Its that time of the year... for the check again... so here goes... the year of resolutions yet again.. some done... some ummm... ummmm... lets see...

1. BECOME INDEPENDENT; u have lived on ur father’s income a long time… time to get independent & possibly repay! (yeah baby... sooooo damn done... i am so freaky proud of this one!!! :D)

2. SAVE; when u make money… u must learn to save… u gotta get rid of ur education loan asap! (repaying my loan on MY OWN... sucha nice feeling to be able to take care of your own expenses 2:0)

3. SAY NO WHEN NEEDED; you will be working soon… u better know when to say no… else u will end up committing much more than u can deliver! (o hell yea... said no... & said it loud & clear... & thankful that i did not decide to go with the flow then... \m/ 3:0)

4. WATCH NEWS; ok… u don’t like aaj tak & zee news… u always have BBC & CNBC… & u have 2 televisions for God’s sake! (i obviously knew this was gonna be sucha a fail... buhuuu 3:1)

5. READ; daily dose of newspaper & a monthly dose of magazine & novels! (did read... still try to... somewhat done... 4:1)

6. BE DIPLOMATIC; agar ghee seedhi ungli se na niklay… toh ungli tedi karo… u gotta learn to work around things to get what u really want! (am i diplomatic or what... in even making my resolutions... can never go wrong with this one ;P 5:1)

7. AVOID FIGHTS; if it will turn into a fight… walk away from the topic... but if ur not allowed to walk away… ensure u make ur point clear enough to avoid the topic popping up again! (been there... done that... a 100%... 6:1)

8. DON’T FORGIVE; its really no use forgiving… u end up being taken for granted + ur not the forgive & forget type in any case… forgiveness is the key to YOUR unhappiness! (though i pretty much succeeded at it... i think i really wanna fail at it now... im gonna forgive u... cuz im gonna find another u ;P filhaal k liye... 7:1)

9. HONE YOUR CULLINERY SKILLS; u love eating… make something urself… whaz the use of watching m’chef if u never cook anything??? Cook at least once a month! (i did cook 12 times in this year; i believe... for whatever reason... i did... 8:1)

10. EAT EVERYTHING; ur fussy... thaz OK… but try everything… will help u develop taste! (started with drinking milk & figured out that i am lactose intolerant... but did start eating a few things i would never have had dreamed of eating last year, so 9:1)

11. SHOO AWAY HAIR & SKIN WOES; water is ur solution… its gotten much better since u got water into ur system… drink lozza water maaaaaaaaaaaaan! (o yea... im sucha water baby now... 10:1)

12. LIVE FOR SELF… u have lived the way others’ wanted, a long time… ur job must b ur turning point! (been up & down both... living for others is nice too... cuz you know they love you... but i did do a lotta things i wanted to do... 11:1)

& most importantly….

13. FIND TIME FOR SELF; do ur daily dose of su-do-ku, play ur freggin’ scrabble, blog when u feel like… ensure u do something u like EVERYDAY! (did i wanna do this... yea... did i do it... hell yea... what am i... A W E S O M E 12:1)
