New Year Resolution

These are not my new year resolutions. I am just compiling them now (either already started or will start them soon).


2012:

• "Thank you, God" is the everyday prayer.
• I started reading "மின்மினிகளால் ஒரு கடிதம்" but completed only "ஏழு தலைமுறைகள்" in year 2011. I really wanted to read more books and at least 6 is the target.
• I shouldn't buy any non-Tamil books this year.
• I am planning to start avoid attending weddings and birthday functions.
• There are lots of sermons available on the net. I'll listen to at least few of them or anything spiritual(either for or against), once in two weeks.
• Hoping to continue the digital diary.
• At least one email to you this year, of course, apart from the one you read now.
• One blog per month, no promise though!
• Reduce non-veg, coffee. No TV.
• It is been few years since I wanted to draw cartoon like pictures. It is a high priority one this year
• Though it frustrates at times, I will try to check Facebook between 15-30 mins per day, as almost all of my friends communicating through it. Of course, I will still miss many. I shall avoid watching videos shared in FB. 

2011:

• "God, I thank you for everything" is going to be the ONLY prayer for 2011
• Need to sleep at least 6 hours per day and 45 hours per week
• Aashayein, Peepli Live, Leader,  Lahore, Kalavani, Lafangey Parindey, Angaadi Theru, Kajraare - movies I enjoyed watching in year 2011. Will choose and watch few more this year too. Will try one tech video per two weeks this year
• Time slots for email checking, restricted. No urgent information through email
• Should try my hand in drawing (just with pen and pencil)
• Not a promise but at least one blog per month
• Have to send one email to a person per day, exclusively thinking of that person, whom I can't meet/speak for at least a month.
• I am looking for vertical strip t-shirt for the past two months. I couldn't get the one I wanted. Will search for it.
• And trying to get a coffee-mug with star sign and quote printed. About 20 shops and three weeks... yet to get it.
• Life is a game. Winning is honestly giving the best of what I can give at the very moment. Will play the game innocently, intelligently.

2010:

• Fitness
• No TV
• Read minimum 6 books
• Watching tech/non-tech videos at the rate of at least one in two weeks
