Actually my interest keeps varying with days :-) IIT we used to just do lookhagiri, go regularly
for first day movie shows (including Mithun movies), visit interesting places etc. Below are some
things by which I like to pass time...
-
Hiking
It all started when Gore and co did the Yosemite hike. Since then I became a hiking fan. I am not a big
stud :-) ,just a chottu mottu hiker :-) The most difficult hike I have done is the half-dome at Yosemite.
It is interesting that people do small hikes first and then do the major ones. For me I did yosemite
first and then do the ones nearby here (those are easier, actually :-)) By the way, Northwest has
infinite hiking trails. U can take a look at the hikes here.
-
Sketching
I used to sketch when I was young. Last time I remember drawing was for the "pookkalam" at school
for my class - we got first in school two times :-) In CMS college I never had time (except the
biology sketches :-)) and in IIT we just did lukhagiri :-) In UW I never had real free time :-(
And then, here suddenly I have so much free time, so I thought I will give it a try again. U can
see my sketches here... Again I do it for pure fun.
-
Music
Oh yes, I love music. I listen to music almost all time. I have a pretty nice cd and tape collection.
I never used to listen to English music before I came to IIT, by the way :-) I started listening
to Hindi only while at CMS college :-) I could recite from heart all the countdowns every week in Bombay
:-) Here I miss Hindi, Mallu and Tam songs, but now I listen to English stuff :-)
Someday I hope I will learn to read and play sheet music :-)
-
Moviz
In Kerala I was not so movie fan. So, so maybe. It transitioned in CMS college, where I started
on mallu and tam moviz. In IIT, I used to see almost all Hindi movies released :-) at theater.
Here I am ready for any English movie u wanna see :-) Here are some recent moviz I saw.
-
Poems
Mallu poems are the best according to me. Check out the poems page...
-
Disney
I like to sketch and I admire Disney. Amazing cartoons. My favorite is Beauty and the Beast. Take a
look at my sketches to see my special section on Beauty and Beast -not bad eh :-) ?
-
Maths
I used to like Maths from childhood. I am not a maths stud, but I take general Maths courses
whenever I can. I like simple puzzles...
-
Reading
I am very poor with reading habit :-) I fall asleep usually. IITians are very good readers, not me.
It takes so much time and effort for me to finish a book.Here are the only few books I ever read in
life. I like comics still :-) Maybe I should read more...
