Alexis: Thanks for the Tag, really enjoyed it. You must see the first movie in my list, saw it again for the nth time y'day on Star Movies,so romantic. Alan Alda was my fav too!!!! And 'hotlips' too :)) In fact I loved all the characters.Caroline in the City is what makes me ROFLAO. I am addicted to it. Lawrence Durrel is not my kind of author :) And Salad without dressing??? awwwww so sad :( That's the best part :)

Mind Curry: "Quadruplets"??? The very thought of having one baby scares the thought of marriage out of me LOL
Looking forward to your tag :)

Quills: Maybe we are related through a series of accidents LOL Awaiting your tag eagerly :)

Dhanush: I studied in Bangalore from day one but have several cousin sisters who have passed out from St Mary's High School :)) I am gonna enquire about you LOL

venus said...

marketing comm is an interesting job, if I imagine what job i'd like, i can think of this one including others :)

vegetable slicing and dicing and batter stirring, dish washing, coffee/tea making, I think, none of any indians can get away from this jobs, at one or the other point in life, he/she would have gone thru this!

aks said...

hey sil.....cake batter stirrer... i too have xperienced that...loved the job cause i got some batter at the end 4 myself...yummy it was....

Shawshank Redemption....gr8 choice

and guess first time I am reading Think Pad...was a PoomanamHolic till now i guess....

mathew said...

Changancherry!! :) ha..was it intution..i always thought u were someone from Ktm!!

Shawshank...i dont believe in oscars once i came to know that it dint win any!!!

silverine said...

Alexis: May be I might know you to :)

Venus: Marcomm is really interesting but is a small part of communications. I think all of us would rate the chores around the house as our first jobs :)

Aks: Welcome here buddy!!! I love the leftover batter too :) Shawshank Redemption was superlative!!!

Mathew: lol I guess from my Kerala based posts it is obvious that I am from Pala/Changanacherry :)) And SR not getting Oscars is unbelievable.
