About me

The Sanctimonious Fanatical Pickle goes by many different aliases, of which, the prominent ones are The Sanctimonious Fanatical Pickle and S. S is a twenty something person with questionable mental stability. She is currently pursuing an undergraduate degree in Economics and is looking into a possible second major or a minor in English Literature. Her interests expand over a wide range, from inspecting the daily interaction of the demand and supply in a market guided by the so-called Invisible Hand, she enjoys immersing herself in classical literature. When she is feeling particularly adventurous, she dabbles in modernist and post modernist literary texts, Jacobian plays, Shakespearean Sonnets, and occasionally frets over Wall Street, Main Street and Maynard (Keynes). Her interest in politics is centered around the South Asian context, which reflects in her overtly biased stand against the United States. She means no offense to any real or imaginary reader of this blog and acknowledges her fundamental rights to her opinions. She entertains debate, under the precondition that it is conducted in a civil and just manner.

When she isn't submerged in Academia, she enjoys football, which, she refuses to address as Soccer. She divides her time between Manchester United and Real Madrid, hates Cristiano Ronaldo and Liverpool, has inappropriate crushes on over aged ex-football players turned coaches. One day, if luck permits, she'd like to be BFFs with Gonzalo Higuian and Juan Mata, and play football with them on the beach. (Before you ask, yes she does know her offside rule, the advantages of 4-4-2 over 4-3-3, the concept of a Catanaccio and has a supremely vast knowledge about the game and its history than your average female football fan)

S has a knack for music - currently she is fascinated with Morrissey and Antonio Vivaldi. She plays the guitar and is crudely obnoxious about it at times. She writes too - or at least tries to but all that she can come up with her hyperbolic, pretentious mass of words. Useless words in plentiful numbers. The book(s) she'll read over and over again until she is 70 and blinded by cataract are The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and The Lord of the Rings, which, she'd have you know is NOT A TRILOGY.

S blogs elsewhere too. But that remains a source of mystery!
