Happy birthday, dear blog! :)

MY BLOG TURNS ONE TODAY!!!! Yippppeeeee!!!

A wish I had since class X finally got fulfilled a year back when I posted for the first time. I had started the same day a whole year back…a day when my lovable computer would come to me only ten days later; I was patiently typing out something I had written some months ago in my hostel computer room.

My first comment was from Twin-Gemini, and I was surprised and shocked at how someone totally unknown to me had found my blog; and I had no clue what to do with the comment until one day he commented asking why I haven’t replied for his comment. And that’s when the whole business actually became clear. ;) Thanks, Twin-Gemini!!

There are many things I wish I had never written on my blog; but I want to keep them….probably they show how I’ve grown through that one year, and how what I choose to blog about has changed!

The few on my blog who’ve been around ever since I began, whom I wish to thank a lot: my sister, Anu, Sandhya and Harish. Thanks, people! :)

Thanks ALL of you who have visited my blog and continue to do so. :) Your comments have seriously inspired me to actually think if I can someday publish my work. And it’s become a sort of dream now, and I know I’ll make it someday, sometime.

And P.S.: About my previous post: it’s nothing highly philosophical – I just felt that life would change…again, since I came back to university!! :)
