Remember couple of posts earlier I had said that i was denied a seat!! well I got it back...I know I know I sound like a firefly, saying “Now my ass is on fire, Now its not...........” :P, but the primary reason for this “firefly” act was that earlier I was trying for the government seat but now I am joining in by payment seat, i.e more than 85k. I know it doesn't sound a lot of money to you, but its a lot to me, my parents actually :P. so yes I am back onto chasing my dream. Again :D.

# 11 Blog to Change My Life : Harshita's Chill Out Zone

Awesome is just an understatement for this blog, I mean she is the one person I would trust my life on, Sometimes I cant figure out what is she, human? or superhuman?, If superman was a woman and had an Indian version of it I think harshita would be it, her writing is more powerful than sunny paaji's dhai kilo ka haath, cause when she writes about social injustice, it makes you feel bad, not just about the person or situation, but about yourself, thinking why cant I do something about this?? even after reading her blog post it will linger in your heart and, it will always be reminding you, be good dude, be good (at least today), and when she writes about her life, you wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, because your every worry will go away when you read it, its so.., I mean its so very good..

Lesson learnt about life from the blog: Live life to the fullest, But never ever forget your responsibility, and help someone, whenever you can.

#12 Blog to Change My Life: As The Mind Meanders

This guy knows his cool, I mean cool can be his middle name, whatever I mean Whatever he writes is so awesome that you are left with a feeling which says “Damn why cant I write like this guy??” and his readers will vouch for that, believe me, everything he writes is so very innovative that awesomeness oozes out of his writing. I mean just give him a picture and you will have a story in no time and that too in such a unique way that you are left spell bound when you read it, yes I know its hard to believe, but its true all right, when I read his blog it taught me that an open mind is far more capable than a bound one. So....

Lesson learnt about life: Let the MindMeander Dude, Let it just Meander ;)

#13 Blog to change my life: The Other Perspective

Genius is the least that he can be called, I mean he has more potential that a Nuclear Bomb,(his head is normal though, I don't know how) Innovation and creativity are at its best in his writing. Because its unique in its own ways, its strong and its hard to believe, because you wont be able to believe and will just think “can somebody write so good?”, and you will be hitting your fist to your head more than a couple of times asking only one question over and over again which is “Now why didn't I think of that??”, the stories he writes are so powerful that after you read them you will feel like you have been hit by Mike Tyson himself, really shocking stuff, real good stuff. According to me his winning formula is only this 'Think Unique-Think some more-Write-Achieve', and thats what exactly I too will be working on from now on.

Lesson learnt about life: Think Think and think some more

#14 blog to change my life: Viva Forever

Keshi. Ah the name itself is enough. She is the most humane human I have ever seen in this so mean of a world. She is so pure hearted that I think by just with her one touch she can even make flowers blossom in a barren dessert, her words are like small drops of heaven which make me feel blessed every time I read them, everything she writes is so emotional and so touching towards your life that you will feel “how come she is living my life?” , you will relate to her life so very much.
She is a really amazing person, I mean amazing doesn't even describe her, you know she is basically from Srilanka working in America but she has a sponsored child in Srilanka, she just doesn't send her money for the child's caring, but even writes personalized letters, buys clothes and does everything to make the child happy, even though she is so far away, who in the world does that nowadays??, people don't have time for themselves and in these times she cares for him and not just for him but for every person who cares for her, she is so good that even if you don't like her(only reason could be you are Satan), she with her care will make you to forget that and make you love her for what she is, I mean if I start writing I will run out of words and still wont be able to make justice as to how much of a true hearted person she is, her words are my inspirations, I was a mess one time, but when I read a post of her about how to find love in yourself, I have been a much much better person now, all thanks to her, I mean I just cannot thank her enough for writing, for making me feel belonged, for being always there, I just wanna thank god for making me come across her blog and making me to get to know her, if I now run into bad situation or get depressed for some reason, I think from keshi's preceptive and even though the problem might not be solved, fighting it becomes a whole a lot easier, I just wanna say “keshi the biggest change in my life was brought by you, I owe everything to you for that, and whenever you need me (or even if you don't need me :P)I will be always there for you, its my promise now and it will be my promise forever.”

Lesson learnt about life: Life is a BIG mess, Just be patient and sort it out and it will be the most beautifulest thing ever.

OK those were the blogs that changed my life, but the coming blogs supply the best medicine known to man. Laughter.

Miss Kido

when I first read her blog, I was so impressed that I literally wanted to say Ma kido devi ki jai :D, I mean she knows funny and believe me I have read couple of funny blogs(no pun intended) and they are no way close to her, she with her striked word lines can make anyone laugh, and in just a matter of minutes I was her fan already, at that moment itself i read all her posts, and I gotta tell you I was literally on floor laughing, not just me when I showed her posts to my cousin brother it was the repeat of my floor situation, and he rarely laughs mind you, so I just wanna say, “Kido your writing makes me forget my worries and makes me feel better every time I read your blog, thank you for that and lemme tell you, your advice rocks :D”

Chronicwriter
The more I say about this guy the less it is, I mean he the funniest man I have ever read, his stories, his one liners are always and I mean always great to read, he writes about his life(mostly lies) and as much as they are funny it leaves a sensitive edge which the readers tend to hang on to, by which they are forced into dilemma as to whether its true or false?, he also has and alter ego, who is more cool than the author chriz itself, his posts always have a point to prove and he proves it in the most funniest way possible, he is the motivation for me, by which I became a lil more funny and lil more 'less serious' in my life, I mean You the man chriz, you the man. ;)

The Female Quotient

After a very good learning experience last month, I sat back to give an issue a lil thought (which I rarely do ;)),

So as I was reading blogs I found that, female bloggers are more than the male counterparts, and the blogs which I follow are also mostly female, so I thought why is it?, and the bulb upon my head lighted up (Ting;)), the reason which came to me was, as good as it can be, it’s because they are better writers than us.

