I am getting older. As yet another Birthday approaches, I know I am. It doesn’t freak me out as in “freak-me-out” but it kinda does too. Hmmmpph!! No, I actually sighed. Hmmmpph..another one!! Gawwd Am I getting older already!! Okay let me catch my breath first..yeah I am good now.
Well, its not like I am afraid of adding years. I am more concerned about all I want to do with Life and I have not started just as yet!
I wanted to be an astronaut, while I was much younger, you know, go to NASA, find out if the US moon mission was actually fake, meet with the aliens. I swear I KNOW aliens exist!! I KNOW they do, you wanna bet?
Then, I wanted to be a Paleontologist, this was after I read too many Dinosaur books and watched Jurassic park too many times. I even had a DinoScare quiz game! I can pronounce every single complicated name of their species- I do wonder though, why in Sauropodomorpha’s name would you name them thus. Whatever! I still love Dinosaurs!!
And then I wanted to be a rock star- My career almost took off when the Surd music teacher at school taught us “Siiilent night..hoooly night” and several other beauuutiful christmas carols. I even learnt how to play a bongo and hold the guitar!! Damn, I could have been the next James Blunt!
And then I almost wanted to be a basketball player. I was too tall for my age. I was told I could be a good player, if only I’d take my hands outside my trouser pockets while playing. Gawwd! It was too cold a weather to play in- Give the l’il girl a break!
Okay the list is too long and the consequences too tragical. The road has been long and winding. I don’t even know how I ended up having anything to do with the stock exchange. By the way, Has anyone seen the @#$%^& HCL ad? Gawd!! They make investment bankers look like VERY VERY dumb people!! I don’t even want to get into what people at "HCL Technology Solutions" do! We all know they do some Really neat stuff. Lets just leave it at that, shall we?
Anyways, I digressed. And I just realized how much ever I brood over it, what's gone is gone. I wish I could realize that more often, though.
I have done many things I shouldn’t have.
I haven’t done many things I should have.
I have hurt people and I shouldn’t have.
I haven’t kicked people I should have.
I have hidden from people how much I well.."Don't-really-like-them"- I sure as hell shouldn't have.
I haven’t told people how much I like them- I should have.
I have cried for the wrong people.
I have laughed at the wrong people.
I have smiled too little.
I have thanked too less.
I could have been better.
I could have been something I am not.
Except that, I could not have been something other than what I am. But each passing day, I try to get closer to what I want to be.
And I aint getting older- I am just getting wiser and umm..Older :|
But..(wait! remember "Happy(s) Ending(s)") I wont Ever stop dreaming!
I still want to own an Island Resort. Anybody willing to donate one for the right cause? Look no further- CAUSE its here( me me me !!)
Cheers!

Wish I was sober
So I could see clearly now
The rain has gone
Simone
I guess it's over
My memory plays our tune
The same old song”

Ha! Ha! that sounded like a midlife crises...had fun reading it...please don't get offended..but honesty I enjoyed the blog...take it easy girl...I already have a plan chalked out for myself...I gonna have many kids ( provided I become millionaire before I am too old to have any ) ..and would make sure..my boys are good with guitar, salsa, horse riding, skiing etc before they hit the college...and I would join them...and pick and learn few things from them..hmmm a decent plan...
Surprisingly I have found that I have loved "the growing older" thing ....every time I look back my old pics and old time..I find myself more smart, wiser, practical, capable now..to explore and enjoy the Liquor called "LIFE"....and for the Aspirin...as they say....you don't need one ...when you are having a good quality Liquor aka "LIFE"..:-)
Have a great Valentine !!
