Hobbies


I have been known to have some normal and some not-so-normal fixations.

Music

I listen to music for on an average 4 hrs a day, which amounts to 1/4th of my day (if you count out sleep) and differentiates me from the generic "I like Music" category of people. Its my preferred way of starting the day and ending it. I like many genres, ranging from alternative to electronic to folk. Arguably, my favorite band is Coldplay. I started playing guitar last year and I hope to get better at it.

Photography

I have always liked photography, and lately I have started taking it seriously. I normally prefer to click people, instead of landscapes and sunsets. But unlike them, not every person is willing to be photographed by a complete stranger with a conspicuous set of lenses. And this has always caused me to be eyed with suspicion. You can check out a few samples in the Gallery, though it high-time I update that rubbish with something good.

Comics and Cartoons

My love for Comics is preceded only by my love for music. Apart from being damn funny, they help me to keep the child in me alive. Among my favorites are Calvin & Hobbes and Dilbert. I also like the action ones by DC and Marvel, especially Batman and Xmen and Alan Moore's creations.

One essential part of being a child is to have a hero. Mine is Spiderman. I used to love his cartoons that appeared on Fox. Looking back, I think I was lucky to be a Spiderman fan, when I made numerous attempts of just flinging myself against a wall to see if I can stick to it, unlike the Superman freaks, who jumped from balconies with arms in air, and later on, legs in cast.

Dancing

I like Salsa, Merengue, Bachata and Lindy Hop, and learnt them for a while. However, the number of moves I retained just miss the double digit mark. Still enough to impress a total noob I hope!

Books

I am sort of an extremely avid reader, and read a book every 3 weeks on an average. I started this list of books I read and what I think about them, starting from 2008 in a chronological order, but it could do with an update now and then -   Books I've Read
