Nanta's Tag

See here is the story.. I was walking down this crowded by-lane near the Harvard Yard and I saw a hole. I wanted to avoid it and so with great effort I walked or attempted to avoid it.. But in all my troubles I actually ended up falling into it!!!!!!

Sad, pathetic, lying rite?? So I shall not even attempt it. I got very crazy busy with a an extremely stressful class in what was supposed to be a not very stressful semester!!!! And I waited to do this tag bcoz it means a lot to me.. A fun post which reuired some thot process. So I am going to attempt it now..

10 Characters I fell for if they are Real

1) Arjun (am not sure of his last name) from Palace of Illusions by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni You know Arjun of the Pandava fame. The book depicted him very nicely..

2)Amit Chaterjee Who doesn't love him!!!!!!!!!! And I thot Lata was a huge bad word for rejecting him..

3)John Galt I read Atlas Shrugged at a stretch for a week. I loved her.. And his around 50 page speech..

4)Ron Weasley Coz he is just soooo cute..

5)Micheal Corleone He was soooooooooo much better in my head than AB Junior or Al Pachino

6)Kane (of Kane and Abel Fame) To be honest I liked Kane and Abel both a lot.. Would love to get my hands on that book again sometime

7)Charlie As the Crow Flies. Hard work pays all the time.

8)Rhett Butler I like him and he is the ultimate dream hero.

9)Julian (Famous Five) I don't remember why..

10)Mr. Pink Whistle Coz he is the coolest fun guy I know!!!


Favourite Random Authors

Enid Blyton

Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni

Vikram Seth

Ayn Rand

Jeffrey Archer

Jane Austen

Maybe not favourite but I read a lot of

Sidney Sheldon

R L Stein - Goosebumps

Francine Pascal - Sweet Valley Series ( I went to an all girls Christian Institution)

Authors I downright hated

Danielle Steel - I gave her a chance a few times. But she failed me over and over again.

The Mills and Boon Series. I refused to be a part of the crappy romantic series reading genre!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
