Just another drop in the sea

What started out as a half-hearted substitute to diary writing now has successfully gotten its 50th entry. Yes. This very blog you are reading is 50 posts old. 50 baby!!! Now that is a milestone. I have to congratulate myself for this. :D

There you have it! Evidence...

I had no particular topic in mind for this post. So, to kill boredom( because I did not feel like sleeping. It is 10 30 PM)and to get this milestone under my belt, I decided "Why not thank all the people who took pains (LOL) to visit this blog and read each post that this screwed up brain could think of? " Not only that but also they had the time to comment. So here goes......My tribute to THE PASSERBYs ( in no particular order)

#1 : Uttara

The person who sowed the seed in my brain. The seed, which later developed into this thirst for blogging. Her blogs are unbelievably long, yet captivating. My benchmate during 4th and 5th, and a city-mate now (!), it has been a wonderful ride with her on board. Known for her brain and cheek even then! An enigma.Keep em' coming pal!

#2 : Shreyas Krishna

The person in whom I re-instilled the interest of blogging. This fellow had already had a blog but forgotten the password. This is exactly what he had commented.....
"He he he...If one can post crap like this, why shouldn't I start a blog!!" ( Referring to my earliest posts, which were..total crap). I've just got to know him better and blogging is a part of the thread that holds us together, other parts being coffee, music, cars, bikes, yahoo! pool, graffiti, etc.....Cheers mate!

#3 : Nithya (Siva) Shankar

Actually I don't know what her exact name is because I guess she has changed it. Really great pal. Got a lot of stuff in her brain. I think that's what makes her eyes bulge out a bit. lol. Awesome vocabulary she has got. Her poems always make me realise the dufus in me! Her blogs are one of a kind. So is she- one of a kind. Great to have met ya Nith!! Rock on _ _ (you know what this is!!!)

#4 : Shivram

Now what can I say. The guy with the "I don't give a fuck " attitude. Recently joined the bloggers fray. Pretty lazy at blogging I should say. But by his usual standards, his posting skills are lightning fast! Great pal. We resonate quite well. Hellzhole's asshole-in-chief! A pulsar is waiting on the wings for him too. Well there you have it. ma man Shiva!

#5 : Madhavan Ravi

The guy who spares some time from his supposedly busy schedule to sneak a peek occasionally at this idle mind. I can't blame him. He's got his masters degree to get! Well for all those who don't know- Madhavan Ravi is Sharanyan Ravi's brother. Not seen him in a lot of time. Thank you brotha !!!

#6 : Annette Thomas

A.K.A gravity. College senior. Techmusic judge. Rocking singer. Talented poetess. Rookie sketcher. Well there you have it. In a nutshell. Her taste in movies match mine a lot. Se prefers not be called one but she is a major padips. Keep the snide comments coming 'nette!!

#7 : Surya Krishna

Chief golti of the gang. The man with the "Hell! who cares " attitude. My recent friend but a really good one. We live on the same street. His time-to -time mokkais are really painful but he does that only to break the silence. Champion comedian. And the king of ab-crunches. Waiting for his blog to receive the first meaningful post. Rock on pal!

#8 : Shri Hari

The leader of our makeshift CS team. Awesome guy. His camera rocks. One of my other recent friends. Chuchu makes him squirm! Partners in crme at uit, cibi fraud ( HE HE ), Morning college bus missers.. etc etc. Awaiting his blog too. Pottukko machaan!

#9 : Athos
This isn't his original name I guess. He is supposed to be my college senior but I don't know him. But I sure can say one thing. His poems are one of a kind. HIs skills at photography are cool too. One of my blog pals. See in what ways blogging helps one! Nice guy. Cheerio!
#10 : Venki ( Geek Almighty)

Another very recent blog pal. Tech geek I should say from what I have gathered up to date. All his posts are wacky, original and creative. His blog looks cool, pimped up and all. Would be great if all bloggers unite one day. Hmm. Lemme keep dreaming.
#11 : Vaishnavi and upasana

I don't know if these two people read all my posts but they do visit this page once in a BLUE moon. Their lazy asses aren't so lazy after all but lazy enough not to comment. One's a cousin and the other indulges in cuisine! Rock on girls!
#12 : College pals

Mary --> for your verbal comments at college after reading the blog at home
ET ---> For your occasional visits to this page with your busy dating and what not.
Niveditha ---> For all the page visits and the one comment.
Prahaas---->I just found today he reads my page !!!
Ganesa---> One of my best pals in college.

#13 : Meera

Ah. The one who read all my post but got the nerve to comment only after the 40th one. Believe me this girl said she was scared of me till 12th standard. What! Did I have horns and had a blue tongue or something? Anyways, Pals forever!
#14 : The others

The title "the others " do not make these readers any less important. Karthik, Govind, Gautam, etc.. these people atleast had the patience to visit my page of yarns! Thanks y'all.

#15 : Mystery Men (& Women)

All those who without my knowledge visit my blog. Thank you.

Phew..That was some hard work. Only now I can see I actually have a sizable number of readers. I'm honored! Thank ye one and all!
