Took me 15 minutes and rs. 1500 to create for myself a regular source of joy... a online library membership. I love books but my favorite libraries are too far away, week days leave me tired and weekends are too busy. So here's the solution to get the books delivered to myself!

15 Posts Past

"I have managed to put up a total of 15 posts already and am updating both my other blogs regularly. But it made me realize there is too much of food in all my posts and not enough books, music or movies. Next week I should do more reading and some studying too!"

Getting 15 to 5!

Spending 15 min everyday on blogging led me to a fun idea of a blog which takes me only 5 min to update and is a personal diary cum gratitude diary cum one line journals rolled into one. Everyday I recount what was the best thing to happen to me, which makes for  a blog which is easy to read, fun and something which will be easy to maintain and wonderful to look back on.

The idea of 15 minutes is to get rid of the initial lethargy we face when starting new stuff. I would say that my first week on blogging has been a success, in fact I am onto the idea of a  new blog filled with my favorite quotes, collecting quote sis on of my favorite activities; so I should enjoy this.
