Desi Blog of the Day: Deep Thought by TGFI

Today’s Desi Blog of the Day is Deep Thought by TGFI.

Here’s TGFI on herself –

TGFI is a Ph.D student, chronic procrastinator and risk-taker. Right now, her life revolves around lab, and getting that elusive Ph.D. She loves science, Bombay, people who laugh, cribbing about grad school life, arguing about women’s lib, drunken revelry and cute salsa partners.

(which reminds me that the post which had me hooked to her blog also involved a drunken night out with the girls, and much laughter, and maybe even some roadside singing. URL please Thank you, TGFI!)

Here’s TGFI on her blog –

Her blog is a personal diary with snippets about her life. Initially very skeptical about such a thing as baring your soul on the www, TGFI has gotten hooked onto blogging as a venting board and enjoys the camaraderie, sharing of thoughts and the several blog-friendships that came out of it. Her biggest nightmare is her blog being “found” by people she knows in real life and she blogs in that fear, constantly.

I’m sure all you anonymous personal bloggers have dealt with that dichotomy too – the joy of finding friends in strangers and the fear of being found by friends.

Here are three reasons why I love TGFI’s blog –

- She writes with an infectious sense of humor.
- She never shies away from an argument.
- She has one of the coolest Blogger templates I have ever seen.

Here are a few of TGFI’s favorite posts -

- TGFI remembers her first car, Candy.
- Why TGFI doesn’t listen to her MP3 player on the bus anymore.
- TGFI’s dreams of meeting Stephen Hawking and James Watson, and then does (which reminds me of my own dreams, all thirty of them!)

My tip to TGFI: A “best posts” section on the sidebar, maybe?

  • @TGFI: Corrected. Silly silly me. I'm still toying with many ideas for the series, including the category idea. I'll probably try out version 2 for a week before I move on to version 3.

    @Biby: Many thanks. I had a quick look at your blog. Will be back for more.
  • Nice post, its a really cool blog that you have here, i like the way you present things, keep up the good work, will be back.

    Expect more from you...

    Warm Regards

  • 1) Thanks for featuring my blog, Gaurav.

    2) Kill me for being nit-picky, but it's Deep_Thought.(singular)
    (i know, i am an ingrate!) :p

    3) Here's my suggestions for this series
    First off, nice idea :)
    Also, it'd be nice if you could categorize them- I guess the blogger would tell us in his/her bio, what kind of a blog it is, but it'd be nice if your post is also appropriately labeled (personal blog, topical blog, etc.)

    I'll let you know if I think of anymore :)
