Brilliant flashes of inspiration at 22.55 ten days away from D submission. Some things that I realised about me, myself and Aarti (List 1):
1) I can hear better with my left ear.
2) I can hear better than I can see (and that doesn't bode well for my sight).
3) All my fingernails have perfect half-moons.
4) I wore boys' vests till I was 14.... no, I wasn't a late bloomer, some weird school rules.
5) I never had a girl by the same name as me in my class till post-grad.
6) I have no favourite colour.
7) My science teacher of 3 years was called Arti (It must have been funny for her saying ' Aarti, are you paying attention', or 'Aarti, leave the class' - which she never had to, btw).
8) I have never officially studied my mother tongue Marathi.
9) I can't say 64 and 67 in Marathi without causing the listener to break into giggles- some weird tongue twister for me ('chau-sastha' and 'sadu-sashtha' ?)
10) I have never used mascara or worn a short skirt (and there goes my dream of finding a hunk)
11) I am in danger of being overshot by a couple of inches by my 11 year old cousin (come on, who knew she would shoot up like Jack's beanstalk?)
12) My vocabulary is in danger. I think in academic verbs 'Kaumudi opines that my dress sense should be more modern, whereas Urja posits a change in hairstyle would be preferable'. Maybe I should even start using the Harvard referencing system - Pande, A., 2005. Identity[online] In: Trivial Pursuits. Blogger. Available at http://sharelifenow.blogspot.com.
13) Reem and Vaibhav haven't yet given me the photographs of fireworks that I was waiting to post here. Of course that has nothing to do with this list.
14) I didn't want to stop at an unlucky number. 14 is also my birthdate, is also Valentine's day date, is also Children's Day date,.........

You know, while I was smiling all the time when reading this post, it was the comments that made me laugh out loud. Those guys should pay you for free advertising!
I, too, wore boys' vests till I was 15 and though I was, in fact, a late bloomer, I blame the weird school rules. I had to wear bloomers as well (nothing to do whatsoever with the late-blooming) and had to hitch up the hemline and lower the neckline of the school uniform so that the prefects could discharge their holy duty of checking if everyone complied with the weird but sacred school rules. Didn’t you want to hear something weird yesterday?
And no, you don’t need mascara to land a hunk.
Yes, a short skirt might help. :P
No, I am not ‘positing’ anything.
Yes, your hairdo has lots of scope for improvement :D
Yes, my vocab officially sucks.
14th is my b'date too ;)
"10) I have never used mascara or worn a short skirt (and there goes my dream of finding a hunk)"... Are you DUMB or ARE you dumb?
13 is a prime number. And prime nos are very lucky.
Seems like you were extremely bored.
