Names

Names are hard. I always have a tough time naming things. What will happen if I have to name living beings?! How fun would it be to have a nameless dog!

I am also having a tough time naming sections of my college magazine these days. Any suggestions for a non-technical, non-news section having 'fun' and editorial articles?

Anyway, I finally changed the name of my blog. I was planning to do it for quite some time along with changing the design. I updated the design in an hour and the name in months. Tweaking templates is so much easier than naming.

I changed the name because "Knowing, Doing and Happening" just wasn't doing it for me anymore. So, after some soul and drafts searching, I decided to name it "Random Plans". It makes things more clear about the way I (t)roll. Also updated is the sub-heading and 'About Me' page.

Psst- For people who have added me in the Blogger blogrolls, please spare a few seconds and update the name by removing and adding my blog. Blogger has this weird thing where it doesn't update names automatically.

My First Blog Post

Finally!!! I have been wanting to start a blog for so long now. Now finally after starting and shutting a couple of blogs, here is my attempt to blog again. I have nothing in particular to write today as thinking of a name already sucked up my brain of any words. Its a dead-end for now on a name.

Different people have different aims with blogs, some write for a project, news, technology, art, then there are DIY blogs, recipe blogs, personal diaries, and so on. I don't have a specific purpose, I just want to write what I feel like. It may seem pretty random at times but that's the way it is. It's not completely useless as I do have a motive, I want to read what I thought. I want to smile, be embarrassed, laugh, be proud of, just want to see what I wrote after a period of time. Its always fun to do that.

As for shutting down again, I am pretty optimistic that it won't happen this time. I have set a VERY ambitious goal of writing at least one post a week(weekend most probably), so lets see how that goes. Also I have bought my own domain(apoorvnarang.com), so I don't want to waste it. I am also exploring the fun options of owning your own domain name on the world wide web.

As for life, there are big things and changes lined up ahead for me. Its an exciting turning point. Lets see what happens next. I have a few things to post and discuss and will try to keep a good frequency at least till my college starts. Pretty obvious but important to say, comments are not just welcomed but highly encouraged. It is important for a blogger to know what people feel when they read your blog posts. So just blurt out what you want.

I know starting a blog is not that big of a deal but still it requires some push to commit to something. So I'll thank some known people first for encouraging and supporting me like Karan(looking forward to your upcoming blog), Bhavna Didi(hoping you will at least let me read your blog now), and all close friends for suggesting and helping with stuff. More importantly I am glad to read some blogs of people I know less which inspired me to start including vivekn.net, woikr.com, ankurb.info, Jitu's blog and many more.

I thought I'd end with a qoute or so but couldn't find one today. Yeah, the blog is incomplete. But I had to start it on 11th July, I like the date too much.
