PROMISES ARE MEANT TO BE BROKEN

Promises are meant to be broken...this is my theory !!

Many intances in my life .. i have always felt .. whether there wld be ppl in this world who do things like what i do ..Iam trying to put few instances... if there are ppl who feel the same or diff with some more spiced up narration to these feelings.. join me..

Out of all promises i make to myself.. the following are the prominent ones i break the most..

1. EARLY MORNING PROMISE.... Everyday i want to wake up eraly and be a surrusurrupu person..every night before going to bed i try to promise myself that i would get up early the next morning.. but invariably some strange drama extends my imaginary cinema shots in my dream.. and by the time i realise..time is already 7:30 am !! Oh no.. i did this again.. but i wld never give up..and my promise continues for the next morning ... again !!


2. EVENING PROMISE..Keeping fit... Every day .. a mere look at my ever increasing thoppai.. reminds me abt the need to stay fit and lean... if not like arnold shwaznegar...atleast stay fit with a flat stomach .. without the ever increasing thoppai.. and everyday i assure myself that i would go for a walk or a jog in the evening .. this i start the morning with few exercises ( i think bending 10 times is also an exercise )... and bingo.. after just 5-10 min of this session.. i feel really tired !!.. there it goes .. my interest winds up and i pacify myself that i would compensate my lapse with the evening walking session... but in my world nothing is for certain.. just when u make up ur mind to keep up the evening promise..there come ur boss .. sending an email at 5 pm to take care of some urgent issue..or there comes ur ever-pestering friend of yours asking you to give some company for dinner.... bingo.. all ur plans for the evening walk goes to drain ... and promises continue for the next day..!!


3. WEEKEND PROMISE... my house is in a bad shape.. things are completely shabby..if my mom comes back and sees my room cupboard... i would have to handle a few thittus :-( ...so let me make sure i will clean up things on this weekend.. i sincerely draw plans for the schedule and make a promise that i would acheive the target definitely by this weekend... the comes the friday night.. invariably the very thought of approaching weekend makes me very happy on a friday evening.. i normally stop working after friday afternoon.. u have to understand that this is human nature !! :-)... so friday evening will be occupied with some movies or some stupid good old cricket match in ESPN.. where they keep repeating shewags / 10dulkars centuries.. handful wins india ever had abroad... then i re-visit my plans for the weekend house cleaning work..my mind reminds me of the upcoming challenges i need to complete for the weekend... but i say to myself.. "common.dude.. its friday night .. just chillout.. watch some tv till night and its ok to get up late on saturday.. for god's sake its weekend...".
there goes the internal saathaan... before i realise its saturday afternoon.. bloody-hell all my plans are going the other way round...and by the time i go ..eat.. have my haircut..its evening...hmm..now what to do.. i say to myslef.. "dont worry yaar.. there is one more day to complete the task..".. and by the time i sleep .. after watching the intersting stuff that gets broadcasted on saturday night tv channel :-).. its 3 am in the morning... and i never knew when i slept...and again by the time i wake up .. visu's arratai arrangam is on the verge of getting over..its 11:30 am... i say to myself..that i wld stay home whatever happens.. and get my job done..so with some initial thought before cleaning i decide to first wash my clothes... and do all preparation to put in the washing machine.. by this time iam hungry..c hunger waits for none.. and the very thought of having a good tasty andhra/tamil style food in nandini hotel..increases ur saliva secretion and ur hunger too..with some effort , i start the washing machine..proram it to finish the job in 2 hrs.. [ i might not be punctual..but i expect that for sure from my 15k washing machine ] . i have brunch...and come back ..hoping i will have a short nap and start my work.. there comes my neighbor at 5 .. waking my siesta..asking for news paper...!! but i realise then that power went off few hrs b4 and my clothes in washing machine is just stayed half washed..oh no..!! and doing the rest of washing by myself takes time till 6...then comes a call from my friend..who tempts me saying he has got a ticket for a movie..without any hesitation i agree to be there at the theatre at 7 pm.. and i say to myself..."it hardly takes half-an-hour to clean up..lemme come back and do that ..now let me enjoy the weekend bash b4 i get into the hectic work on monday.."...so there i go ... my return back home takes 10 pm and ...there goes another promise that was never fulfilled...my house still remains shabby ..but who cares.. lemme do that for the next weekend !...
