Got tagged by Diablo to list down five things people probably do not know about me:

  1. People think that I’m a spoilt only child of my parents, but I actually have three brothers, four sisters, one half sister, two nephews and a niece.
  2. Many of my family relatives do not know I exist.
  3. I don’t have a single illegal application installed on my computer or phone.
  4. I don’t know a single Arab person in Southampton.
  5. I read the local headlines of Omani newspapers on daily basis online.
I am tagging kishor, omanymous, and P4L.

Book Tagged

I’ve been booked by Amjad to do the following:

The task:

# Pick up the nearest book.
# Open to page 123.
# Locate the fifth sentence.
# Post the next three sentences on your blog and in so doing…
# Tag five people, and acknowledge who tagged you.

Loads of books are scattered all over me in my room, I’m currently reading three books these days, the most interesting I think is the one I picked, it is a novel called ‘PopCo’ by Scarlett Thomas, she is a new favourite author of mine, I’m going to blog about her when I finish reading PopCo. Here is the excerpt:

But try explaining that to a woman who thinks that all men are out for one thing and won’t respect you if you ‘give’ it to them. I wonder what Esther would say? Probably not that, at least. But I still won’t tell her.

Hmmm, that excerpt doesn’t tell much about the book, PopCo is a wicked book that combines Douglas Coupland with Dan Brown. Will tell you more about Scarlett later.

I am tagging MMK080, Amnaa, yousuf, Nightface, and Andy.
