| Reading - I love reading. Although I read mainly fiction
but am not averse to reading a good non fiction book too. Some of the
books/magazines I recommend are:
| The Life of Pi by Yann Martel: I found the book to be
very entertaining mainly because of the theme. |
| Lee Iacocca - An Autobiography : A must read for anyone
interested in cars, marketing or business. Lee Iacocca gives a
candid description of his life and how he, after being unfairly
thrown out of Ford motor company, turned around Chrysler from near
bankruptcy and gave Ford a run for their money. |
| Snapshots from Hell - The making of an MBA by Peter
Robinson : Robinson describes his stint at the Stanford B-school,
the trials and tribulations, the joys and jubilations of being an
MBA. |
| God of Small Things by Arundati Roy : One thing I really
liked about this book is the almost poetic prose and the way she has
invented a new way of writing. To quote an example - " Amma told him
to stopit so he stopitted." |
| The Magic of Thinking Big by David J Schultz: I believe
in always thinking positive (at least trying to) and hence found the
arguments given in this book very refreshing. |
| And many more.......... |
| Some of my other fav writers are Jeffrey Archer, PG Wodehouse
and J.K. Rowling. |
|
| Reiki - I'm a Reiki practitioner and have completed till
the III-A degree. I have found the experience very enriching and
recommend reiki to all. For a brief on what Reiki is all about you can
visit the following site.
|
| Music - I enjoy listening to music. As for my kind of
music,my choice ranges from Old Hindi songs to AR Rehman, from
Jagjit Singh to Metallica ..... Quite a handful, you might say but
that's just me. My all time fav artists are (in no particular order):
| Jagjit Singh |
| Metallica |
| Mukesh |
| Bryan Adams |
|
| Movies - I enjoy watching movies in my free time.
Although I enjoy English movies more than Bollywood, it is heartening
to note that some movies made in Bollywood up late have been really
good and have been truly 'hat ke'. The following are some movies that
I have really enjoyed watching (in no particular order)
| Dil Chahta Hai. |
| Anger Management. |
| Monsters Inc. |
| Half Ticket. |
| Castaway. |
| The Matrix. |
| and many more :-) |
|
| Guitar - I am currently thinking of learning how
to play the Spanish guitar. I haven't bought the guitar or started
with the lessons so I don't really know if this develops into a full
fledged hobby or not.
