I have been tagged by Nandita….here goes….
I have been thinking about this for quite some time now. Probably for all of the 27 years of my existence on this planet. Surprisingly it wasn’t as easy I thought it would be. I guess it’s difficult to mould and cleave the truth to present 8 socially acceptable and impressive facts about oneself. So here it goes 8 facts…. The truth about myself as I know it:
1. I LOVE my name: I love to spell out my whole name-Gautam Prabhakar Begde. I sign out my full name at the smallest opportunity with a flourish worthy enough to put to shame rock stars, sports stars and business tycoons all put together. I love to see my name in print and visualize my name on all the important notices, emails, letters, offices etc. I feel my name gives me some kind of a cosmic edge over everyone else.
2. I LOVE numbers: I love to dazzle people with mathematical calculations. Close friends are targeted most often. Saying something like “If you add 9 to 4743 and multiply the result by 33, u will get the square of 396” gives me a great high.
3. I set impossible targets: I love setting impossible targets for myself. Something like running a half-marathon or trying to be the most well read person among all the people I know. Usually I fail but I end up with a lot more than I had expected.
4. I LOVE the Sea: There is no sight more beautiful than the ocean with its infinite shades of blues and greens all contributing to present a spectacle that man can never replicate. I love the calming effect of the sea, its magical effect of relieving one of all his/her worries and feel one with the world. I love the sea… and loathe people who regard it as just a huge body of sea.
5. I am great fan of sweet corn soup… A Chinese meal or if I can help it any meal is incomplete without it. It’s a habit bordering on the verge of addiction. A friend of mine used to think its extremely endearingJ.
6. I talk a lot to myself…. Even during a conversation with someone, I tend to trail into a conversation with my inner self. Not many people notice this but people close to me find this amusing and sometimes extremely irritating.
7. I strongly believe that Tendulkar batting at his best is as close as we will see God in action.
8. I love pampering people close to me. I like transforming people close to me into imaginary kids that need to be taken care of all the time. It borders on madness… some people will vouch for that.
9. Oops I have come to 9… couldn’t help it…. I love no 9. I think it’s the most balanced number in the number set... Another fact-my destiny number is also 9.

After knowing this crazy guy for almost 6 months now, I have few additions to make:
1.Every morning after breakfast he declares a name for himself (apart from Gautam), based on the way he dresses up for the day. For eg: Thomas Murugesan, Narsimham Vardarajan.
2.He is completely MAD about his CAR. Even after central locking he’ll patiently check all the doors again.
3.He drives at 20 on a highway , and at 40 on a crowded road !!
4.He makes funny faces (some funny nose movements to be precise) while looking into the mirror, especially when trying out something new while shopping.
5.He repeats every joke of his at least 4-5 times, and expects you to laugh every time too. Although he is usually generous enough to thank you for laughing on the bad jokes.
6.Although he never accepts it , but the way he loves pampering his close ones, he also expects them to pamper him like a 5 year old kid :):)
The most important part which i forgot, which goes out to all the single girls around.. " He is an extremely adorable person and an absolute sweetheart.."
Grab the oppourtunity , before it gets too late..
