I’ve barely gotten over the fact that I’ve received the Beautiful Blogger award when the Fabulous Bitch has gone on and drop kicked the Master of Karate & Friendship Award on me !
Here’s what she had to say about me :
Dazediva - Sporadic Reflections
I cannot omit her from my award list. She is my girls crush, my BBBFF (Best Bloggy Bitch Fab Friend), the girl I want to have tequila parties with while we are appreciating male gorgeousness. She is bitch fab, the diva and always a fab read!
Now how did she know I’ve been the Karate Kid in my youth & prime ?? Beware – I got some high kicks left in me ! To find out about some more Karate Kids go and visit The Fab Bitch.
The award comes with rules (which one doesn’t these days huh ?) and I have to list 6 things that ‘I Master’. Wow that’s a tough one - ‘cos I’m the Dazed Master of Divas ! So here goes …
1. Master of Capturing Digital Moments. My camera and I go hand in hand. I take lots of pictures. My friends and family reckon I’m obsessive. And yes I’ve mastered the art of being able to take a photograph when one least expects it. I love it ! Now I just need to buy a professional camera and the photos I take will be even more kick ass than they already are !
2. Master of Conversation. I can talk. Honestly I can. 
And I talk a lot of sense too. NC wonders where I have the stamina to keep talking. Regular every day chit chat bores me. I like learn when I converse with people. I tend to ask a lot of questions or go into detail about certain subjects. I enjoy engaging in conversation outside of my realm of knowledge so that I get to hear another perspective. Every now and then – in true Aquarian style, my mind will wander and my conversation waffles .. but the majority of the time, I make way too much sense. And now with social networks changing conversation – I’m totally on top of my game ! A toast to the Art of Conversation
4. Master of My Kitchen. That was when I had my own kitchen ! I’m living at home after about 8 years; and in the past 2 years I have not entered the family
The only thing I avoid in my kitchen is desserts – because I love them too much and I would be totally heart broken if a dessert I made didn’t come out correctly. So I rather savour the yummy tastes of professional desserts =) And also because I’ve realised that I lose my appetite once I cook – and who the hell wants to miss out on dessert.
5. Master of Getting Things Done. I still prefer the way the Fabulous Bitch has expressed herself on this .. some people may call it manipulation; I reckon its just the way one is able to delegate and get things done the right way at the right time. In my line of work – its a necessity ! And trust me – Bombay is not an easy place to try and get work sorted ! Every body is so laid back and blasé about schedules – deadlines don’t exactly exist for the majority of people; and it’s frustrating as hell to have to constantly go back and forth. At this stage in my life – I know who to call and when to call – and how to get my work done.
6. Master of (almost all) Trades. Ok so this one is a bit cocky and slightly up myself .. but … given the chance, I could master anything and everything I actually wanted to. I know my strengths and my weaknesses; I play up my strengths and work on bettering my weaknesses. I’ve put my hands in many a pie – and its resulted in me doing a bit of this and a bit of that .. after all variety is the spice of life :)
Drum Roll Please ….
- The Fabulous Bitch absolutely deserves this one right back at her. After all she’s my BBBFF ! Her Story for Every Picture series just bowl me over and leave me wondering where she finds the words to so aptly describe something most of can’t even begin to form into a sentence.
- Jollof who is The Crazy Nigerian …. He’s been a regular over at Sporadic Reflections from the time I first entered the neighbourhood. He’s funny; smart; a banker; and his blog always cracks me up. It’s a mesh of thoughts that captivate you and leave you wanting more.
- Fishy who believes there is Plenty More Fish Out of Water … if you don’t piss yourself laughing at his various escapades then you don’t have a sense of humour (at least not an English one). Yup he’s a fellow Englishman and I raise the flag in your honour !
- Bombchell better known as Atlanta’s Sexiest Geek has got the boom-boom-pow ! once you check out her swagger there’s no copying that now ! I guess all the Karate moves reminded of me of this sexy lady.
- Moxie who dishes out some fab relationship advice; tells you that’s why you’re single; throws dirt at ya and knows how to handle her business ! She’s articulate, and her words have the power of those karate brick chops ! Have you got Moxie baby ?
- And lastly I have to hand over the power punches to One Sassy Girl who is a Hot Piece of Sass !!! Need I say more ??

I hope you enjoy these Karate Experts as much as I do – and once you get to know them – you’ll understand why they are the best kinda friends to have around. They’re gonna save your ass one of these days ! hahaha
3. I have a super low boredom threshold .. hence like to learn about anything and everything. I need constant change. I don’t like routine. Maybe for a few things (never mess around with gym / yoga timings)– but generally I don’t routine. I love to learn – and took up languages (French, German, Arabic) as they came easily to me – next on the list is Spanish & Italian. When I entered the corporate world - I couldn’t handle a typical 9-5 job. I tried it and had to leave it. That’s how I got into event management. Every project is different. Perhaps this is also why I could never get a tattoo or pierce random body parts. It would be a fad for a bit and then I’d want to get rid of them. 
insomniac – which I’m not. I just think sleeping is a waste of time. If I sleep more than 5 hours – I get cranky as hell. I have never slept in the afternoon till date. My mom told me that as a baby – I would prefer to play in my crib than go to sleep. Having said that – I don’t like to sleep alone (who doesn’t) .. I find myself drifting off in to a deep slumber when there’s someone next to me who I can cuddle up to. My German Shepherd always jumped onto the bed and would cozy up to me – got some of my best sleep then ! At the moment I have neither a dog nor a boyfriend …. hmmm maybe that’s why sleep doesn’t seem to come easily. 
for about 2 months. We’re only 2 months into 2010 and I have 3534 photos already. Oh and did I mention that I have 288 albums up on FB ? Yeah my life is definitely digitally captured. I’ve got my photos sorted chronologically by the year and by date .. and it feels amazing to know that all I have to do is flip through those pics to see what I was up to at a particular time in my life. Sure I’ve pissed a few people off with my digital obsession – but it’s okay – at some point they’ve all come back to ask for certain photos; and have more often than not – used my photos for their profile pics on FB hehehe. Just today
