The official meaning of hydrophile: a molecule or other molecular entity that is attracted to water molecules and tends to be dissolved by water. I shall conveniently remove the later half and keep the first half referring to the newer love of Samyak.
He loves to drain water into multiple vessels / containers (some being glass, mugs, pressure cookers, water bottle of his brother et al). The source could be the drinking water container, taps (from anywhere, yes from anywhere), any basin, bathroom buckets; yes, from ajywhere.
This activity is extended to all containers of the washroom every time he goes for a leak. Mind you, I am not including the patting or wading of water during his bath. The containers can't just sit and contain water; water is shifted (read poured) to another container and sometimes to a series of containers depending on the degree of freedom in his mind, point of attention of his mother and lack of other attention diverting elements in the environment. Needless to say, some leaks in the pourings and transfers ensure creation of mini to decently distinct water puddles across the area. I cannot write floor areas because puddles can be formed on newspapers, tables, bags, magazines, books, bed et al.
If the activities till now seem silly, here's more: Ferraris, bikes, planes, pencil stubs, pen caps also get a dash of wash amidst some of the water transfers.
I must confess, I racked through Biology for getting the appropriate word and found this one closest.

Cyber damage
I have this pair of wireless mouse and keyboard for my personal
computer. Though these items are being mentioned in Samyak's blog, the main
reason to go wireless is however Sambhab. I had to get them to do away with the
constant engagement that he used to indulge himself in after coming from school
much to the displeasure of his mom who would insist him on taking some rest.
The removal of the small bluetooth chip does all the magic for his mother;
though, that the reason for some snubs from Sambhab some days. I am made the
villian by each of them; thats however a different story altogether.
These object are some of the many which attract Samyak. of
particular interest is the small mouse which almost resembles a mouse (but has
he seen a real one?). He tried pulling out the left press of the mouse. It took
my wife and myself atleast 4 scores of trials and manual & gentle
reverse-yet-carefull presses to make it somehow workable.
Infact this blog is with the help of that slightly damaged mouse
only.
