2014 has been a awesm year.. let’s see wat happened
Now the big question, wat to do in 2015!!? this is one difficult question cause i think the answer should be more realistic, practical at the same time challenging nd fun :D. well, somehow i made my list. Some of them can be checked every month, some only mid-way into the year nd some only at the end of the year. But i don’t have to worry abt that for another 365 days. So i’l jst list it out nd do my best
Dat’s it for me guys. Wat abt u!! make ur plans nd njoy ur new year 😉

Posted My Past
inMy life was like any other teen or at-least i thought so. I used to watch a lot of movies, sit on my butt all day eating chips, chocolates, ice creams, cakes, indian snacks, lots nd lots of soda nd don’t forget the infamous but tasty, Hyderabad Dum Biryani. As if this isn’t enough, i started a new habit then, yeah alcohol. Initial plan was to taste, but later it went on without any control. Well initial target was achieved though, tasted every thing from beer, vodka, whiskey, rum etc, but problem was it didn’t stop with just tasting. That resulted in me gaining 15 kgs in a span of 6 months or so. And all this without any kind of physical activity.
At that time, running and cycling were like mars and jupiter to me, un-important, far from my reach, useless to think about nd most importantly meaningless. Yes, u heard it right, “meaningless” was what i thought of running nd cycling. Not surprisingly, but unfortunately, many of my friends share the same view even now. Hopefully they will change their views in future. Now, coming back to my views, when a friend of mine suggested to try running, i was like “come on man running 5k/10k is boring enough, who runs 21/42? huh!!”.
And then the unthinkable happened. A couple of friends of mine nd some seniors had a plan to go on a joy ride. I was nearby cause of our mutual interest in photography nd i was asked to join. I was reluctant but i don’t know somehow decided to join them, may be not to hurt their feelings or to try a new thing. Thing is it just happened by accident. The ride was around 25 km, with a lot of altitude variations and i just loved it. Not just cycling, the feeling u get when ur pushed hard to ur limit, the exhaustion nd pain, the opportunity to chat nd laugh with friends, at the same time peddling at 15-20 mph, funny photographs we took n finally the feeling of fulfilment.
This was me nd i took a new road from there. I will end with that feeling, “fulfilment”.
