There's Always More

I've probably forgotten the stuff I wanted to mention here, but oh well. Firstly, without further ado, I would like to thank Thor for awarding me the "Brillante Weblog 2008" badge. My first blog award! :)



The Duties Shall Be Done.



Oh all right. Better now than later (I can't believe that I'm saying this). So now I'm supposed to:

1. Write a post showing that I have won the award, together with the name of who has given it to me, and link them back.

2. Choose a minimum of 7 blogs (or even more) that I find brilliant in their content or design. *sigh*

3. Show their names and links and leave them a comment informing they were prized with ‘Brilliant Weblog’



Okay, so here goes:

I give this award to Nids (though she already has it from Thor), the Nerd, Bharat, Drenched (where are you?), Ishani (if she ever decides to come back...I love reading your stuff, girl!), Ishmeet (like, duh), Koyel , Lemonade, Ramit, Sahil, Shayeri, Sneezy and Vasudha.

Phew. So I can count, and I know that's wayyy more than seven, but I have to be honest, right? :D

Okay, so I think I'll leave messages for them later. That's not cheating, is it?



And oh, FEDERER WON. I didn't leave any stone upturned in my gloating Fed-is-THE-King act. Wait a mo. I don't think I've talked to Sahana about this yet...oh my. FUN!! *runs off to pester aforementioned friend*



*returns*



So she doesn't pick up her phone. Nice.



I have been so crazily busy. Got to go back to work. Ooh, I made a budget. I mean, I *points to self* made a budget. Now is that cool, or what? Of course, my dad reckons I'm being too stingy, but I would use the word practical. Whether it covers all the expenses remains to be seen. And if it doesn't...well, I'm toast.



And the softboard! Okay, take a look. This is only temporary, till I get time to scout around for better stuff.

Bharat Iyer said...

My first award! :D I'd like to thank myself for spewing forth such spectacular crap and for my readers for sifting through it. ^_^ Now I am motivated to spew forth crap on a more regular basis and also leave comments like a nice little crap spewer.

Ooh budget! I never make one. I'm perenially broke, I don't have enough money for a budget. :|

You have a *cough* unhealthy obsession *cough* with Federer. :| :P

little boxes said...

ishmeet said...

Ah, Thenk You so much!

And now for a speech in my typical college fashion:-

Oh ji I would like to thank everybody for giving me this awaard. I would like to ji thank my mummy daddy for birthing me. I would aalso like to thank my internet waala for the internet connection which keeps breaking now and then. Umm, oh ji, I would also like to thank ji Kriti ji faar giving me this awaard. Bonce again, thank you everybody, thank you so much. I lub ju aall.

There, have fun decoding that. :P

FED won! Yes! Finally! Now I can get back to boring everybody with my tennis talk. Go Fed!

You made a budget? YOU made the budget? Where do you get that kind of money? I don't have any money. No paisa, no budget.

And Ooh, softboard looks really nice! I've been planning to do something like that with my room too. But alas, my plans never get implemented. I need to stop being such a lazy ass.

Reema said...

Congrats on getting the award. Softboard looks cool.

Babbitty Rabbitty said...

@nids: Nopes.
And I'm still waiting for you to brighten it up.
@lemonade: Love the quote too...and of course YOU had to get this award!!
@nerd: yeah, yeah. yeah?
@mith: Yes :D And thanks a ton!! :)
@bharat: *gapes at screen*
OMG. Did Bharat just leave a comment?? Wow. Got to 'motivate' you more often, dont we? :P
And I didnt make the budget for myself, silly. I'm not that organised. It was for a huge college event, which is precisely why I'll be screwed if it goes wrong.
And FEDERER RULES :D Didnt you know about my obsession?? Didn't my status messages ever clue you in?
@bedatri: Thankee ^_^
@dang: LOL. It was tremendously easy to decode, btw. And oh, budget not for me :)
@reema: Thanks so much!
@bab: yea, so, I am going to read the stuff on my board. End of story. But yea, I said this is temporary, I'm not gona have all those newspaper articles up forever! Especially the Vampire one, I only put that up coz it kept describing Twilight as this 'horror, bone-chilling saga' thing. Lol.
And, as my brother snootily informed me, SOFTBOARDS DONT HAVE NAMES.

ishmeet said...

Bharat ka comment was smaller than mine, fir bhi usko four lines ka reply, and I get 2. Such atyachaar. I'm not talking to you. Bleh.

Bharat Iyer said...

Arey I got an award, I have to give my accpetance speech na. Even I am not that impolite. :P

More awards are welcome for 'motivation'. :P

Ah, college event. Thou art screwed. :D :P

I found out about the obsession long back, just that I never said anything about it.

Ishmeet: *points and laughs*

Ignore him, he's just trying to garner sympathy. :P

ishmeet said...

Lmao okay, I was trying to garner sympathy alright but if my reply is still smaller than his this time, I'ma really get annoyed. Asli waala.

Vasudha said...

*rubs groggy eyes*
*gapes*

Did I say my name there?
Ooh, thanks! ^.^

Your award's totally warranted though, Reflections is brilliante! :D

Fed is king? Tsk, tsk. You need to pay attention to lyrics. Singhh is Kingggg. :P
[sp?]


[Ugh. Lame.]

Ramit Singal said...

Hi! Thank you for the award :-D Delighted!

Federer is getting back to his former ways now! I hope he'll be back at no. 1 at the end of the year. *Or is it not mathematically possible for him to do so?*
