Contractor

I guess this should have been my first post in this blog, but what the fuck? This post is so that YOU get know a little about ME. I was born on the 27th of January,1995 in New Delhi. I have been brought up in New Delhi. Now, Im 16 and a half and im a student of D.P.S R.K.Puram studying in class XI. Over the years, I have achieved various things that I am proud of, and well - Done a LOT of stupid things, some make me laugh and I still repent for some of them. I have been playing guitar for the past 4years. My life changed since I picked up the guitar back in July of 2007. I can play the Guitar, the Bass and well just basic drums. :P Before guitar, I used to actually sing - But lack of practice really spoilt my voice and now Im more of a backing vocalist. I currently play in 3 bands - I play bass for Penguin Park. I play guitar in Katai Bum and Drop. Elsewhere, I keep working on my solo project as well, playing bass and guitar. I have also now learnt how to mix and produce music. I just do it on my own right now for the music of my bands, but I want to start recording other bands and helping upcoming bands in the underground music scene in India.  I am also interested in photography - this comes from my dad. He was my inspiration to picking up the camera and start taking pictures. Ive just started getting more frequent in the past year or so. Ive started clicking gigs, and people are starting to appreciate my work. I am mostly open to all genres of music, but I mainly listen to Metal and Hard Rock (If you dont like these genres, its fine. Just dont say anything to disrespect them, atleast infront of me. Everyone has their own preferences and I totally respect that). My main musical influences are Metallica, Porcupine Tree and Dream Theater. Other influences for eg on my guitar playing are Dimebag Darrell, John Petrucci, Paul Gilbert etc. Generally, I do not like to get into any arguments and I respect everything what the other has to say and I dont really like to mind into other people's businesses. I sort of like being by myself and just be happy with my friends. Im actually really simple, kind of boring. And I think too much. I overthink about everything around me. That often gets me into making weird or rather, risky decisions etc. I have no idea how Im going to conclude this paragraph. :P Well I guess that should do it. For anything else, I am trying to figure out how to get that Ask me any question application on my blog. So when thats up, you can ask me anything you want to and get to know more about me. :D

Why did I start writing blogs? What was the inspiration? 

I just started writing blogs 3 months back in July. I currently have 4 posts and around 330 plus visits on this blog. I started writingblogs because of my best friend. Like a year back or so. I was really in a bad condition. I wouldnt say I was depressed, but I wouldnt even say that I was not. I was really sad. The whole moment was just very dark and unpleasant. Obviously there were things that led me to behave in this way. So one day I was talking to Siddhant (Siddhant Seth) and discussing my problem, he told me to write down whatever I felt, or make a video or do something. After that, whenever I felt bad or anything - I would just open up the notepad on my mac and start writing whatever I felt. At the end, I would analyze it and come to a conclusion. I would try my best to get the better out of it and just try to move on. Then there was this friends' friends blog that I came across. "kuueen" You should go check it out. Kuhu Joshi writes the most realistic and beautiful blogs. After going through some stuff of hers and reading it and relating to it reasily, I thought to myself - "Maybe I should also start writing blogs." And there it was. So one day when I was feeling all emotional and stuff, I just started writing. And the next day I made a blogger account, made a new blog and started posting. Now, the reason i am writing blogs is that I really want to go through what Ive written and try to make something out of it. Another is that I really want to look back to these blogs when I grow up - They will help me remember things of old times and blah blah blah. But the most important thing here is, I feel like sharing my experiences. Someone may actually get some help after reading what Ive written. That was what happened to me when I read Kuhu's blog. And I feel its the connection between the thoughts of people that I like. The last thing, you have all the freedom in the world. You can write about whatever you feel like. Its never planned out, whatever you write is on the spot - x tempo. This brings out your true self. You just simply let out what you have inside - release all the thoughts and emotions that are trapped inside your boned body.

What are my expectations from this blog? 

I just hope that it helps people out in the future in facing various situations and vice versa. I have learnt a lot from blogs, so I think Im just gonna do the same thing - help people learn something. And well, more people read it. :P And thats it I guess. :D
