A Tag, New or Old.

I really don't know if this is a new tag or an old one. I don't even remember if someone really tagged me with this topic to write on. But since I can't think of anything worthwhile to write about, I am going to do this one. Here it goes....

20 years ago I......
1. was a chubby little kid who peed on the sofa more often than I drank milk from the feeding bottle.
2. went to my first school and started my first interactions with people outside my parents.

10 years ago I......
1. was busy with my coin collection and stamp collection and wanted radium stars on the ceiling of my bedroom
2. got my first real infatuation (stress on the adjective "real") and started doing combined studies just for the heck of it (She was the first ranker in class) .
3. got my first bicycle and loved the evening rides on it.
4. was a die hard fan of cricket and loved the after school games of cricket.

5 years ago I......
1. was enjoying my early days at college and loved life away from home..in a remote village in Rajasthan.
2. was quite sure I had committed the usual blunder of joining the rat race for an engineering degree
3. had football (Manchester United to be specific) as my first priority in life and loved the psychic fan in me.
4. just got to know that relationships are not made, they just happen.

3 years ago I......
1. loved the long nights alone in my hostel room and the endless sessions(all inclusive, games and more)
2. was confused about what I wanted to do with my life

1 year ago I......
1. was busy filing my first tax returns and fabricating all proof documents.
2. was already fed up with my first job and was in a clearly confused state as to what I wanted in my career next.
3. was trying hard for a B School admit which never happened.
4. was already ruing the fact that I had to work in the software industry.

So far this year I......
1. have been doing nothing worthwhile.
2. have got a good amount of bad news to worry about.
3. have followed the routine of eating, sleeping, eating again, sleeping again, eating yet again....think you get the broad idea here...
4. have seen a few movies in the theatre after a long hiatus on the cinema front.

Yesterday I......
1. had a really tough time with the procedures one has to follow in this country after a minor road bump.
2. did not touch my bed time book for the first time in many days.
3. was on the phone for longer hours than usual.

Today I...
1. thought hard on what I should write on my blog.
2. have taken half a day off from work.
3. lunched twice (once at home, once out on a treat)

Next year I......
1. will definitely know what I want in life
2. will watch movies like crazy and catch up on many bygone box office hits.
3. will spend my money on a new car.

P.S : Comments like,

From tomorrow you......
1. will stop writing crap like this and bore the shit out of people

Just read this post da.. Nice! I also have a similar habit (thinking about the past life)

Unknown said...

@Eashwar: Thinking about the past sometimes gives me peace. Don't know why. May be that's because life in today's scheme of things is just too fast and we are frantically looking for peace. In vain.
