5 people who top your shit list..... And why:

1. My mother's cousin..for molesting me when I was a child.
2.My mother in law for all the times she emotionally tortured me. For telling me that I deserved it, when I lost my baby.
3. Islamic religious leaders in Malaysia, who keeps telling woman how to behave.
4.Taliban leaders for dehumanising woman with all their fatwa's
5. Dr, Mahathr Mohammed, for declaring Malaysia as an islamic country



Close brushes with death/danger:
1.The day I fell off from my horse. I was learning to gallop and my instructor told me, you need to kick the horse twice to make him know tht you want to gallop and I kicked the horse twice... without realizing..i wasn't even holding the rein. I don't really remember what happend, except when my back hit the ground with a thud, I remember thinking"there goes my spine". Fortunately, apart from occassional back pain.. I am alive and fine.

2.The first time I wore a Saree and decided to go for a pillion ride on my friend's Yamaha RX100 bike.. Saree got caught in the wheels and I was thrown off the bike in the middle of the busy Hosur road..The fall wasn't as painful as the thought tht everyone saw my faded blue 'grandma style'panties..

3. I am allergic to prawns and accidently had a tofu curry, special order with advanced notice that, there shouldn't be any prawns. Somehow after second mouth I couldn't breath and upon checking the curry, there was one single prawn inside. According to the chef it must have accidentally dropped inside the pot. I had anaphylactic reactions and the nearest hospital was 45 mints away. No one thought I would survive. I didn't carry my adrenaline injection and learned a lesson the hardest way. Never assume that I can be safe..
4. When I was expecting my son I had another anaphylaactic shock and the doctors said they can only save the mother or the child. It was scary. i wans't so much worried about dying, but I didn't want to lose my son. Luckily medical technology is so advanced tht both of us survived

Preferable modes of suicide, in descending order:
1. eating prawns
2.valium
3. i don't need option 3,4,5. I need to eat one tiger prawn and then take 10 valium.. I can surely knock the pearly gates!!!


5 Guilty pleasures:

1.Biting my nails
2. laddu..gulab jamun
3. 8 hours of undisturbed sleep, wihout hearing, mama is it time to wake up, I want to go to the Loo, etc
4. Dreaming abt the knight in shining armour..
5. Dreaming about going to an Island far away from everyone and living happily..

5 things you never want to forget:
1. The day I learned I am pregnant
2. The day I lost the baby
3.The day the doctors want told me I will never be able to have a child
4. The day I learned that I am preganant again and beat the medical science
5. The day I held each of my three babies in my hand..

Happened to see your tag.

Shit-list: it seems #1 is common for all. But in my case it was not just one. Several cousin/uncles mentally torture me whenever they get a chance!! But yeah..they made me somewhat strong; I would say.

#2: your mother-in-law is also a woman. How a woman can do this to another woman?!!

#3: No wonder why you argued with my "food for scarf-thoughts"
But I hope that I didn;t hurt you. I never meant to hurt anybody.

Close brushes with death/danger:
This made me so scary. You are so blessed yaar!!
