The predators and the prey
Pranjali wrote: "Q6 do you have a big social group? Who's your best friend and what are they like?"Fortunately yes. Quite a big social group. Then again not a pesky one though. As regards to my friends,I have these 4 friends who are really close to me. They've always been there for me, through and through. Irony is apart from our principles and ideals me and my friends have nothing in common :P Starting from our fav movie to our ambitions.
P.S-Most pathetic is that not even one of them read books consistent enough for me to discuss view points on literature with them:P That's why I am eternally thankful to goodreads and all of you ;):D

Q7. Whats your weirdest fantasy? ]Except big tome sized ice cream cones that we already know of :) ]"
Assuming no innuendo intended..
Nothing uncommon among the reading community I guess-to have a big house full of my fav books and ice creams and chocolates and none to share all these with:P
Much more realistic one is to go on a tour by myself. Without any idea where I'm gonna land and whom I am going to meet. Like a mystery tour on a train reading my fav books<3

Well..I'm not good at this at all. Secondly even if Iwant to,it's too difficult to work this into my study life. So no crush on anyone in really life...end of story! ;P

Q9. Proudest moment of your life? Your most embarrassing memory?"
Proudest moment would be the time that I first got to know about my sinus problem. (Bad start-that's not it,proudest moment is the follow up)-Now I'm okay but when I found that for the first time I was a mess. Scared of hospitals and all kinds of worrying. Was really pathetic. Then two dats later I realized I didn't want to ne pitied. Since then whenever I had to visit a doctor or take a scan-did it with nonchalance. Personally that was the day I consciously made myself strong for anything bad that could ever happen. I know it's such a simple incident but I gathered my indomitable will to go for anything kinda attitude in that moment. So that'd be my proudest.
Embarrassed-so didn't wanna talk about this. Here it comes,anyway.
It was beginning of 12th grade. So my dad forbid me to use the library until my exams got over. Therefore I have this habit of going from class to class and ask ppl whether they had any good novels to read. Finished tenth grade also is same school so kinda knew almost everyone which gave no room for any kind of self consciousness. So immediately I went in to the adjoining class and asked (very loudly to get everyone's attention) about available books to read since I had a free hour on the same day (during which I had to write a test btw). Only after the class got too still did I realize that the teacher whose hour I had presumed to be free was very present sitting with a student on the last bench which I failed to notice all the while I was asking for books at the top of my voice. SCREWED-BIG TIME! Had to do extra tests as penalty during lunch break. It was very embarrassing.
Arpit wrote: "Q10. If you can make three changes in the world, what would they be?"1) Better administration
2) Emphasizing the importance of ethics
3) Empathizing with others emotions
Highly impossible to inculcate these in today's world but a girl can hope :D
Arpit wrote: "Q10. If you can make three changes in the world, what would they be?"Great question Arpit. Made me think alot before answering.
Arpit wrote: "Q11. A compliment people usually gives you?"That I'm polite with ppl and dedicated to my career.
Manasa wrote: "Q.12- How honest are you on a scale of 1-10?1 being I always always lie, and 10 being I swear on my favorite book I have never ever ever lied in this life or any other life :p"
Definitely not 10. But since I ended with my second name as Gandhi coincidentally (not after Mahatma Gandhi,other reasons) I had this personal resolution to not lie too much. So I'd say somewhere between 7-8.
Plus,I'm too much of a bad liar and ppl keep knowing that I lied. So basically no point in me doing it frequently.
Great Answers Sundara!!!

Thanks Arpit,Ann and Manasa:)Questioning over na? Do we have any volunteers for being our next prey?
Welcome Sundara!
Ah, if anyone has any more questions for Sundara, s/he can post them before tonight, and meanwhile Sundara, you can announce our next prey.
A friendly advice - 'Hope' is all you need.

What's Supergirl? The movie? Haven't watched it.
Why do you ask?
Why do you ask?
great answering Sundara :)Q13 What’s the one thing that people always misunderstand about you?
Q14 what's your daily routine (weekdays and weekends)?
Arpit wrote: "What's Supergirl? The movie? Haven't watched it.Why do you ask?"
I think she is talking about the youtube channel "supergirl" or maybe not....................
Arpit referenced Hope in the Hopes of nominating the next prey ;)
Gotcha Manasa. About the super girl refrence! I watched few episodes randomly..but didn't continue!@Arpit
Yeah. Caught your 'Hope' reference :P
@Gorab
Ty:D
A13). I don't like to embarass myself by showing ppl if I'm hurt or when I'm near tears. So when I get closed off and defensive,not many ppl get it. Hence,they misunderstand as rude/headstrong.
A14)Weekdays-Either full day class/sitting at home and learning. If the latter,I get sometime to chat online and read books.
Weekends-My happy time. Will visit my grandparents and aunts and uncles and friends now and then. Every Saturday I teach kids (part of that M.A.D - voluntary org which I told you about).
But considering that I don't have college and only coaching classes to attend to where we have classes with no fixed schedule, I hardly have a routine.
Thanks Pran:DOur next prey is........Hope/Aarti!
Great answering there S!!! Enjoyed it :)Welcome Aarti :) *evil grin*
@ManasaHehe. *big high five*
@Gorab
Thank you :D
Aarti must soon acknowledge this, so that we can start bombarding her with questions!!

Arpit- ahhh......I have watched a few of her videos, I too liked them
Lol. I have a story on that 'Hope' ref. Me and Aarti were buddy reading second chance summer last month. All of a sudden she changed her name to Hope. I of course, not knowing this, thought it was another person who has joined in on our thread. So I went all about-Welcome Hope; Are you enjoying ssc..bla bla. Only then Aarti told me about the name edit. I felt so stupid:-P
And that's why I immediately got your reference ;)

Messaged her but she seems busy with life. (Her last comment is almost a month back)

How I see myself-
Confident,loyal and happy-go-lucky kind. I guess...
Sometimes a softie too:P
A little too sensitive (which I am working on so badly)
I cannot stand harshness or any sort of rudeness,which is why I'm a little bit intimidated by starting on with internship.
I am good at reading ppl and I take much of my encouragement and workings of life through books. Most importantly I feel overwhelmed with my life (in a good way) and never failed to count my blessings and be grateful for that.
