Sex, drugs, career...on mind!

Follow us:WhatsappFacebookTwitterTelegram.cls-1{fill:#4d4d4d;}.cls-2{fill:#fff;}Google NewsIt's hard being young. Trying to strike the right balance between an active sex life. a budding career. making enough money to invest. hiding hickeys. and making sure the concelaer gives way just when your in the midst of friends so they know you're getting enough action. ...the mind doesnt stop strategising!

Careers, passions, vices, addictions, peer pressure. It's bizzare how anyone who's minus thirty-the youth- thinks about all these things while doing everything.

you wake up in the morning. Look at urself in the mirror in your jocks. the abs need a lil more toning. you're not the like the health magazine poster boy yet. Anything less, not good enough. some more gymming perhaps. and that cheese cake in the fridge...must go.

Pull out the milk carton from the refrigerator... throw in some cereal... get ready for work. Have been in the company for just three months..but your eyes are already set on the corner office. And yes, we have to have a secretary! if it takes sleeping with someone to get that chair... ummm... i dont know..but not totally averse to the idea. The ultimate goals matter ... the road to get there, as long as it's not terribly sinful...god will understand.

I've noticed a pattern. Each time my friends and I get together, we're all trying to figure ways in which to climb the social ladder. Make more moolah while we're at it. Four friends together with a bizzare idea to start a band, open a night club, just get a tatoo or talk about trying to get into a live in relationship and wonder if it'll end up being an open relationship with lotsa sex on offer!
when that seems to take too much time, a trip to goa gets planned before you know it . The jokes continue, the digs, the sarcasm, the "who do ya wanna nail"...It's like having a business deal being struck.... on a baywatch set. eyes constantly lookign for new targets in the cofee house. The bachelor pad was bought for a reason afterall! whatz the point if the only visitor there is your grandmother!

thatz what i like about my gang of friends. the minus thirty gang who're independent, who have the balls to admit they have addictions and they need to deal with them. Who make high risk investments when they know they stand to loose everything. But have enough heart to say... If that happens..we'll stand up and make it happen all over again. thatz the kind of gang that makes it all cool. The one's who know they can get into a whole lotta trouble. And also know..they've got the brains to crawl outta them!

The one night stands. the falling in love. The ocassional drinking and then saying..I've had enough..dont need no alcohol. To waking up one morning and saying..I may be breaking out into zits... my gymming is going for a toss coz i gotta get to work... but look at opportunities that make it a point to drop by everyday at my door step.

There has never been a better time to be minus thirty. And there really hasnt been a better time to have our space that lets us talk about all these things. for this Half hour on CNN IBN, the politicians will just have to wait. Coz this show- MINUS THIRTY...really is about us! saturday nights, 10:30...couldnt get better!

Paras! ;)
