A new blog friend, Solilo, (the name is indeed a tongue twister) got me tagged last week with this unique question : picture meme.

How to and what to :

1. You are given a set of questions.
2. Google the image which best suits the answer and post a picture from first page of image search with minimal explanation.
3. After you finish tag 6 other blogger friends and let them know.

Here I go :

1.Your age on your next birthday




--- Sigh ! The person who created this tag is a sadist for sure.

2. A place you’d like to travel to

--- Sphinx…Pyramids…Mummies… Pharaohs….EGYPT it is….and how can i forget, Cleopatra too.

3. Your Favorite place

--- The place where my home is; Palakkad, Kerala.

4. Your favorite food/drink



--- Puttu Kadala (A kerala delicacy) / Orange juice.

5. Your favorite pet


--- Dogs.

6. Your favorite color combination




--- Red and Black. Dark and sexy !

7. Your favorite piece of clothing

--- Formal clothing for men, especially suits.

8. Your all time favorite song





--- Just not possible to arrive at one particular song.

9. Your favorite TV show





--- FRIENDS, anytime !

10. Full name of your significant other






---I am all by myself again, giving no more significance to 'others' !



11. The town in which you live


--- Chennai. I just cant get enough of this place.

12. Your screen name/nickname


--- Vimmuuu. This signature was created for V-lokam and I am glad to have found it when googled. For people wondering about the weird spelling, check it out here.

13. Your first job
--- Have always been in Sales, which people these days refer with a better term, Business Development. ( Yeyyy, I have always wanted to have such a photo in my blog !)

14. Your Dream Job
--- To be a playback singer; cant call it a job though.


15: Bad Habit you have

--- I trust people blindly and end up in trouble only because of that.

16. Your worst fear




--- “There is nothing to fear but fear itself” - Franklin D.Roosevelt

17. The one thing you would like to do before you die

--- Yeah, Live ! I feel some of us just exist in this world; I'd want to live my life atleast once before I leave.



8. The first thing you’ll buy if you get $1,000,000

--- Will not spend a penny from that! LOL. Deposit the cash in a bank, quit work, sit at home and enjoy the monthly interest.


19.Your favourite credo in life.

--- Be positive.
--- Be yourself.




--- Keep smiling.




Now for my revenge and this time I have decided to tag some of my new blog friends :


Remya, Chiranjib, Oorja, Amit, Archie, Praveen

All the best guys !

Like yuo I too trust too mcu, I have paid huge price for it. I have bled profusely :(. But all that was in past, I am unlikely to make such mistakes again. Hopefully.

Red and black are combinations used in horror film credits. lol
