Things to do before I turn 25
This article is from 2011. Opinions may have changed.
- Start reading books again.
- See the world, what lies beyond South India. Live for sometime on the other side.
- I always think inside my mind continuously. If you think I am silent, you assumed wrong. I am talking to myself. I really hope to change it.
- I turn into a wild party animal when I am alone. Where is the heck is that beast when I need it at real parties?
- Grab a guitar, preferably nylon strings. Learn it during spare time.
- Get a smartphone, just so that I can read e-books for free. Which in a way aids Resolution #1
- Stop controlling my life, and let go for a change. Say yes to everything (yea, as in “Yes Man” the movie)
- And that brings us to…. stop watching so many movies! We all realise at the end of the year, there was just 2 movies worth remembering. Why bother?
- Sail to an island. Climb a mountain. Jump of a cliff.. I am done with roadtrips. I need the X-factor (read, excitement).
- When I was at school, I never judged people (Silly, innocent me). Then, I realized people do that all the time. Find more friends who don’t judge me. Then I could be back on my don’t-give-a-f attitude.
- The problem with Cable TVs is that I keep channel surfing, even after midnight; in the lame hope, that there is something better than “sleeping” on the next channel. Should learn to turn it off.
- It took me forever to realize what an amazing people my family had been. All these years, I was unhappy about a not-so-happening childhood, when actually they were trying to give me a normal childhood, away from their worries. I promise to give back.
- Meet someone special, who could think on their own, and also who don’t -giva-a-f to go places on their own.
- Inspire someone, probably a younger someone. Help them out find their destiny.
- And give and share unconditionally… as if I got millions to spend.
