TWENTY THREE and nowhere to be !

This is for all the people who are going to be 23 and have this strong feeling that “meri umar mei toh logo ne na jane kya kya kar liya tha.” Well, it is not a very nice feeling, is it?

So, I guess this one is just a gift from me to me on my 23 to be… I think that I (We, if you’re going to be 23 and you too have nowhere to be) am going to list 2+3 things that I can do on my budday. Guess what, my 23rd is on a Sunday ! Unlucky? Or Lucky? I am still confused.. Time hi batayega..

But here is a list of 2+3 things I plan on doing on my 23rd budday and the year following it..

1. Sleep, because I can.

Yeah yeah yeah..sab ke taane sunne padengey. Log lazy kahengey. But if I don’t sleep (till no one wakes me up) then are these usual comments going to stop? No, right !

Then I am fucking going to sleep.

And look at it this way, atleast in my dreams I have so many places that I have to be and so many thing have to be.. The place where I can openly say "mei apni favorite hoon".. JK, not thaaaat self obsessed.

2. Sleep, because I need to.

Yeah yeah yeah.. sab kahengey ki din bahar sone ke alawa kuch kaam nahi hai kya? But if I don’t sleep (till no one wakes me up) then am I actually going to find some kick ass job and suddenly everyone is going to be al happy? No. Yeah, thought so. And who wants a job in this start-up era? Actually, I do.. I really do.. I am just too pricey to showcase my talent you know.

3. Sleep, because I am creative (in my head, at least) and my creativity needs rest.

Yeah yeah yeah.. sab kahenegey ki raat ko jaldi soya karo and subah jaldi utha karo, yehi aadat lagai hoti toh itni neend nahi aati. But if I don’t sleep (till the time no one wake me up) then am I going to sleep early and not think about the ninja things I think in my head and the only time I feel like a superhero? No. Right.So, yeah, I might as well juts nap and nap.

4. Cannot really be sleeping all day ! So wakey wakey !!

Yeah yeah yeah.. I had to wake up, didn’t I or I would have proved all the above people right.And I have to be the kickass person I am in my mind. This is a new year and I have to listen to all the people asking for a treat because it is everyone’s birth right.Oh, and also I have to speak to people I talk with only 2 times a year ( 1 on my budday and 2 on theirs !) And I need to because budday pe party toh banti hai.. (Obviously parents ko lootne ke baad) because I don’t earn because I am still discovering myself and 23 is too young to be anything, because sadly I am not a high school dropout.

5. THE SELF EXPLANATION STAGE (YAY ME)

Finally I am going to start acting all grown up and start doing the things I think I am actually going to be great at and then find nothing and then just sulk. But, it is my birthday so I am going to be pumped up again and decide that let just today be, I can figure all this out again, tomorrow, anyway, I have become 23 and I cannot get younger. But, if you think like that, I am getting wiser.. (and old)..

6. Extra one (for good luck)

Avoid all the questions that sum up to “aur beta shaadi ka kya socha hai?”because my age and my 23 years of this roller coaster doesn’t just boil down to my marriage because I Have turned 23.. and after getting all pissed about this question, I am going to do what I do THE best, SLEEP !

Yeah, quite boring right? That’s how I have imagined that everyone’s 23rd birthdays are because one just doesn’t feel the excitement. Driving age, 18, crossed, Entries in club age, 21 crossed, legally drinking age (in Mumbai), 25, tooo far..It is like I am hanging in between .. stuck between “Aache din aayengey and aache din aake gaye”because this is the “CAREER MAKING, PATH FINDING umar... I feel like I am a decade away from all that..
