I had a deal yesterday with Sean. That was a deal with my website dealsinsured.com. What I like about the deal is not the money in the deal, but the way we did it. He looks to me a nice person and I feel happy to be a person who knows him. We contacted each other through email as there was some problem with the network connection in the phone connection. Unlike other deals that I had earlier, we didn’t take much time in the deal and our communication didn’t end just after the deal. He comes straight, and speaks to the point, returns messages straight in a short time, and looks like a great businessman, when it comes to business. Thats what I like. Thats why I am Posting it here. This is the first time I have posted about a deal in my personal website (I didn’t feel like posting any of the earlier deals even though I have got more money earlier in some of the deals). I am hoping that we would do more deals in the near future.

I met eche Shanti(Thokchom Shanti) for the first time in orkut. Well, I have heard about eche long before in e-pao.net. She stays in USA presently. I met eche for the first time in orkut when I joined the Thokchom comunity. She was the moderator in that community. Since I have already read most of her articles in e-pao.net, I requested her to write some for our Thokchom.com too. Well, I was really happy to hear from eche that she is willing to write articles for us. I will keep a separate category called “eche Shanti” for her article so that those who want to read her articles can find it easy to search. Whenever the topic is related with thokchom, I would also put the post under the thokchom category too. So, I am now looking forward to see the articles of eche Shanti in this blog.

It has been some days since I last posted. Well I was having my end semester exam. I could not have enough time to post anything particularly. It is not because of me having little time but the fact that I have no new news and story or whatever it is to write. Who wants to read post on any exam fever by the way. Well, exam is over by now and I have bought a new site called proxylistserver.com. It is a site which give you the list of proxy sites so that you don’t need to search in search engines everytime you want to use proxy site. I have given there a long list of proxy. The proxy sites in the list are periodically updated. You may find it useful particularly if you are in a college or something like that where you are forbidden to use myspace or orkut or other social networks etc. Most of the college authorities in the case of our college block any new orkut proxy and myspace proxy. So the proxy which worked yesterday doesn’t work today. Here, my list of orkut proxy gives a wide variety of orkut proxy sites to choose from which is very beneficial for many of us.

I was invited to join an orkut community called the thokchom community. Well it was the first time I knew that there was really a thokchom community. It never occurred to my mind before to search it myself. I was invited by venus thokchom to join it. I found 2 such thokchom community. They are thokchom and tkokchom. Well I joined both. Loiyumba Maanja is the administrator of thokchom and venus thokchom and Shanti are the administrator of tkokchom.

The first thread I wrote in that community is this:
I have registered the site www.thokchom.com. I have intentions to use that blog as a personal use. But I would be very happy to put anything related to Thokchom in that blog. Any article related with historical importance of thokchom or yek salai is appreciated. So, if any one of you wants to put any good article in it, you can contact me through my email kritithok@yahoo.com with the subject “thokchom” OR, you can write it as comments in that blog. The blog is a PR-2 blog with alexa ranking of about 1 million.

Everyone looks forward to the day their birthday comes. It is a happy occasion for all people.  But here, in our college, it is the day we pray never to come. Today, the 2nd of November, is my birthday. No one needs to warn me in advance. As the clock ticks 12 midnight, I heard the great sound of yaaa, yeeeee, birthday……..boy, lets lift…., kick……kick. etc. In the next moment I find myself flying in the air. There must be hundreds of kicks on my back body and bump at the same time. The cheering that comes out of my friends brings in more hostel-mates. To be a birthday boy in our hostel is what I never wanted to happen. After a 15 minutes of flying up and down, my friends gave me birthday wishes. Had they jumped to that part earlier, I would have been jumping with excitement instead of panting with my 2 legs barely supporting me. I saw many people in my own hostel who haven’t talked with me earlier but coming to give birthday kicks which we call GPL.  After that good looong session of kicks, my friends asked me cheerfully “when is the birthday party?” The only thing which I have in my mind at that time is - DAMN IT, TAKE ME TO HOSPITAL QUICK ………. AND GET LOST EVERYONE. I usually enjoy people in their birthday but not in my own. MY very good friend gave me a new muscle-pain-relieve-balm called “moov”. I knew obviously he is the one who gave me the best shots and he was keeping that balm ready for the after effect. I was well in the morning, maybe due to the moov.  I will  not forget this day, the day I get birthday LOVES (GPL) . Well who can forget the pain. And now I am thinking of the birthday party.

Many of us don’t even know that internet can be used as a medium for earning easy money. I saw internet only as a source of valuable information until, Nandeibam Uttam, one of our senior in our college showed that it can really be used for our own better benefits. Khamnam Robinsun also succeeded in becoming one of the webmasters. The two of them are the forerunners who have shown us the path. Theja, Waikhom Ningsuhen, I and then Suraj were the ones who followed them and all of us are equally successful as it is not difficult at all. Anyone can become a webmaster, or at least a blogger, if you work a little hard. You need to know some basic languages like HTML or at least know how to edit it. It is not as boring as reading college books. Thats why everyone is interested. Some of my friends in our hostel who have followed our steps are Sanjay Anand Mishra from Bihar, Amit singh from Bengal, again Amit singh from Arunachal Pradesh, Subendu Sahu from Meghalaya, Deepak Kumar Jha from Sikkim, Manu Basil from Kerala, Senapati, Uday from Himachal etc. The number of bloggers in our college are increasing exponentially. If anyone reading this article is interested in earning $500 per month from a 2 hour labour per day, you can contact me. I can help you.

