26 and counting...!

Finally am 26, cant say was waiting for it, but some truths just cannot be avoided.

I am a NEET( Not in Education, Employment or Training), 5kgs overweight, slightly lower on the social circle side right now, but doing good on the love front. Neighbours think I am a dog-walker by proffession, Dad thinks going abroad on scholarship was a mistake, still living off of my parents, sister has suddenly started saying how 'many years' older I am to her, my apartment is not in sight, have not yet been able to buy my Macbook, running behind schedule, like Sissyphus, have fallen once, will however try again, will make it…pledging to keep quiet, silence, exercise, crunches for the abs, listen to people, remember, write more, work harder, will not cry at any cost, will read the Gita, take control of my life, thank for the little things that are almost permanent in life like my parents and my sister and the same way of baking cakes and celebrating birthday with Kheer. Will cultivate patience, remain cool and spend less time with boyfriend. Blog more regularly, every week maybe. Reconcile that 24 hours are really enough to do everything and still have the time to do the things that keep me alive-painting, singing, writing and dreaming sometimes. This is a phase, I know it feels really bad, but once I am out of it, I will be stronger, more able and convinced.

Love, Sex, photographs, little diary entries, reading and gulping up as much as I can about India, still excited, still a believer, crazy about Fab India, wont buy cheap imitations of Mango and Zara, sleep peacefully and become more disciplined.

All very nice and reasonable resolutions. Sometimes just going with the flow also helps. :)

Happy birthday again!
