After our last post, we did play the game of Aditya's favorite singer Raffi taking a flight from Canada to come meet Aditya in the sunny California! Aditya was the host of a TV show on "Aditya TV" where I visited him as Raffi, and we had a half hour long interview session, including Q & A with Raffi's fans calling in!
As said in the last post, Aditya and I had already decided on a list of "personal" questions to ask. Before the show, I had researched the Internet for answers, found some interesting things about Raffi (e.g. Raffi cares a lot about the environment).... but then I did not find anything conclusive about certain other things like "what does Raffi drink in the morning":-)
In any case, during show-time, Aditya decided to ask a few different questions, and some from the same list. We had a gala time with me playing Raffi answering A's questions about Raffi's favorites. (I especially had fun saying things like Raffi's favorite shape is that of a phone).
A little later, we had people call in to our show, and ask questions about Raffi's "life" e.g. "when did you move to Canada". Aditya did extremely well to come up with the following totally original question: "what did you like to do when you were young" to which I (Raffi) came up with the answer- listening to others' music, and visiting the local aquarium to see "Baby Baluga"... which Aditya loved for an answer, of course!
Then on the last weekend we played a new game... although the concept was still the same. This time around, I played one of Aditya's ex-team-member-volunteers who visited him for a day. Aditya had to call me ahead of my trip, and ask me things like
1) what do I like for a snack,
2) what cold/hot drink do I like to drink
3) what do I want to do in California (e.g. check out the golden gate bridge) when I arrive
4) what movie do I want to watch with Aditya when I am with him
5) what kind of a restaurant do I want to go to for dinner
Then Aditya had to plan the day according to my answers. For example, he would receive me at the airport at 7 AM, and then knowing that I like to drink coffee and eat scrambled eggs for breakfast, he would take me to a place where we could eat/drink both!
Again, Aditya did very well with this game, although it took him some time to appreciate that he had to wait and find out these answers ahead of time so he could plan how he wanted to spend the day with his friend!
