Well, this certainly is a risky subject to talk 'bout openly as it could possibly be misused ! Still being a (so-called) adventurous person, let me just declare my latest addictions. Now latest doesn't mean it all happened overnight ! Plenty of disturbances and a certain period of time is required to hook me onto something, believe me !
i started online share trading bout one and a half year ago in August 2007 with Zero knowledge about stock market. As i need to engage and focus my mind constantly on one thing and the office work was not that thing at all, the experiment turned into habit in just 6 months and after one year and loss of about 100,000 Rupees, i got into the chase of getting back the money i had lost ! Fact is i m not much interested in making money from the beginning, its the unpredictable and occasionaly wild fluctuations in share prices that hooked me ! Never mind the losses, just think of the thrilling time i had in between typing letters or preparing useless reports or just sitting idly on your favourite chair in the same corner of the cubicle !
Now comes the next addiction which surely has done a lot of damage to my physical and mental health. You can guess this one easily after reading my another blog in which i have posted an update about attempts of quitting the stick. Smoking started as a time pass adventure when i was too free and bored in the evening as usual. One of my room-mates was smoking and i suddenly had a whim to try it, and as i was far from my dominating parents to think of consequences of such terribly bad act, i did it ! And trust me i felt really bad, very bad, i always hated the smell of smoke and the taste was also as bad. At that moment, i felt like this is not the thing for me. In the beginning, i started with just one cigarrette and that too only in the evening when i was too lonely and had no idea what to do at that time of the day as no known activity seemed to work right to unwind myself.
