Its actually interesting and something that evokes the thought process. Though we have access to these puzzles in many ways, ie, via net, mob application, etc, I would prefer to have mine right from the back of the hindu newspaper along with its difficulty rating. Anything beyond a star rating of four implies ' do not attempt' for me. First and foremost because of the fact that the usual weekend mornings are not blessed with long hours of relaxation and enjoyment, and secondly because my patience gets exhausted at the mere thought of not finishing it, for what irks me most is the process of spending a lot of time and energy without obtaining any result. Thank God, it has never happened to me before (because I've never taken that pain of spending a lot of time and energy :P). Anyway emerging from drifting thoughts, let me focus on my mainstream topic now. It consists of 81 small boxes divided into 9 major boxes each containing 9 each[ 9*9=81, makes sence, na? :), in...

The blog post!

To start with, I think I should justify the heading, the title post, well, this is again one of those blog posts I'm putting in after a very very long time in which a lot of wonderful and not so wonderful things have happened in my life. Well thats why its called "The blog post!" One of the books I have been recently reading is Sidin Vadukut's Who let the dork out?. About the book and all, its quite funny and interesting and it was more interesting for me as was written by a malayali. Some words randomly thrown here and there did make some sense to me! The sad part is that well, in between I got lazy and still have around 50 pages towards the climax. This trait of my character that I identified is that I do not like to dive deep into anything. I might find something interesting and trust me, I dont even start with anything if I dont find it very interesting.I get the plot then I leave. Its too difficult to keep my interest pinned onto something. But these days ...

The usual

Hmm..havent written a single thing since i made this public..anyway I've finally put myself together to sit and write a post. So where do we start, oh ya the last few days wer in every way hectic, intense and awesome in its own way. Just a few philosophical reflections of life which occured in my mind today which id like to share..im a bit too sleepy nd lazy as i write this so pls dont mind any silly errors which im bound to make by virtue of being an ordinary guy..it appears to me as if every single person around me is in a mad frenzy to get something done within some stipulated time, exams next week maybe thts y..im nt sure..but all my friends in some way or the other appear to be too busy to spare some time to even say hi..is it just me or..?? alas..let me relieve my mind of it now. is this the 1st time ive felt this..no i guess..even bak at school..i donno..i somehw dont like ths personally..il indeed try nd prove tht havin a cool mind is no disaster. Baah!! Life is truly awes...
