Whenever I visit my blog, I sit and futilely wonder why I don't blog more often. Why why why? Not only do I enjoy it (whatever little of it that I have done! =P ), but the knowledge that what is a release for you is often likely (maybe) to be appreciated, or at least read and thought about, by others, like-minded or otherwise, is a nice feeling.
I love Srin's blog, as well as Aveek's, Shaapla's and a few others'. They write about things one would actually want to read at the end of the day. And what keeps people going to their blogs to read what they have to say is largely due to the fact that they're all consistent bloggers. Yes, of course, they're immensely enjoyable to read. But, take my blog for example...why would anyone want to keep visiting my blog if he/she saw that for days, weeks and months on end, I posted nothing? Purely from the point of view of another, I'd consider it a waste of time.
Yet, though I come online everyday and do various other things, I always invariably neglect this.
Someone I love told me that, largely, I'm not proactive, I'm reactive. I couldn't agree more.
There are a million things I decide I'll do with a sudden rush of enthusiasm. All gung-ho, ready to go, let's-make-things-happen sort of thing. And then, as you might have guessed, the enthusiasm starts to wane, till it fizzles out, and I'm left thinking "achha chuck it, pore hobe". The only thing is that, pore hoye na.
College begins from tomorrow. Jadavpur University, Comparative Literature. Rohan told me I'll hate the daily commute. Especially since, for 13-14 years, all I had to do to get to school/college from home, was to walk for half a minute across the street =)
The Experience begins from tomorrow =)
Its time to be "proactive".
Good luck to me.

Actually with the google reader tool you don't have to keep going back to anybody's blog to see if they have updated it. it just pops like like mail in your inbox. =P
You'll like JU, everybody does, i liked going there to meet my friends, even though i never studied there. Jodio the commute is bad, Jadavpur is a terrible place, but once you learn to manipulate the autos its not that bad. =)
