Keeping it Simple.....

Writing blogs is never easy. And I realised this as soon as I got down to creating my account, where I experienced my first major hurdle-What should be the title of my blog?. Now this was a real toughie. After all,isn't that the first thing people see in a blog? The title of my blog had to be catchy and fun! It should make people want to read my blog. I strained my grey cells trying to figure out a name, and to say the least, came up with absolute crap!
My first thought? 'The Diary of Aditya Gaitonde'. Naah! Can't be,I told myself. It looked hopelessly inspired and would seem more like an account of my trials and tribulations while dealing with my 'Hitleresque' friends and professors.
Hours after pondering(Mostly,during my exams) over this seemingly stupid question, I finally came up with a gem.'Gai's Meadow'.After all this blog was my stomping ground.I could write whatever I wanted.Just as a cow can do what it wants on a meadow.Pleased as a punch with my imagination but still unsure (as I always am!) about the name, I asked a friend."Dude, Don't keep self-depreacatory names.", he retorted. Yeah Right! What a fool I was! This was not even remotely funny.Thank God(If he exists), I took his opinion.

Cursing my lack of imagination, I finally decided to give up. May be, I should just keep it simple and straight.And so then you have 'Gai's blog'. I know the name is boring and insipid.But that's the best thing I can come up with and my safest bet for now.If you guys have better ideas, then please let me know.Your suggestions are always welcome.
