One of my talented poet friends, Oscar, has nominated me for a Real Neat Blogger award and a Beautiful Bloggers award 🙂

Definitely made me smile! Here are some of the questions he has posed for me to answer :

1.) What’s the best movie you’ve seen this year and why?

Well, I’d have to say Jurassic World for Chris Pratt and the special effects 🙂

2.) If you were a cartoon character, who would you be and why?

I’d be Johnny Quest! I used to adore that character when I was little. Anybody else remember Johnny Quest? 😀

3.) Have you ever read a book where you felt the author was writing about you, which one and why?

I have felt a bit of dejavu  sometimes.. I cannot pinpoint which books or which lines. I read way too much and recall very little of what I read, afterwards, unfortunately.

4.) What would you do if you received a gift of one million dollars, tax free and why?

I would set aside 10% of it for my personal needs. The rest 90% I’d donate to various charities and causes. In a country like India, help is always needed.

5.) If your life was a song, what would the title be and why?

“What doesn’t kill you make you stronger” by Kelly Clarkson! It never fails to cheer me up and is my favourite work-out song 🙂

6.) What was your favorite game to play as a child and why?

I have played a lot of hide and seek and “house” with my cousins.

7.) Would you like to know the day you’re going to die ahead of time? Why or why not?

I’m sort of split about this one. If you know, then you’d be able to say goodbye properly and tie up loose ends. But then again, it would definitely be easier emotionally to not have impending doom over your head 😡

8.) What one thing are you most proud of and why?

I was very proud when I got my degree, it was definitely worth all the hard work and stress.

9.) What one thing would you change about your past and why?

If I change something about my past, it may change things about my life now.. and I’d definitely not want that 🙂

10.) What would you do if you were a man for a week and why?

Ooh! This is an interesting one 😀 I’m not sure I’d enjoy it very much, I’m happy being a woman. That being said, I’d probably just watch people around me and soak in how people treat you differently when you’re a man.

I’d like to nominate two of my favourite poetess’ (under no obligation) for these awards!!
