When I look at other successful bloggers

So its like this when I was little (or maybe like 10 years younger than today :P) and regularly update my diary, I used to read and re-read and think one day I'd be a famous writer, only if there was a way that the world could see how good I am. So all this while I was thinking if only I could get this to the rest of the world. And then came the whole internet boom and a little later the blog became a possibility. Here there was a perfectly simple medium to let everyone have such an easy access to your life,all you had to do was put it out there and click b click share by share you'd be everywhere! That simple? Oh! I wish!!

There's nothing like the ultimate face off with reality to humble you down. Mine was starting to write this blog, at first I didn't know what to name it, then I didn't know how to start. Then I'd not know what to write, then how often to write. Then set in the paranoia, Oh no! no one's reading my blog! and then now I am at acceptance :) so now with this blog post I'll just save pages from my diary by pouring my heart out here and not be jealous at all of the successful, minor celebrity bloggers reading whose blogs I spent the whole of yesterday. I just couldn't help it... I'm trying to plan my wedding and there was this awesomely apt blog about a girl who shopped in Cal.. given that my sasural is a place I'm going to see first time in my life this month I figured I better do my research well and get some pointers if I could find them and what better place than the very informative google to help me out which promptly pointed me to this blog. Helpful as the blog is.. the comments on the girls every post made me sightly jealous :( and then the mention of another blogger and co worker as a pro at fashion really surprised me. How could it be that someone who spends as much time as I do at the office still find time to so many awesome things while all I do when I'm not in office is to sleep or watch TV or at best be out on lunch and dinner dates (sigh!) and that's when it struck me.. in their own ways they are out stuff which might be helpful to others ( mind you I also found that blog because I was indeed searching for bridal lehengas in Kolkata :P ) as compared to my random blog where the only help anyone would get would be.. umm.. can't even come up with sarcastic insult!!! Man! my blog is really useless.. 

Anywho... now that I'm all humbled down and all ready to shop my heels flat :P I thought I would also start out something which might be helpful to other people... not quite sure what right now... but I'm sure I'll figure out something soon. Till then I'll just use this blog for my dime's worth as a daily/weekly/monthly/yearly whatever diary and if nothing else save some trees :)

So from today on I'll sign off as I used to sign off my diary

Lots of Love
