I love life and am glad to be here. :) . I love writing- rambling on and on about something or the other all the time... reading- anything and everything from fiction, non-fiction, I even read through the advertisements on newspapers and magazines :) Listening to music - any kind of music - rock, jazz, country, Hindi movies anything rhythmic and melodious… And watching movies - English, Hindi, Bengali, foreign language- cinema I feel surpasses language barriers. At other times I like walking barefoot on beaches and green grass and watching the blue sky and mountains and the sun falling down inside the sea and then rising up from behind blue mountains, looking a the bone-coloured moon hanging from the sky, baking cakes, watching little kids play and playing with them, talking and chatting to my friends, clicking pictures of anything and everything etc etc.
