Part-III

Alright its 16 Aug 2017 and I am writing part III of my memoir.

Aah an year has passed now since last post and as usual lot of things have changed for me. Moved from one product to another product (CP4 to SYN), not a drunkard anymore. Moved away from daily drinking to weekend drinking. Don't believe, well yeah, its too hard to believe that but yes, I have moved on from being a drunkard to a planned drinker.

Let me write about drinking first, after all this is the major blog topic anyways. I used to drink a hell lot earlier but thank to MODI, I am a planned drinker. Hell yes, the day note ban happened, I was cash starved so could not drink for a week then visited Patna for my routine vacation. Nitish had banned liquor in Bihar by then so no drinks there as well. It turned out to be a boon in disguise as I got a break from beer for approx a month. Somehow will power creeped in and I decided not to go to regular drinking any more. Now, its been around 10 months and I am a weekend drinker.

Also moved from beer to whisky. Well, never though that I would be able to give up on beer but it happened. No more 300 bucks a day for beer. Its a 460 bucks for a full bottle of MC1 whisky which keep me running over weekend. Cost saving, health saving and all good. Initially there were itchings to grab in middle but slowly I got tuned to weekend stuff. Yesterday was a bank holiday, on 14th evening mind poked me have a whisky on 14th night but I avoided it. Will power indeed.

If I look back on fast three four years, I have given up on two bad habits, gutkha 2 years ago and now beer. What a change, that too without big boasts of giving up etc. It slowly came to me without any noise and I am happy about it.
