Weekend!!!

Another Weekend!!!
This week there was snow alert...
I was anxiously waiting snow fall to do my best hobby here.
Skiing @ our apartment ski area.
Our ski area is actually a small hill made of grass, but we convert it to our ski area during snowfall...
When snow started I started disturbing Mr.K.V to go out and ski.
But he insisted to finish my household activities particularly cleaning (our Sundays are meant for cleaning) before we go out.
I knew that Mr.K.V won't take me out if I don't complete the stuffs he mentioned.
So I finished off my duties to go out. (It reminded me of a child finishing home work quickly to go out to play).
Around 4.00P.M we went out with our new cam.
Mr.K.V wanted to take snaps with his new cam and I wanted to play with the snow.
When he was busy taking snaps I was busy playing with the snow and skiing....

Some of the snaps with our new cam are posted here.
Have a look at Mr.K.V's photographic skills.

Birth of my blog

These days I'm becoming more lazier.

Afternoons are always boring for me, when Mr.K.V goes back to office after his lunch. I simply waste my time watching some films over the internet or most probably sleeping.

When I discussed about this to my friends over here, one of them suggested of starting a blog.

So my blog has born on this day, the 16th of January 2009, Friday at 2:40 PM.

I don't know whether a lazy fellow like me will continue scribble down anything over here.

Anyways, let’s wait and see.
