The LIST

Birthdays are special for me.Not only mine ;) I mean especially mine but that doesn't make me selfish right?
Every time when it is a birthday of my family members or the extended family or my friends I just love to wish them and let them know how happy I am for their presence in my life!! Planning for a party or getting the cake or doing some thing festive for them gives me a sense of purpose to make the day extra special for them.

Last year when i turned 25, it made me feel like as if i finally entered the grown up world but now when the year passed by and I turned into 26 all I can say is I feel that panic of how days are going by unnoticed and in turn making me older everyday.......It reminds me of that episode in F.R.I.E.N.D.S where they all turn 30 and how Joey cries "Why GOD!! Why are you doing this to us". Hence instead of just letting this year without achieving nothing(Oh! Don't forget those few extra kilos), I decided to prepare a TO-DO list for this year....

I am actually habituated to making lists and not following them...but right now i decided it would be better for me to add this point of acting on my resolutions to my LIST.

  1. Reduce Caffeine intake.Have coffee daily in the tea cup not the coffee mug!!
  2. Try not to miss the beautiful Sunrise once in a week.
