About Me

Hi. I am Subhankar Mondal and at the moment I am in Kolkata (Calcutta), India, having returned (reluctantly, I would have to add-LOL- from Bangalore). I am 21 years of age (though everyone says that I look like a Standard x student!). I completed my graduation (BA- Journalism,English Literature,Psychology) in the summer of 2008 and am working as a football journalist and editor for Goal.com.I am sort of an introvert, pretty much withdrawn in myself, disinclined to show my innermost emotions to all, can suffer the most lethal of emotional wounds and not cry over them.The love of my life is FOOTBALL(SOCCER).....I know,I know,this does sound quite strange,an Indian declaring his love for football when the entire nation is steeped in cricket-craziness. But I have always loved football and it has been one huge source of inspiration in my life.I have always wanted to be a football journalist and have eventually become one after doing football writing for over a year now. I am now working as a football journalist and editor for Goal.com.I am also eager to learn Spanish so that I can understand my club and the Spanish culture better.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I would like to meet those persons who respect others and are considerate and moderate in their views. I like discussing on intellectual matters(especially football) and would love to make friends with people who really care what's going on in the world, people who want to make a genuine contribution to the betterment of the world.I am interested in meeting people from around the world so that I get to know other cultures and maybe even some foreign languages.
