First of all I'd like too wish all of you a belated Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Hope all you had a wonderful year and may the coming one be even better. So its that time of the year when everyone is busy celebrating or making plans as to where and how to celebrate, etc etc. If you plan it out properly you'll probably get a whole 10 days for your party ... 10 whole days with friends and family, spending time with them ... simply brilliant. The best thing I like about New Years Eve is remembering what all I did in the last year!
Another year come and gone what have I done, Accomplishments, Achievements?? None what so ever!!! Well ... a couple of significant things at least in my perspective, added a lot more memories that I can share with friends and laugh with them also made a few new friends too.
Last year was good ... actually it was really good, all my friends were here and we used to have a gala time almost daily. Actually early last year was when one of my best friend's plan for his Masters got finalized so our group decided to have a whole lot more fun and we sure as hell did. Trips and fundo things all thorough out the time he was there. The best trip was the one just before he left, one hell of a trip which we all enjoyed .. crazy wild what not ... ask anyone of us to describe it and we'll short of words. I took up Gym and dieting seriously and lost about 12kgs, also got a one pack. Made a few new friends at the work who are awesome people, hanging out with them feels just like the good old college days. Mind you some of them are senior people in the team not age wise but qualification wise but still good fun to hangout with. Oh and how can I forget the whole Bhool Bhulaiya incident at office, so utterly stupid ... an ideal scenario for a person to get slapped, but hopefully I've made a good friend with it :). All those days playing pool in IVY my goodness how much we used to spend there in terms of both time and money. Bike trip to pondicherry. TGIF!!! Ankit's birthday. Nisha and me running around for Divya's birthday suprise. IND vs AUS one day that got washed out. Oh how can I forget .. new best friend Ginger.
Yes a good year. One thing that I liked about myself was that I got used to doing stuff alone. Now now don't go getting ideas and all, by stuff I mean movies, restaurants, coffer shops, shopping etc. I got about doing these things alone, trust me it isn't easy sitting all alone in a restaurant or in a movie, especially if your like me who gets bored very easily. I think its a cool thing to be able to do the above mentioned things alone.
The other part of these festivities is that resolutions are made, I don't know how the whole thing about making resolutions got on to the new years thing. Hmmm well so what are my resolutions for this year. I know I wont be able to keep up with any that I make.
Lets see 6-pack is definitely on the agenda, I wont be fixing a time line to it cause that makes it all the more impossible to follow. The other thing that I really want/need to focus on is to get out of this bug of getting bored. It seems like almost every day that I get bored and then start bugging my friends online. That will again take time ... but this year its going to be one of the things I'm seriously going to work on. I hope I can get to achieving this, more so with the 6-pack than with the getting bore part. Also I'll be blogging more, that way I'll get bored less.
As one of my friend pointed out, one of the good things about blogging is that after sometime when you read your older post, it feels good. Thats the reason I thought I'd write this post .. sort of like a diary I guess. God I never thought I'd maintain one. I guess there is a first time for everything in life :).
Btw I spent New Years Eve with my folks bought a bottle of wine for them, and for myself I watched four movies back to back and wrote this post. hmm not that great huh!! I know kind of pathetic but something is better than nothing :).
Anyways to all of you still reading this post CHEERS yaar and have a blast of year this time and everytime :).
