hai all

This is my first post. Well, this is my first time in blogging. I heard of blogs but dint try to know much about it. When Jayasree ma'm asked us to create a blog of our class and to be regular contributers, I was a bit doubtful as its new to me. I am not a poet, so dont have any poems to post. Am not a short story writer and also dont have any articles of my own. So what should I post here? That was what immediately come to my mind. [I know it is a very silly thought] I took literature as my subject coz i found life in it which i dint find in science subjects which i had opted for my +2. Today I can tell u confidently that I was right in my decision. I did BA in Mar Ivanios and then came to Institute Of English to be a part of this prestigious institution. At first the syllabus put me into great trouble. I dint expect such a hectic schedule for MA. Now [I think] am adjusted with the system. I confronted with lots of novelties- seminars, extension lectures, and the list goes on.

Today’s lecture on history of our mother land and the social life prevailed here long back was really great. At the same time it was thought provoking too as far as am concerned. Keeping myself within the syllabus and reading the contemporary literature, I totally neglected the history of my land. I never tried to know about it. I think such a comparative study of the histories should be included in the syllabus. Am looking forward to lots more sessions like this.

I always used to come across articles on blogging but did not know what it was all about. Then one fine day one of my friends Pooja "enlightened" me about it. But even then I was reluctant to start a blog on my own. It was actually a shame for me , my brother who is four years younger than me had two blog accounts to his credit which he regularly updated. The day finally came when our teacher actually asked us to start a class blog as part of our syllabus. I could'nt believe my ears!!!!! Did the teacher actually ask us to start blogging. ( I still don't know why that amazed me so much). But I was waiting for some one else to start the blog. So the day I got Devu's message asking me to be a contributor for the class blog, I finally had to leave my lethargy behind me and start blogging. But what would I blog about? I thought and thought and spend one day thinking. Was my life so uneventful that I could not find a single event worth sharing with others. After much deliberations I came up with some thing which is there for all of you to see. It is definitely not a master piece or anything but after I posted the blog I felt so happy. But then again another long hiatus. It was not the problem of lack of time  but it was the problem of finding an issue to write on. My writing skills had gone so rusty in the last three years. So I guess this is the problem with you guys too. But I request you guys to get over that complacency and come up with posts.  Please, please and please.......

Don't let our class blog to fade into oblivion!!!!!!!!!!
