It is Tuesday evening and I am still my Client's office for discussing a project we intend to do for them. Everything was wrapped up by the afternoon, however, it is the documentation that is taking so long. While I wait, I thought I should share something with my virtual world.
Here are the top five things that people tell/ask me regarding my nativity. Listing them in reverse of order of hilarity:
No. 5
"You look like a south Indian." That is what soooo many people have told me.
No. 4
"You are Christian, G, is it not?" I wonder how people come to that conclusion just from a person's appearance. Blah!
N0. 3
This was my masseuse asked me while she massaged my back. "You are a Goan, are you not?"
No. 2
"Are you Madrasi?" That is the question that my Professor always flicked at me in spite of reminding him several times that I belong to the same region as he.
Now for the gem of all and this one is also my favourite.
No. 1
"G, you are Sri Lankan." That is not even a question but an affirmative statement from the same gentleman who asked me if I was Madrasi.
Ohh good. Everything wrapped up. It is time to leave. This meeting is over for good.
Leaving for Chennai tomorrow.
