7 Things to Do Before I Die: I have a million things to do before I die. :)

1. Sky diving (Rappelling, Bunjee jumping and white water rafting have been done! yayy!)
2. Learn to swim (My Dad tried to teach me when I was 6. I didn't learn because of a stupid dream. I'm 'still' learning to swim.)
3. Learn a self defense technique (like Karate)
4. Make my own soaps and body lotions for myself (all natural, organic with no synthetic chemicals!)
5. Go on a long trip on my own (Just me and my backpack! I love travelling with people, sometimes I just want to do some trips like this on my own.... say, a journey of self discovery?)
6. Visit a long list of places (Australia, Srilanka, Thailand, South Africa, Andaman and Nicobar and many other places)
7. Stay in a tribal reserve area for a few days and learn about the way they live (needing so less and living harmoniously)

7 Things I Cannot Do (or things I do NOT enjoy doing):

1. Start something and finish it right away. (I always always stop in the middle, very rarely coming back and finishing what I started. Bad, Bad habit!)
2. Gossiping (Not me!)
3. Calculating one's worth based on monetary things
4. Sleeping during the day (unless I'm not well)
5. Deep frying food
6. Cooking in bulk once and eating that everyday of the following week (Argh! No, Moi wants fresh food and in variety!)
7. Big Parties (Dont even think of inviting me if it's a booze party, please!)
