A personal introduction in 3rd person?
Back in '86
Impossible! So here’s me talking. There’s little to talk about teen age: while others were boasting scholarships & sports medals – I was an out-standing student (pun intended), having all the fun I could. 6 months into engineering, I challenged myself to stand-out in a different sense. I topped every exam since, and continued this performance at L&T’s boot-camp – memoirs that make loved ones proud. I chose to stay out of the CAT-rat-race and instead focused on building a strong profile, while working hard for my masters. All this wouldn’t have been possible without those who believed in me & hung around in tough times. Marriage is the next big thing, but past experience has emboldened me to face it & believe that, like all scary moments, it will eventually pass

My Parents
I am simple, honest, organized and high (pl read on) on values & principles. I wear clothes that make me feel good, but you’re free to call it out-moded. I am a total foodie who loves experimenting with places & cuisines, of course in the company of family & friends. I dislike closed minds and discourteous persons; I consider sanity of thought paramount. I have great admiration for all that people around have done for me – especially my parents for gifting a comfortable life. I love traveling & have been fortunate to see a jillion places. I prefer walking over driving (at least in Mumbai). In my free-time, I blog, code & watch movies. Prefer reading blogs & articles over books. I’ve learned Salsa, practiced Yoga, and can’t wait to try photography.
Thanks for visiting and keep in touch.
Wishing the best for you, Yours sincerely,
Prasad
