I was picture tagged by Dhanush

Most Desired celebrity



I am not sure if anyone would recognize this guy. He was the 'ONE' for me. I spend many a days of my youth listening to the Boss. Being 'his' loyal fan, I pestered, nagged, chewed my cousin's brain till he send me 'his' poster. The next problem was more difficult to tackle. Amma didn't let me stick the poster on the wall. After consulting the dictionary, I found a way. Ceiling is not a wall.. So each morning I woke up looking at 'his' cool blue eyes..dreaming of glory days and dancing in the dark..
Bruce Spingsteen and the E street band..
Glory Days
"I hope when I get old
I don't sitaround thinking about it
but I probably will
Yeah,
just sitting back trying to recapture
a little of the glory of,
but time slips away
and leaves you with nothing mister but
boring stories of glory days
Glory days well they'll pass you by
Glory days in the wink of a young girl'seye
Glory days, glory days"


2.Want to do this some day




Watch Aurora Borealis aka as Northern lights
Aurora Borealis..means bringing together Aurora, the Roman goddess of dawn and Boreas the Greek god of north wind.
Imagine on a clear day at twilight time, sitting with the one you love, sipping a nice cuppa of hot chocolate and watching this.. where the light dances and changes in to magical, marvelous shapes and patterns..it will be like watching a fire work display minus the sound effect.

3. Want to visit this place

Blogger is refusing to upload the picture. I have tried to finish this tag for the last 2 weeks.

There are two places that I want to visit. One is where my grandmother sleeps now. I haven't been there yet. A chapter needs to be closed.Somehow I am not willing to/able to do it,

The other place I want to go is Mount Kailas. When I was child, my grandmother told me many stories about mansarovar lake. I want to visit the lake and the mountain.

4. Random favourite

R K Narayan

His real name was Rasipuram Krishnaswami Ayyar Narayanswamy. There is no other writer who can write simply yet so beautifully like R K Narayan. When I read his books, I am transported to Malgudi. I can picture the rows of houses, the tailor shop, the grocery shop etc.

Who can forget Swami and his friends? Who can write so much about normal day to day life in a small town? Only he could do that. He remains my favourite author..

Sorry Dhanush.. I couldn't upload the photo of your page either. Thank you for the tag. Enjoyed doing it
