The Weekend To-do list...

Yesterday night was chatting with an old college friend, both of us bemoaning the fact that life has become sooo complacent after we finished CA. Today afternoon, another friend told me he misses the mad multitasking that we used to do during our CA days..there is nothing left in life apart from office and home these days. So very true. Somehow the excitement, that drive to accomplish something seems to be missing from everybody's life. Veekay's life nd boring???? Yeah yeah, unbelievable but true, bcoz as GL often told me, mere saath hamesha kuch na kuch hota hi rehta tha!!! Time to bring back those old days?????

That hit me. Hard. Spent 2 hrs thinking as to what is holding me back from doing what i want. Nd the answer i got was, Nothing! Zilch! Heck, i am never gonna be 24 and Single again in my life, right???? Finally i decided to draw up 10 things i wanna do/get to spice up my weekend. Won't call it a resolution, just a to-do list:

1. Give GMAT exams. Have postponed it already twice due to lack of serious inclination to study again. Nd no plans to pursue MBA in the near future. But GMAT is something i wanna give, nd this time I WILL do it....

2. Involve myself more in adventure sports. Have already tried para-gliding & rappeling nd I am hooked. Now wanna try something different. This time, its definately gonna be scuba diving :)

3. Learn Salsa. Now thats something which i wanna do for a long time now, but frankly himmat nahi hoti, considering the fact that the best one can describe me is a mediocre dancer or rather a good dancer, if you ignore the fact that I do bangra steps on lavni song and vice versa.

4. Learn to drive. Now thats really a tall order, considering the fact that i am hopeless with directions. [Ahem, many people can vouch for my geographically-challenged brain, especially HT nd DC....Psst, remember the infamous drive to the CA institute nd my equally infamous dialogue...'Tujhe left lene bola tha, toh extreme left kyu le liya???' Barely managed to save my life from the murderous intentions that time. Heh heh]

5.Involve myself more in volunteering activities. The passion will never go down on this front and that is a vow to myself.

6.Learn to be more accident-free, especially while getting in and out of a BEST bus.

7 Take up the guitar classes again...have almost lost the touch to play. Last time i took out my guitar, it sounded really wierd!!!!

8 Learn to meet people socially without being nervous [unbelievable, but I am actually verrrry bad in making small talk!As I was talking to my cousin S today, I keep on looking at anywhere except that person's face. Ahem, hope it doesn't land me in a soup anyday!!!]

9.Get a state-of-the-art Home theatre system [caveat1...bonus mila toh!!! caveat2...job raha toh!!!]

10. Increase the no. of hrs to 48 per day during weekends so that I can still catch up on my sleep even after doing the above-mentioned things!!!