In this case you have to agree with me, cause women are better story tellers than men, mostly will disagree with me, saying "dude you are a guy, how can u say that?", well I have to guys by saying "it’s the truth my friend, the damn truth", there is just no getting away from it,

So I wanted to prove this thought into a theory, and I did, so here is how I proved it,

As you all know women love to talk and talk and talk, but if you listen to them carefully, they actually make a point in everything they say, but we(the men) tend to ignore it, by just nodding our head to everything they say ;), (yeah, your boyfriend doesn’t hear to everything you say, its true ;)) but as the bulb started glowing brighter, I got to know, women make a point as to exactly what to tell, how to tell, and make it a point ‘till you listen’ for sure(I think, you know what I mean). But guys are different, the plus point in men is that we are good on content, we just talk about what matters most, and keep the other things at bay, which we eventually tend to forget, whereas they remember everything, they commit to their memory every minor details that we (the men) tend to forget, that’s the reason they write so good. As they see and tell about a situation from a totally different perspective,

also,the best thing about them is that, they feel what they write, than just merely writing what comes to their mind, whereas guys they just write the 1st thing that comes to their mind, that’s it. Theory proved

So here are some of the best blogs i found on the net which prove my theory,I had told you about 6 blogs earlier and it’s a continuation from there,

#7 blog to change my life: My Very Own Space

This blog is written by one of the coolest girls on planet, she seriously can beat anyone in coolness, one look at her blog and you will be bowled over, And she has got attitude to prove it, she is softhearted and humble, her writing is very unique and is very captivating, when I read couple of her posts, I made a very wrong assumption and thought she is ‘no feelings’ kind of person,(very sorry veda, really sorry ya), but the truth is she is very caring and adores everyone for what they are, She taught me a very good lesson(Read Below), Now I Don’t make any assumption before knowing a person for what they are, and it has worked wonders on me,

I have got to know, which person is good and who is bad(which you will read in my coming post), I am really grateful to her, and always will be, Thank you yaar, thank you very much Veda :)

Lesson learned in life: Don’t assume anything about a person before you know them completely

So that’s about women being better writers,

Couple of days back I learnt something new from my mom.
How to cook a jelly…. I know its silly even to mention it here, but the experience was wonderful, so I will share it with you anyway,

Well my aunt and my niece (suman) have come from mysore for the holidays, she is 8 and she raises hell in my house, by not letting me watch TV, not letting me eat, not even letting me to sit in my computer, she is bossy and cruel, and to think she is 8,god….

So, couple of days back, mom, aunt and suman went to shopping, and suman brought a jelly preparing powder, it’s the 1st time that we have brought jelly power to our house, (No, we are not poor), Reason being: my mom doesn’t like it very much, and it’s the same reason with me, so we don’t buy it,

Anyways, she bought it, but dint prepare it, 2 days back, suman and aunt left to another town for some work, they were to return the next evening, so to give suman a surprise ,

Mom said "I will make the jelly for her, when she gets back she will like it".

I had just gotten up from a nice and long sleep, but I said "mom I will help you" (I thought, let’s make suman happy, at least by that I may get the remote, the next day ;))

She said "what’s there to help? It’s easy just see the instructions and prepare, I got some work, you prepare",

I said to myself, "so much for offering help" ;) (Cause I am damn lazy, when i get up after a sleep)
I was still sleepy but I said ok, and I read the instructions it said "put 3 cups (500 ml) of water and boil"

I said to mom that, I was boiling the water, and was about to put 1.5 liters of water, when mom came and stopped me, and said "dumbo, just put 500ml, not 1500ml"

I smiled through the sleepy eyes and did as told, and after the water got boiled, I added it to the jelly mix and then carefully let it dissolve, mom had brought a designer bowl, so I put it up and let it refrigerate.

As I preparing for the jelly, I got know how much my mom works in the kitchen, even though it’s nothing preparing a jelly, I felt it was 'so much’ work to do, I thought how much my mom works the whole day, and I made a resolution that I will help her in the kitchen more often, (and have been doing so :)), and it really feels so good to help, to be a part of something nice,(my mom is still surprised to see this drastic change in me ;)) it feels great every time I help her, and I have also been learning new things to cook.

As evening dawned I saw the jelly, it looked great, I was happy, that I had done a pretty good job, even if there was none to do ;), but it felt good because I had added another feather to my cooking skills (I can now prepare tea, coffee, maggi :D, an occasional omlette, and now jelly too ;)) yahoo!!

suman came the other day, and I showed her the jelly, she was quite surprised, she looked at me with a questionable look, but she ate it anyway, I thought at least now she will let me watch TV or sit in my computer, but No, the fight is still going on as before, so much for being nice, Lol :D.

hope the award winners are all happy and others who read, liked it

Take care guys, c ya next time……..
