NM tagged me to do this! And since i haven't posted in ages, this is just the kick start!
My only worry is I am VERY unambitious! so to even find these 10 things might be tough! but here i go anyway! :)
10 things I miss in my life right now
- Girls nights out (which also has to do with lack of girlfriends since i moved to Blr)
- Stay late at work (esp when M is traveling) and catch up with office gossip and have chicken and dosa at a sidey joint (its called kentAcky fried chicken!) for dinner before going home!
- Street side shopping that could be done daily in Mumbai. Especially the 5rs earrings and rings that you could buy in the trains! (it does save a lot of money NOT being able to do it!;) The streets of Colaba for junk jewelry and funky bags and churchgate for rows and rows of books.
- Vada pav! raste ki pav bhaji and thele ka chinis to chinees to any other spelt colourful food!
- Late night jaunts during Ganpati festival along with my childhood buddies to have bhurji and cutting chai after doing typical crepe paper decoration every single year!
- Exchanging looong mails with M. Sometimes 5 a day!
- Talking crap with my brother (he is studying in the US) and laughing like crazies at silliest of things much to the bewilderment of my parents!
- Practicing for plays and group dance for months together to perform at Ganeshotsav celebrated in our building.
- Spending time with my parents
- Being able to fit least in a L!
10 things I want to achieve in next decade
- Bungee jump - I HAVE to feel the thrill.
- Travel all over India, especially Rajasthan and North East.
- Get a REAL tattoo
- Have another baby! :p
- Lose weight - lots of it!
- Make some kind of career in writing even if part-time.
- Try using contact lenses yet again to let M see my pretty (??) eyes often.
- Try and finish reading War and Peace and The tailor of Panama.
- Learn one new and exciting cuisine
- Learn to speak Kannada well enough.
That's that then! I thought i could never reach 10! I kept counting after every two I think! hehe!

So you and me have lots in common :) Good good...I like it :)
Oh darn why did you remind me of the Mumbai train rides and the shopping for bindis and earings ... sometimes we used to just do timepass and not even buy anything - but it was so much fun!
Ah the Ganeshotsav celebrations - we could have been partners in crime then! ;) SO many great memories from Mumbai - vada pav on a rainy day, street side shopping ... Tell me girl where did you live in Mumbai - we could have been best buds if I had know you then! :)

verrrry nice.... the 10 misses are almost all to do with mumbai and the "paraya ghar after shaadi".. so i guess it would be the same as any woman... surprisingly, i had no clue about the 10 things you were looking forward to doing in the next decade!! gee, hope i can help you do at least 9 of those.
not so sure about the contact lenses... :-)
i think my list would be about the same as yours....i miss guffawing with my brother. he's in the US too :) and i deinitely, absolutely miss the late nights out. sigh. why didnt appreciate them more when i actually had them!! :-D

The 10 things you miss are mostly related to the carefree bachelorhood days. I do hope you get to enjoy them again. I miss the Colaba and Churchgate days too since office is on the other end now :(
As for the 10 things you want to achieve :) I hope you achieve them soon. You wanna do bungee jumping? :))) I was just telling hubby the other day that I want to try sky diving once and he still cant fathom why I want to take such a risk hehehe
