been a long time since I wrote anything other than emails so i am taking this short break ..
Said good bye to 2010 with a really lousy Kamal Hassan starrer Tamil movie, and started the year with some new year resolutions
Quality Reading - I realized I was spending more time reading junk like Bangalore Mirror or Bangalore times. What is the use of reading about some female actor who is least interested in me but still manages to draw my attention by giving the best possible horny expression. Male Actors are no less these days, apart from showing off their bums god knows what is up with hair styles ? what do they use ? Gel or Tar ? All spiked, the sideburns are extra sharp..Well the mind has got to be sharp the sideburns don't matter but its a different issue that neither my sideburn nor my brain is sharp :-(
Vacations - Been a year since I have had a good vacation time. Also need to have more picnics, it is time i get into my shorts, wear my shikari shambu cap and have some fun. I need to live my life and not just be alive.
Career - A rocking chair keeps moving but does not take you anywhere, i have a feeling that i am now in a rocking chair. What am i doing about it? i have got some plans and i better act on it before it is too late. (planning your career does not mean job change..). Also better to not get wooed by fancy job titles. I guess managers in a IT company are nothing more than a Head clerk in traditional companies. Organizations give you a ego massage by calling you Managers, then Senior Manager then Group manager ..and when all adjectives are done with, start a new series, director, senior director, etc etc. Got to be careful with these titles !
Learn to play Keyboard - Will either ask Rahul's instructor to help me out or might just learn on my own with Rahul's help. With the keyboard already at home I got to make the best use of it
Watch selective movies only - Tees Maar Khan was yuck and so were Akshay's other movies last year! On a side note, forget the politicians even bollywood movies have started ignoring the common man, we have had movies on Quadriplegia, Progeria, Autism, Dyslexia, Leukemia, HIV, Alzheimer, Amnesia and what not. Can someone make a movie on common man's common cold ? Well you can't pass it off as an easy subject, don't forget that common cold has no cure and so are the worries of a common man
Exercise regularly: I have had this resolution every single year but kuch kiya nahin...may be this year for sure. Another decade to go and I will be in my 40s. I surely don't wish to have too many defective organs in my body at that point in time and it won't be any fun driving a BMW (wish!) if your back hurts. Moreover I have to stop blaming the fabric or the brand for not being able to get into a 32 inch trouser and breasts don't look good on men.
and finally got to do things on time and not like this post, a post on new year resolutions after 22 days into the new year. Next time on time...pakka teri kasam
