My 8 Random Facts

Well, I’ve been tagged again, this time by Aki Jinn on 8 random facts about me. Before I start spilling, here are 3 simple rules that you have to follow once you’ve been tagged by me.

The Rules

  1. Players start with 8 random facts about themselves.
  2. Those who are tagged should post these rules and their 8 random facts.
  3. Players should tag eight other people and notify them that they have been tagged.

8 Random Facts On Me

  • Mariuca is actually the Italian name given to me by my Italian professor during my uni days in the US.
  • My all-time favourite perfume is Escape by Calvin Klein.
  • I read my horoscope everyday and somehow, it always seems to relate to my life on that day!
  • My all-time favourite movie is Love Affair featuring Warren Beatty and Annette Bening.
  • My late grandfather was from India.
  • I love Italian food, yummy!
  • I wrote my first short story when I was 8.
  • One of my most embarrassing moments was being caught with a pair of handcuffs in my suitcase at Philly Airport (put there by a friend as a joke!) and I had no way of explaining how they got in there!

So there you have it! And now, I would like to tag these 8 cool people to share their random facts with me:

  1. Eddie John
  2. Christy
  3. Devil Diary
  4. Jean Chia
  5. Champ Dog
  6. Mr. Sandman
  7. Diamond
  8. Egy Reds

Handcuffs? So how did you managed to get away?

Mariuca May 30, 2007 4:03 PM

Emila! I was happily on my way to Chicago and they stopped me and I was of course shocked since I didn't know about it! Somehow I managed to stammer some silly excuse about it being a joke from my roommate and they probably felt sorry for me since everyone was crowding around and staring, so they believed me in the end I guess! :) :)

Marzie! I'm so in love with the Samsons song!! Good choice!

Mizohican May 31, 2007 8:02 PM

Dear Marzie,

First of all, I hate tags :-) Infact my blog is protected by the latest Norton Anti-Tagging software. Don't believe it? Click here to see what I'm talking about :-)

But since you are super duper cool, I will make an exception. :-)

1. I am a Mizo. That's one of the tribes of the extremely diversified culture of great India.
2. The name of my state is Mizoram, close to a 100% Christians in a country with less than 3% Christians :-)
3. I've spent at least more than a year in most of the States of India, and am quite fluent with at least 10 different Indian languages (Mizo, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, Bengali etc).
4. I am a sit-com addict. My computer never switches off, downloading all the latest comedy serials 24/7/365.
5. Apart from my nerdy blog lifestyle, I am also a jock, representating two Indian States in basketball and thus creating a scandalous controversy!!! (Don't even ask!)
6. Also did a brief stint as a VJ for a South Indian regional music channel (english rock program) before joining IIMB, one of the most prestigious B-Schools of Asia.
7. Love junk foodddddd!!!
8. This is the first time I've ever responded to a tag invitation! I never used to pay heed to all the other numerous tags I used to get before. This will also be the only time I will ever respond to a tag since you are super duper cool, or have I mentioned that before? :-)

No Reply June 05, 2007 11:53 PM

So what is the protocol when a blogger tags you for the same meme twice? I hope the blogosphere doesn't implode.

Mariuca June 06, 2007 3:11 AM

Hi Greg, finally I get your cute avatar on my comments page! :) Guess you have to wait and see how and if I get myself out of this double-tag fix :) :)
