I begin to Blog....

My first blog. It seems so late that I have entered into the world of blogging, especially when it is a combination of the two things I like a lot; Technology and Writing. I guess there is no one to blame but me and my laziness. Though I have been planning for sometime now to start blogging, I just kept postponing it, telling myself that I will begin once I find a good topic to write about. Mind you I am still far from finding a good topic to write about. It is because I have been stuck at home due to cold and fever that I had A Need to Write!!!! (I know it sounds corny!!!! But I like it!!!!)

Over time I have realized that it is only when I am bored or pressurized, that I want to write. At other times writing is something that comes down the ladder of things that I like to do. I still have to figure out a way so that I can write like normal writers do, i.e, everyday. I have seen my mom write every day for the last 4 to 5 years and am still mystified as to how she does it. There have been times when I saw her write at her desk and came back to my room and sat down to write. But all I have managed at those times is to think about what games I need to play, what movies do I have to watch, about the upcoming football match, etc. etc. The pen and paper have often gone untouched. But when I am under pressure to write something or am forced to come up with something, I have come up with write ups that have managed to even surprise me sometimes.

Coming back to me starting a blog. As I mentioned, I had been thinking about starting a blog for quite sometime. But it took a chat session with my mom to get me to actually start writing. If this is a window to my future in the Journalism industry, I will be getting a stick from the editor, every time I have to come up with an article for the next issue. Ominous signs I would say!!!!

Okay that is it for now. Will follow up with more posts.
Thank You!! Come again!!!
