. First PoSt .

Behold ! The momentous moment of this blog's history, the first post !

Finally, i've a blog. I've been meaning to do this for quite a while now, ever since a few of my friends started blogging. I always thought blogging was rather pointless, but after giving it some thought it seems that a 'blog' is like an online diary which anyone can just pop open and read, and reading diaries are fun. So anyways, yeah, I just thought "Yeah, why not? What the hecking heck, by george, dear God oh me my goodness gracious lets start a blog!!".
Of course, that all that enthusiasm happened about two months BEFORE i actually started this...but its not as if I've not been doing anything. I have made a list, yes! a list of the pros of blogging and here it goes

The Pros of blOgging. by me :)
1. It makes me look busy
2. I like the sound of keys being pressed
..ermm, thats basically it..but its good enough for meee !

And so there i was, traversing into the unknown realm of blogging, thickets of guesswork, caverns of trial and error, an adventure I say! Of course, this all came to a screeching halt when i met my first obstacle, and its called "How in the name of God on earth and in heaven at the exact same time do I change my font colours?!!?!!11!11one". I was like 'do i have to put a code in or something....' and i actually googled on how to font colour code on blogspot and the reults were of course the immensely complex and complicated-looking html codes. My very first reaction was What the effing eff?? Do i need to learn coding as a prerequisite to blogging?? Not wanting to give up, I asked my friend, at 4 am in the morning, how do i change the font colour...and then right there! At that very moment, as if to mock me, there it was! the button "fonts and colours" was right in front of me. I had wasted 3o minutes of my life looking for something that had been in front of my freaking eyeballs...though i replied with a cool and casual 'oh' to my friend who evetually told me where it is. Thanks Friend.

Then there was the chatbox issue. Knowing full well that no one would probably say anything there, I decided to have one anyways simply because i think it makes the blog look much more professional. I did everything it said, sign up check, username check, password that i wont probably remember check, I have read the rules and agree to follow it with it being the rules checkbox check, and after that I was half expecting it appear automatically on my blogspace/blogarea/whatever its called, which of course it didnt. I was about to ask my friend again when i accidentally clicked a small popup window stating that i received a new email. Hah, from then on, it was a BrEeZe ! So technically, the moral of the story here is, to accomplish something you need to do something and screw it up.
