In My Perfect World

A lifesaver came in the form of a tag from Bohemian Rhapsody. Pretty simple one though. I am supposed to list out 10 things that I like, or maybe my favorite things. Not sure if it is supposed to include just material stuff, but I am going to mix it up anyway. These are a few things that would make a day into a near perfect one for me.

TV Shows - I don't think I need to mention music. Thats quite understood. So, jumping on to TV, I love watching the Food Network, especially "Rachel Ray". Its funny but my next two favorite shows are also food related. I like "Bizarre Foods" on the travel channel and I am also hooked on to "Hells Kitchen" on Fox network. You don't have to be a genius to figure out that I love food. Well, who doesn't? And that takes us to...

Food - yeah, I can eat Biryani every single day and I will NOT get sick of it. To be specific, I prefer lamb biryani. I have eaten them few days in a row. Maybe if I had easy access to them, I would have had it everyday.

Sleep - This is one of my favorite past times. I love to sleep when the sun comes up. I like to sleep long if I have a day off. The weird thing is, I don't really enjoy my day off, unless I am doing something. But to go to bed with the feeling that you have a day off tomorrow, wow, that's awesome.

A Coffee - Lying in bed when you wake up and thinking about a warm cup of coffee to get you going. That's good. What's better is actually having your first sip of the day. The best is when someone gets you your coffee and leaves it next to your bed as soon as you open your eyes.

Mail - I like it when I open my mailbox and find something with my name on it. I hardly receive any letters and what comes in the mail are usually bills and other junk. But if it has my name, it makes a difference. I hate opening an empty mail box.

The Net - How different would life be without internet? Just like snail mails, I expect at least some junk in my inbox. It could be some lousy joke or some forward. It doesn't matter. Junk is better than an empty inbox.

Friends - I love to spend nights yapping with friends. The topic or issue doesn't matter. It's the company that matters. We could go on and on. Since I don't get much of that here, chatting online with friends keeps me going.

Money - Each day when I get back from work, I like to keep a small portion of my earnings for the day in a separate place and I don't include that with my savings. I try not to think about it and maybe every few weeks or so, I add up that amount and yaaaaayyyyy... I have more money than I imagined. Simple pleasures.

Play Time - Boys will always love toys. In the middle of my busy schedule, I always find time to play with my toy train and maybe also strum a few chords on the guitar. It's just another form of release for me and also a way of relaxing.

Countdown - And finally, I wake up each day with the thought that I am one day closer to going back home for good. By the end of December, I would have been here for four years and I just cant wait to get back and get started on everything. The countdown widget on my desktop reminds me that as of today, I have approximately 145 days before I head back.

So now, the rule goes that I have to tag a few people in return. So I am going to tag a few who have not posted something in a while. Of course, everyone is welcome to do it. So here goes:

Sapna
Penny Lane
Athu
Pickles
