“We only become what we are by the radical and deep-seated refusal of that which others have made of us.” Jean Paul Sartre

3. What would you love to eat on a vacation?
Anything and everything of the local cuisine.

Sun, sand and sea… Maldives is a fantasy 🙂

5. What makes you happy?
The world which exists in my mind.

6. What figures first on your to-do list?

7. Name your favourite book.

9. Which do you prefer for company-children or pets?
None, and if I have to choose then pets, specifically cats.

10. Do you like poetry?
I didn’t before, but recently discovered a fondness for it, both reading and writing.

11. Which is the biggest obstacle you have faced in your life?
Gender stereotypes.

Well, I have a few people to nominate for this award. However, I am loathed to lay down the ‘rules’ to them. I reckon I’ve broken a few of the ‘rules’ myself, so no judgment here. Now I will merely list the ‘usual’ modus operandi:

1. Link and thank the person who nominated you

2. Answer the questions asked of you

3. Pick a few bloggers with less than 200 followers to nominate

4. Ask them a few questions

5. Let them know by commenting on one of their posts

Here are my nominees:

The Dark Night Chronicles

So here are my five questions for the beautiful nominees above:
