List #3: Things I want to get done in 2026

Life seems to move along with less friction when I have projects to look forward to.

With the year coming to an end, it feels like a good moment to write down a few things I want to get done next year.

  1. Move to HSR/Indiranagar by the end of March: I live in Electronic City currently, which is a world apart from the rest of Bangalore. It makes communiting a chore (and also expensive). I want to move to either HSR (which closer to my new office) or Indiranagar (which is closer to where most of my friends live). The down side is that I have a 2BHK house all to myself currently and I doubt I'll get half as large a space for the same rent in either location.

  2. Get a MCWOG license: I've been wanting to get one for a while now. I had gone to a driving school last year to apply for one, but for whatever reason they applied for a MCWG (i.e. Motorcycles With Gear; I want a Motorcycles Without Gear license instead).

  3. Buy a scooter: I had been relying on Yulu for the last 3 years to get around small distances in Bangalore. But they have drastically reduced the area they cover while also reducing the number of parking spots they have, making it not a rather inconvenient option at the moment.

  4. Finish my portfolio: It has been lying incomplete since forever. I think I'll get some free time early next year, and I want to sit down and finish it so that I can apply to more jobs later in the year.

  5. Travel to:

    • Kochi: for the Kochi Muziris Biennale,
    • Kodaikanal: to try shrooms maybe, and
    • Goa: as a part of my goal to travel to all states in India at least once; Goa will be my 23rd.
