The middle name tag

Written By: amodini - Oct• 08•07

OK, tagged by S. The rules are as follows :

1.You must list one fact that is somehow relevant to your life for each letter of your middle name.
2.If you don’t have a middle name, use the middle name you would have liked to have had.
3. At the end of your blog post, you need to choose one person for each letter of your middle name to tag.

Since I don’t have a middle name, will use “Amodini”.

A – Avid reader. So much to read, such little time ! I always check out more books than I can possibly read, at the library.

M – Motherhood – Despite all my thoughts on this, I find that it does indeed rock your world, and totally redefines your priorities and thoughts on happiness. It’s also much harder than it looks.

O – Oily skin – I have it, and was plagued by pimples etc. during teenage. Now that I’m in my 30’s the oiliness is going away, and I’ve been told that people with oily skin tend to wrinkle less – yay !

D – Detest name-droppers, people with put-on accents, and folks who wear branded clothing and then brag about it. Why not just wear it and keep shut ?

I – Introvert – I probably rate pretty high on the introvert-scale. Polite conversation aside, unless I know you well, or am passionate on the topic, may not speak at all. People are often taken aback when they discover I have a (fairly strong) voice. Email is such a boon. Social situations where you have to polite-talk leave me exhausted.

N – Night-owl. I am one. Much easier to stay up the night than to wake up bright and early.

I – Intuitive – sort of. I often pick up on vibes my husband is completely oblivious to. I pay attention to gestures, facial expressions and body language, and not just the spoken word. My initial impression of a person can be vastly different than that of my husband’s.

Not going by my name (I don’t know anyone who’s name starts with O – do you ?), will tag A Muser, Tarana, Carla and Raj.

    Did not realize you and Choxbox had tagged me for the same! Anyhoo, it’s done! 🙂 Identify with your “D” and “I” — I’m an introvert usually, but once in a while I surprise myself in a gregarious mood and talk 19 to a 12 with complete strangers. Must come from being a Gemini!
