Haha well it won't bother me if you continue thinking that!
I'm impressed. For all I knew you're pro!
You're welcome! That was the first plant ID suggestion I have ever given, I'm really glad you agree with it haha :)
AshleyT - thanks :D I just googled it - right on!
I'm about 95% sure on that ID :)
In India we find similar Indigofera genus flowers in herb plants
Structure typical of Fabaceae family and leafs too opposite type.
I hope this isn't an introduced 'weed' - it's quite pretty :)
