Why A Blog??

After a sabbatical (quite a long one), I have decided to update my blog a tad bit more regularly. Now the question is why did i start blogging ? For its answer we need to travel a long time back, not very long but just a year back.
A year back, when i was a simple and naive girl (which i still am, but a little less), I shifted from my home to study in one of the most prestigious institutions of our country. I left my home teary eyed but filled with the nervous excitement of one stepping out into the unknown.
My parents left me in the hostel along with 30 other girls. Never in my life have I felt so out of place. The daily fights for the bathroom, rushing for the class, sleeping during lectures all became a daily routine.
I have made very good friends and I have come I contact with different kinds of people. My brother had started blogging a year back. But now here I found that having a blog was the in-thing. I also jumped on to the bandwagon but haven’t been loyal to it.
I like to read other people’s blogs. It opens up a whole new world. The class buffoon may actually be a very serious thinker. Or the happy-go-lucky guy sitting in front of you, may actually be very frustrated.
I hope that I continue writing my blog. May God help me.
