Indian Cricket Team after World Cup 2007 Aseem N wrote this at 2:05 pm • Filed under WOW, Sports •

After India has been shown the back door in this world cup, I have been enjoying a lot of funny sms jokes and email forwards on the Indian Cricket Team. Along with me many cricket fans are expressing their grief with comedy. As for the players themselves, they may not find any of it funny.

Here is one email forward that is making rounds on the net… :P

Happy Birthday to Me! Aseem N wrote this at 8:52 am • Filed under I, Me and Myself •

This is Aseem… a little different than a few hours ago, 21 now! I dont really feel like old. But I know I am slowly getting there. When I was small my reference for being old was teens, got to the teens and then thought 20s should be fine to be called old enough. Now got to 21 and I can still feel a kid in me. Being old is yet so very far! And everytime I make it to what I felt was the age to call mature and responsible my reference changes. :P

Right from my days in KG to my 12th exams, I have never ever got a chance to celebrate my birthday. Everytime without fail my final exams for the academic year would coincide with my birthday :( . But am happy its not the same in engineering. Exams are a way ahead :) . So I can just have a nice time with family or hangout with some close frenz. Planning to do the same today :). Hmm… looks like a busy day too. Been receiving calls right from midnight and I have just lost count of all of them :p. Orkut scraps on a birthday are like a supernova explosion….. have loads to reply to! Also there is this most important match of the world cup for India today (in which India is not playing) Bermuda Vs Bangladesh. Indian team… I know you are good for nuts, so please dont waste more of our time, pray that Bangladesh(the deserving winners against you) win. And all those bookies please dont fix this match with Bangladesh. Let the Indian team be kicked out of World Cup today, that will be a perfect birthday gift for me.

So what am I gifting myself on this birthday? hehe… yea actually had plans to redesign this blog, but kinda got so busy with websites and college last few days that I just didnt get the time to. Fast forward another 2 weeks and I should be free to start working on a new blog design. Just one of those little ways to keep me up for blogging. Have been down all last month :(. Need to give it some life back.

Hey there my cellphone is ringing again… My first love my Nokia 3315. I call it N-3315! :P

Xoom – Send money to India Aseem N wrote this at 5:54 pm • Filed under General •

All my online transactions have been through Paypal. But disappointingly, everytime I decide to withdraw, it takes about 15-20 days for me to receive the cheque from Paypal, and another 10-15 days for the money to be deposited to my account as Citibank (Bank partnered with paypal for this) is not available in Goa.

This time, I wanted to withdraw some 1XXX USD from my paypal account. I logged in to paypal and realised that my monthly withdrawal limit showed 0.00 USD from 2,500.00 USD 8O. Uh! Now what was that! So immediately contacted paypal via email. Paypal popular at sucking customer support, I knew I will be made to wait for a week atleast to get a response. So I switched to Google about this issue. Found a post on DP. This limit has been imposed on all Verified Indian Paypal members while most of the accounts with 500.00 USD limit. Ofcourse I could not wait for the issue to be resolved as no one had any idea about it.

Rising from the ashes… Aseem N wrote this at 11:42 pm • Filed under I, Me and Myself, General •

No fire… not charred… no ashes… but just getting back to life that I felt like lost all last month… out of the grave now and back to blogging. Last 30 days were full of Khatta-Meetha experiences. Some I don’t want to remember, some I can’t forget. But I am glad that this pretty long sabbatical from blogging is finally over… or rather partially maybe. Only time will unfold. Don’t know if I was off blogging because I was a little more busy than usual or it was that nothing came to my lazy head.

As JohnTP put it “Every blogger stops blogging once in a while…” in his post Do You Apologize to your readers for not blogging.

An apology has to fight the inner ego first, that no blogger would confess of having. But be a dedicated blog reader of a blog, and you will know how frustrating it is if you don’t see a new post when you log on to the site for more than a week. So here it is… battling my inner ego (If you thought I was too humble to have one. Your wrong, I do!) let me put it in the most modest way possible:

“I am really sorry for not blogging all last month”.

I can’t draw any good things out of this break… though my blog traffic has somehow increased and so has the Google Adsense earning (however meager it might be). Should have been the other way round eh?

Hmm… Anyways lets not get into the past now. The saffron skies tell me it’s a new fresh day, calling me out to fly… fly high into the boundless space (afterall I am Aseem - without boundaries). Just keeping my fingers crossed that I am not facing west…
