*Are you happy with the way things are here?*
Yes, I think this is an excellent forum.
*What was the inspiration for your LitNet username?*
It's a long and silly story. After reading Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, I fell in love with Severus Snape and shortly after that my son used to watch an anime series called Witch Hunter Robin. One of the characters, Amon (that's him in my avatar), reminded me of a young Severus Snape, and Amon is also an anagram of my name, so...

I've lived here in Chennai for the past 20 years or so. It's not ideal, but I've grown to love it, and will definitely miss it if I have to relocate.

English
*What would you regret not fully doing, being or having in your life?*
I regret not teaching, and wasting my Master's degree.
*If you were to be stuck at a particular time in your life, which one would you choose and why?*
Dunno, I'm not one for being stuck in the past, though I've had some good times. I'm enjoying the present and looking forward to the future.

Not yet.

Live one day at a time, I guess. I'm not so good at these sort of questions.
