High Five! High Five!

I have won a lot of things through the years but never in my life have I won a quiz contest...yes and that includes, the ones meant for 5 year old kids. So when I found that I had won last week's "Thursday afternoon books quiz – 33", I was understandably ecstatic. "Thursday afternoon books quiz" is a book quiz on Livemint that happens... as the name suggests, every Thursday. The immensely "googleable" questions are a mix of pretty straightforward and difficult. I have been trying to crack the 5 question quiz from time immemorial with no success. Last week's questions were no different and I spend a good part of a hour to search for the answers. The key was not just to answer the 5 questions but to be amongst the first 3 to do so.

I sent in the answers and forgot all about it till I indulged in some ego surfing on Google today. My name popped up on the 67543rd page of Google and I almost shouted out in glee. I had not only cracked it but was amongst the first 3 to do so. I would be getting an Indiaplaza gift coupon which I believe Indiaplaza would withhold, given my tirades against them in a feedback that I sent them last year.

So here I am sitting proud and catching hold of every 5 year old and bragging about it. Sweets have been distributed and the bouquets have started arriving. So more power to me till my next conquest!
