My tryst with New year resolutions

Yours truly on New year's eve ~

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
Too much neglect and too much slacking off has gone on for far too long. Not a day longer!
2019 is going to be a selfish year. My time will be invested on improving and reinventing myself.
From tomorrow onwards..


  •  Early to bed & early to rise
  •  High-Intensity Interval Training at the Barbarian gym
  • No non-veg
  •  No alcohol
  •      & last but by no means the least..(wait for it..)
  • MEDI-effin'-TATION, to awaken my 'Kundalini' and all the 'Chakras', biatch \m/

(By the end of the first week..)





Inner voice : Why the hell are you not going to the gym man?

Yours Truly : Oh, I am afraid if I start working out, I'll be too sexy. That's why ;)

Inner voice : Hmm. I see. And what about "awakening the Kundalini" and all that jazz..

Yours Truly : Tried that but frankly speaking, it's not my cup of tea. With due respect, it's too time-taking, specially for "KarmaYogis" like me.



Inner voice : *cough cough* Yeah, right! And what about the no non-veg pledge? I thought you said you loved animals..

Yours Truly : And I stand by what I said 100%. Of course I leaouve animals. Some of them are so tasty.

Inner voice : Man..you're SO going to hell for putting it that way!
And..wait a minute..what's that Budweiser can doing in your hand, by the way?! Didn't you promise to stay off alcohol..

Yours Truly : Aw come on now..you gotta be kidding me!! Beer kab se alcohol me count hone lagi bhai?! :O (Since when does beer start being counted as alcohol?!) By that logic, quite a few medicines too contain alcohol. So? Ab Insaan dawa bhi na le?? (Is a man supposed to give up medicine too now??)

You know what mate..THAT is precisely why no one listens to your shit. If you had your way, everyone should just roll over and die already.
For your kind information dude, YOLO! Bole to 'Zindagi Milegi Na Dobaara'. So keep calm and keep kaam-se-kaam (mind your own business) okay?

Now Takhliya!
(Over & out!)

*************

And thus endeth yours truly's tryst with New year resolutions. Till the next time ;)

Resolutions and rules are always broken more or the less. I always believe in short term resolutions because we never know how life will take a turn in the latter part of the year.

Davayin bhi na le ab...hahaha! That reminded me of my engineering days (25 years ago..thats too much of my brain retaining it) when many of my friends who would study over night for weeks together (actually i'm at loss for "night marana") during exams and then would find it difficult to sleep at regular timing. Most of them would rush to pharmacy to buy "benadryl" a cough expectorant that had 10% of alcohol content and was readily available as OTC and was way cheaper than Beer!
Your post resonated to the highest frequency with me Sudeept!

Early to bed (t&c applies) - Only if there are no cricket, football, hockey, tennis etc etc etc matches on TV. You are just being a loyal fan.
No alcohol - Of course not! you are just taking medicines to keep yourself fit.
Workout - Oh yes, you are saving girls from committing suicide for a sexy man ;-)

Entertaining post, Sudeept. Sometimes technology ditches you at the last minute, so hope there is a lesson learned. Pardon me for the Gyan.

Wohi to!
In the immortal words of the legendary Sahir Ludhiyanvi..

Vo Afsaana Jise Anjaam Tak
Lana Na Ho Mumqin..
Use Ek Khoobsurat Mod De Kar
Chhodna Achha 😅

Glad you also feel the same 🙂
Hi5! \m/

Glad it took you down memory lanes. Loved the anecdote. Rest assured, as an engineer myself, and having 'been there and done that', I can totally see where you're coming from ("night maarna" & all), only difference being for us it used to be Corex instead of Benadryl. So much so that government had to brand it under narcotics to stop it from being sold over the counter 😂

Maan..Those were the days..! 😇

Glad you found it entertaining.
You're right, technology bewafa hai. Is par bilkul bhi bharosa karne wala nahi hai.
All my life, I've chased and boarded trains at the last minute with 100% success rate..But first time I try doing the same on a digital medium ie with the blog train and how spectacularly it backfires!!
Never gonna trust technology again, I swear! 😛
