Describe yourself in one line.
Perpetually Confused. 😆
As an Indian woman, you've chosen "The Road Less Travelled", has this been a conscious decision or did it just happen?
It was a conscious effort - where did you get that, by the way - because I was always told what to do, how to behave, how to lead my life. When I became a young adult, I chose the route less travelled by girls from my community. But it still wasnt as wacky as some of my friends.
Looking back at your life thus far, any regrets? Anything you wish you had done differently? If yes, what?
Two regrets actually:
I regret that I was a victim of stereotyping. If you are brainy, you must be in the Science stream. 4 years of my life wasted because society saw Arts stream students as dumb and unruly.However, years later when I returned with a string of degrees after my name, I had the pleasure of telling my condescending Add Maths lecturer that whatever he taught me at school was of no use to me whatsoever in my professional life. I wish I had the guts to stand up to my father and insist that I dont want to be in the Science stream. But at 15 you don't have a choice in the matter.
I regret not staying back in England. England was my idea of intellectual heaven - arts, history, literature, music, political excitement, where you develop your intellectual abilities, where the papers do not treat you as fools, the land of wit and satire and of course, the birth place of my profession.
Any life altering moments that changed the whole course of your life and set you on the path you're on now?
Nothing really...but there is irony though. My maternal grandfather wanted my mother to go to Uni and pursue a degree. She was psyched by him and my periamma...however, she fell in love with my father and wanted to marry him. My grandfather was heartbroken but agreed to their wedding. Years later, I went to Uni and fulfilled his dream. My Periamma tells me till today that even though my mother did not fulfil my grandpa's dreams, I did. Hehehe.
Where do you see yourself in 10 years from now, 20 years from now and 30 years from now?
10 years from now - good question. well established in my field. An expert.
20 years from now - retired, doing the things I love, reading, writing, consulting, chilling with a glass of wine.
30 years from now - dead? 😆

Why are carrots not called oranges, as they are more orange than oranges?
