New Year Resolution 2017

If you have read my previous year New Year resolution, you can skip reading this.

Gained weight last year. I need to control it

Please don’t give me any suggestion

I need to learn at least 25 new English words (2 per month and 1 to make it round) and 365 non English

I myself will get some resources

Email forwards, Orkut, Facebook and now WhatsApp joins the list. So less time there and possibly will try to increase other modes of communication

Your suggestions are welcome

Clean up non-mandatory things... Will do this year too. Will try to get the photos organised - full year goal

Thinking of online storage + hard disk. Do you have any good solution?

Will increase the book reading time. I shall choose the books I wanted to read for next 10+ months by January 14, 2017. At least one from Amitav Ghosh, Preeti Shenoy and few from Osho is for sure

What are your favourite English non-fictions written by foreign authors?

Will spend time on reflecting on things that I complete before completely moving into the next task

Do you do, how?

The Kite Runner

Usually, I buy and read book suggested by my friends but no one suggested me to read the book "The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini". I neither heard about it before I accidentally bought it. I was looking for the books I planned to buy in the Chennai Bookfair 2011 and I found this book .

I am glad I got this book. It is one of best books I read in the recent years. The phrase " For you, a thousand times over " lingering in the mind is the proof that I really enjoyed reading this book and moved so much ;) " I became what I am today at the age of twelve, on a frigid overcast day in the winter of 1975 &

New Year Resolution 2015

Another new year, another ( same! ) set of new year resolutions. I wanted to read Thirukural and set target 50 last year but couldn't achieve it. But then I used one Kural in my every blog post . New Year Resolution List: For year 2016, I should shorten it to at least 1/3 of this list. At least, make it more readable ;) Reading Books: Book reading is going to be reduced this year. I am planning to reread few of the books I read last year. Of course, will find time to read books suggested by friends. I have got Bhagavad Gita tamil version from my friend and might read this before the end of 2015. I Am Malala, The Last Temptation of Jesus Christ, Mossad, 'The Madman, The Forerunner, Spirits Rebellious', Yudhargal Varalaarum Vaazkaiyum, If You Meet The Buddha On The Road Kill Him are few of the books I enjoyed reading. By the way, I have changed the FB album title from "Books I read" to "Books I read - Not To Be Shared" ;) Accounting: How difficu
