more of quantity than quality, that’s not good.

23.   Coming to the end… I am 23 years old… should I be worrying about it?

Addiction !!

i came across this fact from some site that states " every person in this world irrespective of what they are, have some kind of addiction which they cannot overcome" this holds true for everyone and those who do overcome their biggest addiction are like saints.

it also says, Addiction need not necessarily be materialistic or habitual, it can be something very much craved for, or something your subconscious mind cannot let go, sometimes addiction can be towards a person also.

so, i thought to myself. DO i have an Addiction ? answer is simple.. yes.. i have not one but many addictions, which i try to stop for a long time. 

i never get addicted to things people usually get addicted to.. like smoking, drinking etc.. my addiction is a similar kind.. its called the Coffee.. I am so damn addicted to it. no matter, how much i try to stop, it doesn't work at all, to be specific, i am addicted to coffee smell. i just adore that smell too much, that if u have a perfume with coffee scent in it. i would be yours forever.

the mere thought of the smell would make me want a coffee, it doesn't matter what time or where i am, i just need to drink a cup of coffee. and i don't care, how the coffee tastes as long as the smell and color is good. its more like a elixir for me. it necessarily doesn't make me brisk or active after it. i just drink it for sake of my pleasure. 

so recently, i tried to stop it, again. this time i am bit successful, not in stopping it. but reduction of the number of times i have coffee in a day. what i did was, when ever i wanted to drink coffee, i got myself a hot chocolate. so i would drink it instead of coffee. it went on good..

but unfortunately, i got Addicted to the Hot Chocolate now..
