` Sunday, January 15, 2006
I'm not sure if these can be accomplished but since given the privilege of f*rting around a bit back home until the travel bug beckons in end-January, there're always some things that never fail to conveniently slip my mind.

- I will start reading.
It must've been in a frenzy that I lugged home an additional 5 kilogrammes of books from Bangalore in November of last year and yet I haven't started reading a single one. Although they seem to make me look intellectual sitting on the half-collapsing shelves in the room.

- I will start spring-cleaning the sty that is my bedroom.
The Chinese New Year is approaching so darn early this year that the only form of clearance I've done to date is to sneak out with my sister an entire desktop box of old clothes for donation to the Salvation Army. I was so traumatised by that incident that I have yet to start the next round of filtering through countless bills, account statements and what-nots. I dread that feeling so bad it hurts. Then, I just hide under my blanket, fall asleep and forget I ever thought about being a responsible adult.

- I will stop stepping into Zara until my credit card bills are rid of countless Zara-related debits.
I swear that store has potent fiscal pulling power over personal finances beyond my weak self-control.

- I will eat more healthily and stop catching countless colds, flus and what-nots.
The Panadol company must really thank me for my undying support if this goes on.

- I will stop gorging myself silly on banana chips.
I can't believe how anyone could've created a more fantastically addictive snack than this. I'm down to my last precious pack. Can someone please bring some back if paying a visit to Thailand? I promise to pay good money!

I've Been..

Satisfying the wanderlust fascination.
Slacking.
Sleeping.
Shopping (wayyyyyyyyyyy too much).
Reading NW, Famous and 8 Days voraciously.
Chillin' with a pint of good beer or latte.
Indulging in purposeful conversation.
Otherwise, I'm happy for you to leave me alone.
