2013: New Year Resolutions!

First of all, let me wish all of you who visit my blog a very healthy, most prosperous and a

                                               

Unlike in the distant past where each new year celebration was carefully planned well in advance, (particularly in the years before I left my hometown where most of the New Year Eves I spent playing the accordion with my band in the town’s youth club until the wee hours of the morning) my ‘Sosa’ (wife) and I celebrate nowadays quite a bit differently.  In the early afternoon we went to see a movie, after the movie we stopped at our favorite restaurant to have dinner, then went home where with some snacks, a bottle of Champagne, and the TV remote control our gala celebration of the New Year evening began somewhere around 8 pm and we even managed to stay up celebrating till 11 pm. As usual we called it a night well before midnight.

Even though our New Year’s Eve is celebrated quietly that isn’t so in our neighborhood where fireworks can be heard well past midnight. 

Now, since the New Year is here to stay, and since the tradition calls for some New Year resolutions to be made, I too have pledged some changes to make this year, like;

(1)    I’ll quit smoking

(2)    I’ll quit drinking

(3)    I’ll lose weight

Now, statistically they somewhere stated that if you can succeed 67% by the next year that’s doing well; the truth be told I’ve never been a smoker or a drinker so I guess I have a very good chance of coming out a winner even if I don’t stick to the diet my Sosa has put me on.

SRPSKI:

Pre svega, svima   Vama koji posecujete ove stranice, neka Vam  je srecna I bericetna ova  nova godina! U uporedjenju sa ranijim godinama kada se docek nove godine planirao mesecima unapred (posebno dok nisam otisao iz starog kraja  cesto sam provodio novogodisnje veceri svirajuci na harmonici sa svojom grupom)  danas moja Sosa I ja taj docek dozivljavamo sasvim na drugi nacin.

Obicno, kao i juce, smo ranije po podne otisli da pogledamo neki film, posle filma smo svratili u nas omiljeni restoran na veceru, dosli kuci do 20h i pored nekih 'grickalica', flase sampanjca, i TV uglavnom proslavljali "docek nove godine" vec po ustaljenoj navici, tj. retko kad docekamo na nogama do 21h!

Doduse, i pored toga sto smo mi vec napravili "fajront" i otisli na spavanje, iz komsiluka su se cule petarde sve do, pa cak i posle, ponoci tako da nam se dalo do znanja da nas 'nova godina' ipak nije promasila.:)

Obziram da je nova godina tu (gde ce i ostatit sve do iduce) po ustaljenoj tradiciji mnogi izlaze javno sa svojim novogodisnjim kojekakvim rezolucijama, tj. obecanjima sta ce sve nastojati da promenu u svom zivotu (na bolje) u novoj godina, pa tako i ja po onoj: - Kud svi Turci tu i celavi Mujo, postavio sam sebi rezoluciju da u ovoj godini (sve do kraja!) cu:

(1)  Prestati da pusim
(2)  Prestati da pijem (alkohol)
(3)  Biti i izdrzati na (strogoj) dijeti

E sad, statisticki je priznato, da ukoliko neko moze da odrzi dve od tri (67%) rezolucije ta osoba je "od reci" i za pohvalu tako da ja imam 'zdravo' dobru sansu da uspem (tacnije, prezivim) tu dijetu koju mi je moja Sosa pripisala, tim pre, sto ja nikad ni pre nisam - pusio niti pio!:)

Jos jednom, sve najlepse u  novoj 2013toj!
