Have a SSSSMOKIN' new year!!

I gave the blog a new year’s gift…a brand new animated background! Looks cool doesn’t it?
31st night was an unique experience. I went to Haldia for a holiday far away from the extravagant nightlife, the incessant revelry, the overcrowded restaurants and the stooped DJ music. No Someplace Else for me this year! I spent the first few hours of my new year smoking Insignia and bitching about the entire planet with three friends. One of them is a classmate at whose place I was staying over. He loves playing cards and talking. He can carry on for hours. But he is a very nice guy. Thanks for inviting us Dipu!! The other two were from Calcutta. One of them is in BCom. He’s one hell of a businessman. He is working like mad to get his business started and he’s the most ambitious person I’ve ever seen. He’ll be a millionaire someday, I’m sure! I wish him all the luck. The second one is an eclectic individual. He can have a conversation with ANY girl and his taste in music is by any standards ‘strange’. But the best thing about him is that he has no hassle’s in life, completely carefree. Tell him to do anything or come along anywhere and he will oblige without hesitation.
We were discussing how some people could not come with us for various reasons. Someone had guests coming over, another faced problems from the family, another had to attend a tea party with his tyrannical grandmom and so on and so forth. It was possible for some to come if only they tried a bit harder. I went through that phase in class 10. Innumerable night-outs and endless adda-s were met with unending reprimand. It went on for days…every single aspect of my life was criticized but I was persistently defiant. But now it’s all cool. Not because they can’t control me anymore but because they have grown to trust me now. And so whatever I do, it’s cool with them!
I felt sorry for the people who I couldn’t even ask knowing that their answer would be ‘no’. Especially the ladies, they would love to join us. They are missing out the most amazing aspect of life – adventure. I hope some of them can join us for our next trip…
Ok…so, the new year begins thus. I somehow have a very bad feeling about this year…like something unpleasant is going to happen. I loved 2005, it was just too perfect. I came up with three resolutions for the new year: 1. Talk more 2. Smile more 3. Secret. Hope I can keep them.
Wishing everyone a SSSMOOKIN’ (‘Mask’ style) new year!!

gairik, in Indian money ,a million is only 10 lakhs ;);) almost everyone of your college friends are probably millionaires n so are you!

i think this is the second time i have ever read through blogs (the concept is too scary, devilishly time taking and ... ok i better stop now :)ok let me finish, objective is unclear .there :)

artistic i guess, well the background was pretty cool, but the content ,again objective not clear,personal diaries have a very good purpose, you go thru it and see yourself from the 3rd person view and improve yourself.Blogging is....different i guess n sumthing that i shall never ever understand.so cheerio and have fun :)

But as a non blogger maybe i should share my reaction to this concept when i went thru some of your (n your frnds) blogs) itfelt exactly like when you land into a party full of doped out ppl (when you are not) - freaked outtttt :O




:p

decoy's a cool word. sums up the entire blogging phenomenon, no? lots of things to say. let me arrange them. okay, here goes ~

1. am sure you had one of the best beginnings of the year. funnily, i have a good feeling about this year. don't know why. probably the overworked bad-feeling glands have given away now.

2. why is it that i don't get the animated background? it comes out stable and pretty normal.

3. am i the only non-doper out here?

4. heard that there's a possibility of a blog meet on the 11th. ashbi?
