So here i am, a bit wary cause i have had to hearlong discourses on the menance the net can be(courtesy my parents who incidentally r 2 protective of me).Anyway i decided to take the leap(GOD HELP ME) today on the day my boards are truly behind me.And about my board exams,well to say the least they went better than the gut wrenching,sleep depriving "pre-boards & tests".Am keeping my fingers crossed. that's enough i've decided not to think about you know what till the dreaded day(RESULTS).though i would like to know about the views of those who are reading this on the rsing incidence of suicides among those suffering from exam fever.Though god knows why i didn't suffer from it(maybe it's some genetic defect!).It's saddening as well as a little perplexing weren't their parentsawareof the mental states of these children? How could they thinkthat their lives worth ending for a couple of marks.Hmm.. weird that a few moments back i was worried whether i would appear like a blithering idiot to the readers and won't know what to write. Cause as you can see i started fromone topic and went off in a totally different direction. Maybe the old adage works for blogging too:practice and thou shalt be perfect. Anyway now i really need to catch up on agreat amount of lost sleep and hope this blog was ok for an amateur like me.<FONT color=#9999ff><FONT face="Monotype Corsiva"><STRONG><EM>ADIOS AMIGOS </EM></STRONG></FONT>(P.S.-a really nice,cool wind is blowing near my balcony whichreminds meof a poem i wrote long back but i'll have to unearth it fromthe nethers of my room!) </FONT></FONT><BR></FONT></TD></TR><TR UNSELECTABLE="on" hb_tag="1"><TD style="FONT-SIZE: 1pt" height=1 UNSELECTABLE="on"><DIV id=hotbar_promo><FONT color=#cc66cc></FONT></DIV></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></BLOCKQUOTE><br><img src="http://ri.rediffiland.com/homepimages/home6/656/2fa3e640a60ba0e4ab98f163c11302cf/homep/images/1206052847">]]></description><pubDate>Fri, 21 Mar 2008 04:14:50 +0530</pubDate><link>http://lovebooks.rediffiland.com/blogs/2008/03/21/MY-VERY-FIRST-BLOG-1.html</link></item></channel></rss>
