Breaking The Silence

Must….move…fin…G…E…R…S!!

There, I did it!

Putting up a post after a long blogging break is harder than I thought. It’s been over a month since my last post. I blame it on a combination of work commitments, illnesses, and my inherent laziness. The work commitments have been dealt with, and I’ve managed to recover from the illness. Essentially, I’m quite jobless and in the pink of health once again, and what am I left with? Laziness! I can stare at the computer screen for hours, occasionally glancing down at the keyboard, almost willing it to type something on its own, but for the longest time, I couldn't get around to typing anything. Mind you, its not like my life has been extremely boring or anything. It’s been quite good, in fact. But before April gives way to May, I’d better publish this post.

It’s Thursday, the 13th of April. Someone just wished me a Happy New Year. Apparently it’s Tamil New Year tomorrow. Iniya Putthandhu Vazhthukal and all that! But over here in Melbourne, everybody’s busy getting into the Easter spirit. Speaking of which, I just had some Hot Cross Buns. But all I can think of today is the Stones concert. Tonight’s the night. I spent heaps of money on the ticket, and it had better be worth it, otherwise old Mick is going to lose a fan.

I’ve realised that most of the posts I write about revolve around music. I’m trying to come up with the underlying theme for this blog. Essentially, it’s about my life, and while music is a big part of my life, I find it rather disturbing that I don’t have much else to write about. I’m hoping to change that with the next few posts. But you never know, I’ll probably just be writing about the concert.

I actually did start writing a post when I was sick. It’s lying somewhere in my Drafts folder, yet unfinished. So that’s going to be put up next, I suppose. The long weekend will come in handy. Who knows, I might even come into the office for a bit, and blog away with reckless abandon! (Yeah, right!)

But until then, I’ve taken the first step. I’ve broken the silence. And for now, have a good Easter, a Happy New Year, and if you’re neither Christian nor Tamil, just shut up and enjoy the long weekend.
