BLOG: read, write or edit a shared online journal, thats how my dictionary defines it. But many people may define it differently and may get very passionate about it. But thats not the point right now.. it is ... to blog or not to blog??
The Beginning: It all began with my introduction to the blogosphere. Primarily after a few months into IIT, and more specifically after enjoying a few events of the great LitSec, Blogs became a part of my introvert virtual life. I started reading them for analyzing people's writing habits, commenting and learning new ideas or sometimes, simply for killing time. But I could never find a good enough reason to indulge in writing myself or rather share my seemingly endless random thoughts with everyone... I always felt that my thoughts were private and had to be kept for my own or for those who had time to listen to me... but surely not for everyone.
The Interim: My rigid ideology began to disintegrate in the first month of 3-2, when I was working (like a slave of my own making) for Cognizance. With no time to socialize and working for hours at a time without breaks, my frustration levels began to skyrocket and this started having a bad impact on all my relationships. This made me realize that I needed to find another way to ventilate my thoughts which were seemingly getting lost in my overtly busy life. I had to find other mediums to channel my frustration into more productive areas, I had to find a way to connect with those with whom I had lost contact. I didn't have an option any longer... I had to BLOG.
The Decision: Well, the decision is quite apparent, which you would have guessed even before reading this post... but I thank you for wasting your time reading this crap... hopefully my future posts would contain more challenging material for your endless intellect. Till then, have fun and have a safe and prosperous Holi!!
PS: I just realized I wrote my first blog on Holi!! Auspicious beginning?? Lets see... :)
