We have a lot in common. I love Don Bosco too and subscribe to it. I used o read the The Catholic Digest when in school as the Nuns had the subscription. Very much like RD and just as interesting too. I love the smell of incense they burn in Church. My uncle who is a Priest used to bring some for me when I was a kid. School closing bell and Lunch bell is music to the ears to no? :p
Sterling Silver? Honored though I dont deserve the comparison! :) Thanks for taking the tag and making it such a wonderful read!

Snakes and ladders..thank god i was worried why no one was writing that!! ;-P

@silverine
Hey nice to share tastes with u...The fragrance of incense during Mass is simply invigorating and i feel that prayers go up with it..One of our profs who continued lecturing after the bell winded up with "For whom the bell tolls...it tolls for thee!".....now ive got yet another adjective to describe u..thanks for tagging me!
@mindcurry
Guess excess time is one of the luxuries of studenthood.Hope God wont be too harsh on me for all those idle hours...i'm mending my ways..:)
@mathew
Always loved the game though im positively scared of the reptiles..used to go down the long snake at 99 most of the time...I think sambharam is the best cooler in the world...thanks!
@deepthi

Snoozing 5 more mins wont hurt...
Haha...i wonder how many people's curses have fallen on me coz i snooze 20 times with a 5 more mins plea to the shrill alarm and end up waking everyone around me, except myself!
@jiby
LOL!...well i actually graduated from being a late riser(8:30am!when in school) to the early bird(5:45am,now)...guess that's the trouble...:)
