Oh yeah, I can also say that I am a very busy person. And that's the excuse most of the people make to be saved from working. Blogging is also a work, na? So to be saved from doing this work, I am making the excuse of being busy.
Now blogging actually takes a lot of effort - turn on the computer, connect to the Internet, type without looking at the keyboard, take some pictures of Bollywood stars and then click on Publish! Really, a LOT of effort ;-)
A day consists of 16 hours (I know it consists 24 hours, but 8 hours are for sleeping). Out of those 16 hours, 8 are spent on working. And the left 8 hours are spent on watching movies, listening to new songs, practising singing (as a music learner). One hardly gets time to blog in the leisure. The biggest panga (problem) is that I have a Bollywood blog - because Bollywood blogs need great maintenance. I need to capture snapshots, videos and then post them here!
And now I have Garam Masala review to be done. But I am, currently, too lazy to type about the film's story and actors. I hope I can complete and publish the review in a week (or two!). On the other hand, I have Classically Mild's translations also.
I didn't mean I don't enjoy writing here, but the effort involved in it is too much for a lazy dog like myself. Can't there be an easier way of blogging, like just think something in your mind, and that's automatically typed and published!

What I am doing these holidays
Ah, this is the holiday season for me. And I am enjoying the change in the season - from winter to summer. It's good to see the sun getting hotter and hotter day by day (it'll be better if the sun gets hottest, so that I can sleep under the AC!). Most of the students these days are busy in their exams, parents are busy in their office work and I am busy to find a thing that can keep me busy :)
Well here are somethings I found which succeded in keeping me busy:
Blog: Although, I am not updating it with a good speed, but still it's keeping me busy for sometime (like now). I'll write whenever I want to, otherwise Blogging will seem like a punishment to write everyday, and it'll burst my holidays too.
YouTube: Yup, actually this little (?) site is keeping me busy for hours. I watch Sonu Niigaam's videos and other singers' performances to keep my singing spirit up.
Music Learning: I've started learning Classical Music (Indian) from my Guruji. And I hope it will always be interesting while keeping me busy. Music flows in my blood, actually. In fact, one day I shall be struggling in Bombay (aka Mumbai) to become a playback singer. And one day, I WILL BE a playback singer - note it!
Aamir's Blog: Yeah, Aamir Khan is back on his Blog with updates. I'll spend sometime reading his blogs and commenting there while hoping that I can get a response (I've never gotten one).
So Happy Holidays to myself! I'll be back here within a week with something new.

Celebrity Blogging
We all know that celebrity blogs are some of the most popular sites on the net. The celebrities use their blogs to discuss and promote their films. And the most popular blogs are of Amitabh Bachchan and Aamir Khan. They've used their sites to promote their upcoming films, and now some other celebrities, inspired by the two, have started their own sites.
The first name is Lara Dutta, who recently started her own site: http://mylaradutta.com/, which she told that will contain news, gossip and stories about her and her films. And inspired by Lara, another person coming in the net world is Celina Jaitley, whom you can find at http://mycelinajaitley.com/. Kareena Kapoor was about to start her very own site, but because of some problem, it got delayed.
Now that's not the point of my post. The point is - all the celebrities use their blogs just to promote their films, not to interact with the fans or to make some friends. Aamir remembers of his blog when his film is about to release. He wrote many posts on the release of Taare Zameen Par as well as Ghajini. But after that, he was just disappeared from his site.
Karan Johar also owns a blog. You can visit his blog and see the updates - the last one was in November. He is, perhaps, busy in the production/direction of My Name Is Khan. I am sure when the film will be releasing, he'll suddenly come back with, "Oh, I am sorry for not blogging for quite a while"! When Dostana was released, Karan wrote a long ('long' did I say?) post on it. And one excerpt:
The “Dostana” website is up (http://www.dostanathefilm.com) and can also be linked via the main Dharma Productions website. Also, the music released today. Again I would love to hear what you think of the soundtrack once you give it a listen.
All actors say they don't use their sites in marketing, but their saying is not the truth, is it? These were, of course, my thoughts. But I'd like to know yours; what do you think about celebrity blogging?
