Of laziness and a beautiful lady

I had thought that the frequency of updating this blog would increase with the ownership of a Galaxy Note but it had dwindled further as I have a single post this year. I admit, this can be partly attributed to my laziness. At the same time, I have read a single book this year. And, I haven't watched many movies. So, I am still wondering where I was spending my time all these days? Well, to partly answer that I have installed and uninstalled more that 200 + android apps and games on my mobile. And have been addicted to some of them namely Draw Something, Where's my water, Temple Run, Angry Birds (of course). And the rest of the time I have been watching serials and soaps on TV. Lets see if I can change anything to the existing routine and try to complete few of the resolutions that I have promised this year.

*********** Of a beautiful lady ***************
I was on my return flight from Bhuvaneswar to Chennai after attending a friend's wedding reception recently when I came across this beautiful lady in her early 20's (perhaps) just going to occupy the seat next to mine which was an aisle seat. She was accompanied by her sister ( perhaps) who had just married (again guessed from her makeup and the mehendi on her hands ).  She looked so simple and serene and I had just starting appreciating her beauty then something happened which changed everything.Can you guess? Yes, she opened her mouth and continuously started talking to her sister. It was loud and disturbing. I couldn't neither read nor sleep for they were talking endlessly for the whole 2 hours until the flight landed in Chennai. I quickly picked my baggage and ran from the place. My definition of beauty had changed. !!!

A long due post

3 months of 2012 have already passed in a jiffy. This is how things have been for the past 5 years. Perhaps, the right time has come to try and change the proceedings. I've not even made this year's resolutions.Anyway, its not very late to make some resolutions now. So here it goes:
1. Read some good books.
      a)I should read some autobiography
      b) classics? - Alexander Dumas / Dickens
      c) reread some good ones- To kill a mockingbird/ JRR Tolkien
2. Try to regain my stamina.
      a) Gym?
      b) jogging
      c) cricket/tt
      d) reduce tea/coffee intake
       e) eat simple home food whenever possible
3. Music -
      a) try learning the guitar again?
      b) explore some good world music
      c) try to record some songs when no ones around;-)
4. Visit at least 3 new places
    - visited Yelagirifor a team outing.
     - visited a place called Anugul in Orissa for a friend's wedding reception. 
   
5. Reduce expenses
      a) Watch less (junk) movies
      b) be careful with my mobile (no dropping in the water)
      c) regular servicing of my bike (improve mileage and maintenance cost)
      d) avoid eating out whenever possible
6. Work-
       a) avoid late night working
