It all started with a challenge to write a blog better than a batchmate's blog, and after lot of full stops in my journey, I'm equally surprised as Mads is, to have managed to reach the 100 mark.
I would like to thank that batchmate firstly for gleefully putting me down right in my 1st semester, which really got Mads going to have me in the first place. I would like to thank Alex Paul (one of my first ever readers who still bothers to read me when he has time), Prabhu Dutta Das (for writing comments which I never understood), Nidhi (one of my best blogger friends today.

I'll admit, Mads Mad Mess has lost its sheen since it's started and some depressing posts started popping up and I guess it gets tiring for readers too to read cribbing posts. Bring in 2010! Mads Mad Mess has just finished his warm up (My blog is a MALE called Brian. Sweet name naa? All my diaries and my blog are Brians!) Let this blog get started now :P
