I was constantly hunting for a new cool blog template… not that I didn’t like my old one…its just that I wanted give my blog a different and yet a very stylish look…something that would send new, good, positive vibes to me and my readers.
I guess I’ve finally found one, this template has everything I was looking for, it allows me to customize my widgets and keep as many as I want; moreover it gives all of them a unique look.
Besides letting me retain my old sidebar with a different look, the template has a lot more to offer.
*Search: it’s placed right on the top and any of my posts can be searched by their name (although the –home, about & archives don’t work)
*The diary look of the post section gives it an interestingly realistic feel (that’s one of the main reasons why I selected it), Every time I see it I feel like writing something in it.
*My sidebar is divided into 3 parts each having every different and yet related themes. When any widget is added in any of the parts, it inherits the theme of that particular part!
-‘Recent post’ is the 1st part on my side bar, dressed in yellow and attached to the diary with a U clip, it lists the recent 15 posts
-‘Categories’ makes the middle section of my sidebar and is the second part, that is nailed on the diary by a paper pin, it has a background of a grey paper and looks really classy…it arranges all my posts on the basis of the label tagged on them! recent comments and the followers widget placed in that section of the sidebar inherit its properties.
-The 3rd part is a black and white section, the bottom part of the sidebar… its called ‘Friends and Links’ which carries the about me and my blog list widget! it has a scribbled look (this part appears nicely in IE)
Overall I am kinda satisfied with this template… hope you’ll like it too :-)

..on a rainy day...
When the dark clouds cover the earth
When the rain pours down with thunder
When the aroma of clay fills the air
When the chill breeze beings to wonder
When students get offs from their ABC
and the others cant stop cursing the BMC
When the rails and the roads go for a toss
When news becomes more important than big boss
When couples flood Bandstand and
While others come to take a glimpse of the high tide
Some feast on their corn, some feast their eyes on each other
Some prefer bhajias and chai, some just a chat together
When rainbows and singing birds light up the dull day
When bright colorful umbrellas highlight the way
When the weather turns so pleasant …so lovely
I lie flat in my bed .....I yawn ...I feel so sleepy

GETTING INVISIBLE FOR AN INTERVIEW!
Dickson Miranda had officially completed his hardware and networking course from a well known institute and was sent by his placement department to XYZ Company for an interview! …so there I was! I reached the Company to see how his interview goes! hmmm well it was not difficult to find him in the crowd... He’s hair completely drenched in oil would be combed sideways, left partition to be precise, as often he would be wearing a self colored shirt buttoned to the top with a matching tie, two pens, black and blue… in his shirt pocket, big round spectacles above his nose… and his nose always pointing in the direction where the girls were. (Yeah his nose is like this mini gps) Oh! There he was!!! Sitting amongst the candidates and checking out the receptionist from the corner of his eyes. Hmmm now talking about the receptionist… ah… she was not bad at all … Tall, well tanned, nice and curvy, long hair till her shoulders, sleeveless blue top that looked just perfect, black skirt, long legs…wow! … I mean if you didn’t notice a girl like her, you really would be a …. “DICK! …You may go in” my thoughts were interrupted by someone…. Shit did he hear me? … Actually he was just asking our friend Dickson to get in the cabin for the interview!... uff!.. Sometimes I really think people can read my mind!...sigh!! Anyways a nervous Dickson and an invisible me started approaching the cabin for our interview, rather his interview….
On our way Dickson decided to enlighten the gentleman who called out to him saying, “its DickSON… not dick” … the man gave him a ‘do-I-look-like-I-care?’ Look and continued with his work…
Knock knock!
Come in said a female voice… dick and I entered… and I fainted instantly…
In front of me was the hottest female I had ever seen …10 times hotter than the receptionist!! Oh! Holy lord! ... the name of this company should have been XXX instead of XYZ!! It’s a treat to work here! … Still mesmerized I did enough to stand myself on my feet.. you see this is a big advantage of being invisible, you can check out the hottest chick and faint anywhere in the world without getting noticed!
liza: (pulling her hand away) "may i see your resume 
?"
dick: "
