Its been long since i blogged. I was waiting for me to be the author of a good article. That didn't happen. I met my friend and blogger bud siddharth online the other day, he asked about the sudden recession in activity on my blog site. It was him that pointed out that blogs were never meant to be perfect little articles filled with "le mot juste" as Gustave Flaubert would have said it.
I have been busy with work with the magazine society of our college.I am the person responsible for it. This year we are starting a college wallpaper. That's sort of an open faced magazine. It is supposed to be fortnightly. this i guess will get people to write more often than just before the magazine is coming out!
The process started way back in August. I being a through professional, or at the very least aspiring to be one, wrote letters to the Principal, which he promptly directed to the Academic In-charge of our college. I suppose everything has to go through th Academic In-charge, so that makes it more like Vice-Principal. These letters were to state that according to the wishes of the previous magazine council i am to take charge this year. And another letter suggesting this Wallpaper.
Now we all know how things lie in the office. Days went by, in getting a new council in place, and getting a notice board and approval for the wallpaper. Only after getting the necessary stuff did we go ahead and invite contributions. Now after many weeks of deliberation are we in a position to release our first every issue of Campus BuZz. Thats what we called our little brainchild. Although we are still waiting for a professor to clear out the notice board that was promised to us, which shouldn't take very long...we're nearly there.
This year i guess our job, our meaning this years council, is to lay the foundation for such an activity. because there are only few more weeks left this semester, and about another 10-12 weeks next semester. So maybe next year this will really take off!
Wish us luck!

This is really cool....man forward a copy of the mag when its done....
and yeah wish u all the luck in this endeavour....
actually i also wanna do something like this here at bioinformatics centre but somehow i dont think people will want to contribute.... sadly!!!
Ne-ways.....Cheers!!!!!
the success or failure of such a project is not a reflection of how much effort u have put in...it does very much reflect the college as a whole. so u start it...dont worry about who will or will not contribute.
exactly buddy...it reflects the college as a whole and from whatever i observe i very much doubt if i'll get any contribution at all...!!!... :-(
excellent, any idea where i can mail my articles off 2? cause the google group you pointed out is kind of inactive.
