New year resolutions

to be slim, to walk every day, to read Management books on a daily basis, not eating junk food- the list is never ending. and the content of the list has remained almost the same since the past 16 years. if i want to pinpoint , the New year eve parties are responsible for most of the resolutions made the next day. the eve is full of excesses- either me or a friend is very badly drunk, we have consumed enormous quantity of food, danced wildly and badly on Hindi numbers which otherwise in sane frame of mind would have not related to... all put together next day I want to start afreash. its like a residue of puke stuck in my throat- making me feel empty, slightly vulgar- I can almost visualise a few extra lines on my face, a few more spots on my skin- the alcohol and the excess making their presence felt on my face, my mind, my spirit and me entering another year of my life.

the resloutions germinate usually by the evening of 1st Jan. the stale hang over is on its way out by then and I feel like turning over a new leaf and be the good girl I want to be.
