It doesn't require much of contemplation from my side to figure out what my passion is, and that is exactly why it is my passion. i am passionate about three things;
a) ACTING. this is the one my friends are familiar with. with all due respect to all the other art forms, i personally think acting is the toughest of all{ atleast in comparison to the ones i have tried}......maybe thats why i am in love with it. i not only love to act but to observe others act{not mimic but seriously act]as well . my first ever ambition in life { first one because i too like others have changed a dozen of them with every passing day, read assignment/test} was to become an actor, a film actor. after being fed up of picturing myself as a doctor, a scientist, an air-hostess, an entrepreneur and an engineer, am back to square one.
i do campus theatre along with my journalism course in DU. it is a real struggle to manage them together, to explain to my friends that i have to, have to go for practice when they insist on spending time together, to live with the fact that college life for me can't be anything more than academics and theatre practice, to face objections from my father every day,every moment, and to still continue to move on. i guess this is the least i could do to live my passion, yes,my passion, for what else can i fight so much?
b)CREATING THINGS AND IMAGES. this one's my newly discovered passion. i have always loved to create/make things. i have always created images in my mind consciously and made my imaginations run like wild horses to create some more.little did i know that a habit of mine will transform into a passion.it can be anything ,a scene for a play, a design, a simple sketch, a poem, a dish, a video, a photograph, just anything. the satisfaction one gets after creating something is just so......satisfying.
c}PERFECTON: i strive to become a perfectionist. i donot settle for things easily. since childhood i have had this 'keeda' to do anything and everything with perfection, no matter how long it may take to complete the task. it took me a lot more than to just do the stuff on my own( because no idiot would follow such rigid instructions from someone who's just giving rigid instructions}, i had to organise myself to a great extent. i may appear to be like an 80 year old, but cant help it. i can say it is my passion because , for this,i dont even mind to appear like an 80 year old.

acting and creating things and images is good but being a perfectionist would fall under character trait.
i know sir. i thought a lot before mentioning this. but somehow i felt it should fall under my passions. and i believe passions help construct character traits. for example,if i am passionate about helping stray dogs, that implies i am compassionate, which is again a character trait.
