Who am I?

April 8, 2007 | Filed Under life's answers 

Today, I have found one of the answers I was seeking for a very long time. The question - Who am I?

I was seeing Lord of the rings for the very first time yesterday. I haven’t seen the movie or read the book before. I was surprised that how something so fantastic, could be so true. There are people around me who are fans of Tolkien. But none of them have pressed me hard enough to read his books. But it has ultimately happened and I will soon be off to buy the Hobbit. By the way the answer to that questions was - I think I am a hobbit.

Please see this page and then look at my answers below and then you decide. Though I don’t really care if you thin, I am not a Hobbit.

  some things can’t be changed

  not quite
• Long skillful fingers

• Tendency towards chubbiness
  yes yes
• Little or no facial hair

And this is so me….

Hobbits also remain youthful in spirits. They love jokes, play, parties, and especially eating. A normal hobbit day might include breakfast, second breakfast, elevensies, lunch, tea, dinner and supper. Hobbits eat a diet quite British in composition, but are especially addicted to mushrooms, and can be very greedy about sharing them. In other ways, hobbits tend to be quite generous, offering food or welcome to other hobbits.
