Its become a trend now hasn't it? Blogging the day's activities, writing blogs to create awareness. Superstars use it as a medium to reach out to their fans. To the extreme of anonymous people having used this new form of media to stir up controversies in cricket matches and teams (read fakeiplplayer)!

My pull towards blogging has been present for a while now, but the same old apprehension of starting something and leaving it half way always provided the inertia that Newton has so famously talked about.

Shakespeare said the World's a stage, and I guess entertaining others becomes an unsaid prerogative for us. So I have decided to start off with a blog I can call my own, and try to be regular in it! Through these blogs, I intend to write about anything and everything under the sun, but as I have been knighted an entertainer through one random Shakespeare thought, I will try to get a laugh out of all those who read it on most occasions. No promises though. I do manage to become all thoughtful and mature once in a blue moon, and those days you would probably get a large dose of philosophy coming your way.

And anyways, I personally think all the famous quotes which we manage to insert everywhere right from Literature essays to lecturing our siblings, are all accidental in the first place. No one would say things having the foresight of knowing that random people are going to be quoting them in the future. Hence, I have convinced myself to believe that unknowingly or otherwise, I too will manage to write a few phrases through these blog entries which will happen to catch someone's attention and warrant usage as future quotes!

Finally, if I really had to thank an event apart from my own self for convincing me to overcome the initial indecision and start these blogs, it has to be Chetan Bhagat. This guy and his latest novel '2 States' have become my all time favourite (at least for the next few months). So, here's a toast to you Chetan and to myself for finally starting something which I knew I always wanted to do...WRITE! (in any case, I think its the second best thing I do after 'talking')