I stopped writing diary right from the beginning of the month of March this year (2007). It just waste my time. I could use that time in sleeping a bit longer. “Writing a diary helps in improving writing skill”. That was what I was told and that was why I wrote diary. The first time when I started writing diary for the first time, it was very hard for me to even remember what I ate in the lunch. With time, I tried to cultivate the practice of remembering the whole events of the day in order to write them in my diary. That was really helpful to me. At one point of time, I wrote even my worst fear, my greatest desire and all other sort of greatest and worst thing- that I could not leave the diary alone, for fear of it being read by others. It gave me a sense of insecurity. Well, that was what I fear at that time (not now). That is one of the main reason why I stopped writing it. But I am thinking of writing diary again but not the same way as before. Maybe it would be digital diary this time.

Second minor starts from next Monday. Days seem to pass so quickly. I haven’t even recovered well from the past minor one results, and now here - minor 2. The classes were not attended well this time. The inter branch football which held recently has given some sort of uneasiness to me. I am not talking about the broken nail, but the defeat in the hands of IT department in the tie break was something which I did not expect. We could have won it easily. Everyone in our team have contributed their kind mistakes in letting IT win against us. The best player of the day would definitely go to IT goalkeeper, Vasudevan. He saved many goals during the match and again saved 4 consecutive tie break shots to make their team win. But I got a consolation by scoring a goal in the tie break. That was the football story and I want to stick on it. I don’t like minors like anyone.  Thats why, I am taking out some precious study time to write this post. Hoping to get a “Do well in exam” message, but I don’t know whether that would ever come.

Our journey in Daman was really memorable. 10 of us from here, went there on 6th September and returned back on 10th September. It was all Sujith’s idea to go there in Daman. He said he wanted to celebrate his birthday in Daman. None of us wanted to go there during our busy college days. But somehow he succeeded in giving offers that none of us can’t refuse. Though the offer he gave to each one of us was appealing (but it was different for different person), I didn’t like any of his offer. But I still went there because I didin’t want to be left behind and I didn’t want to miss the GPL session. The train journey was of 16 hours. The thing which I liked most is the food Sujith’s parents provided. It was really tasty and it reminded me of my home made food. For the first time in my life, I discovered that the south Indian Food “Idli” is tasty. How foolish I was to judge food from the dish our hostel mess provides.

While I ate most of the foods at his house, some of my friends enjoyed some particular foods and drinks found at Dhaba. The first day was spent on a carrom session(tournament) where Vasu and I ultimately became the winner. Both of us got treat from the remaining of us at night. Before I continue, let me tell you who were there with us. The 10 of us are Sujith Sudhakaran, Vasudevan MS, Manu Basil, Jayakrishnan, Pravin, Swathi S Nair, Ankit, Nepram Surajkumar, Waikhom Ningsuhen and myself. Sunday was the most memorable day for me. We went for Daman Beach right from the morning. We played football, 5 against 5. I think we won, but I am not sure as the game had many many additional rules. After that we played cricket. I scored more that 15 runs for the first time of my life there. But we lost the match. I can’t remember who were there in my team. Moreover a lot of creative works were done under the sea water. Unfortunately, the coral stone cut my feet and so stopped me from playing further there.

We didn’t returned to Sujith’s house in that night as it was his birthday and he said it would be better if we give him GPL outside his house. Thats what I thought but they seemed to have other plan……….

It was 1 am at night, there was no bus or rickshaw. We returned to Sujith’s house on foot walking a distance of 5 Km. I hate that part very much. Pravin was saving lives after lives, Manu was mad with 1/4, and sujith was angry about some inch(all these are coded message and I can neither erase it off nor elaborately explain it).

We had a break journey back to Bhopal. At Badodara, we have to wait for some 3 hours for the next train. Having nothing to do, we went in a cinema hall to watch the hindi movie “Darling”. All patience broke down. I had never seen such a movie. We didn’t need another word; all of us came out during the interval. Times of India gave a rating of 2/5. Had I been the critic, I would have introduced the negative(-) rating.

Monday morning, fortunately was GT and so had a nice sleep back at hostel.

I am Kriti Das Thokchom. The female family members of my big joint family call me bungo. I haven’t heard any other call me with this name and I don’t like to be called so, other than my family members. Dad calls me inaoba. That name is reserved to be called by my dad only. My close friends in my past school days use a name “kotidas” to tease me. I really don’t like that name. I don’t know why. May be, it is due to the fact that it is called in a way to tease me. There are still some who call me “kitty”. The name looks feminine and so I don’t like it, though I am not angry to be called so. Most of my decent friends call me Kriti or kidas.
