Hobbies

  • Playing snooker/football and swimming
    I have been a good defender in football and an average swimmer. But they say they are scared of betting me in snooker, yeah something i can get hold of, pretty well.
  • Social Work
    Worked with local MP back in India for the improvement of urbanisation project in a small thriving town of Uppala kerala, recycling of rubbish from urban households and community meeting arrangements. Member of Staffordshire University PG group with a work involvement of business development of small scale businesses and giving ideas to business owners.
  • Gym routine
    Rated as highest scored athlete in East ham leisure centre for summer season of 2013 for Cardiovascular Treadmill run non stop 50 mins on 8miles/hour, burning 1830 calories. I still remember a lady shouting from the audience "I love you" Ah! I know what you're thinking! Okay i still got a picture, not hers but the treadmill meter's ;)
  • Web savvy
    Browsing and surfing is something i get lost into. Discover new things and learn, get informations. I do a lot of chatting occasionally too. The greatest accomplishment i would say is sold my friends old car in auction on ebay store for way higher than its market value.
