What a day, in other words, Wordpress or Blogger

What a day. Serene. Beautiful. Just can't refrain myself from typing a few lines.

In the morning, my sister prepared a hot and sour chicken soup for me. It was so spicy, that simply the fumes from it could probably burn a paper. But once she cooks something for me, I must have it. That's what the deal is. Besides, I just can't disappoint her. So, I had it, managing a smile on my face, and also, nodding in appreciation. I saw the love which was served along with it, and, hopefully, nobody saw the smoke that was coming out of my ears.

Then, while taking bath, I applied this mixture of shikakai and I don't know what all other things, on my hair, as a part of my persistent duel with dandruff. A bit of that mixture oozed into my eyes. If I had to wash my eyes with either this mixture or the soup that I had in the morning, I would have chosen the soup. After a frantic effort to wash the eyes, everything looked ok to me. I could see everything, and that was a strong indication of both the eyeballs being in the respective sockets. But, alas, my eyes had turned red.

I switched on the TV hoping to see a good mallu movie, and tuned into the mallu channels. There, they had this superhit movie, which was featuring in the mini screen, for the first time, as they said it. But I had seen the movie four times, in the same channel.

I switched on the computer, which was the last asylum. Opened my blogger account. Decided to check the newly introduced 'stats' section in Blogger. Got encouraged, seeing that my blog has got a total of 862 pageviews till now. For a moment only. Very soon, realised that 600 of those pageviews could be mine itself, and got discouraged by the same amount or more, by which I had got encouraged, earlier. I dug into further details, and had a look at the search terms by which people found my blog, in Google. The top two entries were these.

1. Mayanti Langer cleavage
2. Grand mathur fucking

Aha. What is this, a porn blog? The first search had this post as a result. I had written a review of the book, 'Inscrutible Americans' by Anurag Mathur, long back. The second search had that post as a result. Aargh!

So what a day it was! Agree, folks?

But apart from all that, I want to tell you something. I have started to think about the future of this blog. I created this blogger account, two years ago, while I was in college. Purpose was to write a story or rather an exaggerated description of a funny incident that happened during a lab exam, in the class blog. Then, wrote a couple of similar posts there, about some other incidents. Writing felt nice, and I started posting in this blog. I enjoyed writing, and it helped me learn, considering the fact that I had studied in Malayalam medium schools, till tenth.

There are two types of posts, here. First one, which are inspired by the incidents in my life, and also, random updates about my life.

Second, inspired by the stuff that I read. Mostly current affairs.

Over the time, I have learned that I enjoyed writing things that belong to the first group. All my friends who were forced to read, acted like enjoying, the same posts. So, I will not write anything about current affairs, from now on. And yea, none of the National and International leaders seem to care. So why would I give them more valuable inputs? Let them sort things out on their own.

Now, the next thought is whether to continue posting here, or shift somewhere else. All the embaressing things that happen in my life, always made nice posts. So, if I were anonymous, I could write more freely. Thinking. Suggestions invited.

Is Wordpress better than Blogger? In case I am shifting. Where? Again, suggestions invited.

Anyways, a few changes are on the cards. And in the meantime, I have loads of other work to complete. Adios, for now.

Rub some lemon on your scalp, keep it for say 15 minutes and wash it off. Its an effective cure for dandruff :)

Thankyou for the tip. Will try it if needed. But for the moment, the shikakai thing seems to have done the job. Don't know for how many days the effect lasts :)

And you know what happened to the one who tried to remain anon :P
Another tip on WP site stats... doesn't count your own visits to the blog( based on ip address/wp login I guess)
Trust me these keywords thing is hilarious. My max hits come from searches for Mallu auntie.

Oh yea :) But I liked the mysterious nature of Aliyah. At first, I thought you were a boy, coz 'Aliya' is how mallu boys address each other, informally. :)

Now, I see that such an option is there in Blogger also. Anyways, for the moment, I have decided to keep posting here.

Lol. That makes me feel better :)
