@The Fool, 

No, not to US to Indian address. But just to tell you, I never ever wish for the first prize. Somehow the prizes on the bottom of the page are more tempting to me. And you know with a new Macbook, a pendrive would be really handy, just in case I want to transfer data from old laptop :P

Seriously I can't participate for that also??? :'(

Ahh, I think I should start writing one for this

TF Carthick

I had a very ambitious idea. But no time to execute. Looks like I have to finally skip a contest.

C. Suresh

I have just posted mine :) Now if only I can think up a recipe for Delmonte, I can keep my record intact :)

Arti
from Mumbai |

Come on TF, give it a go - You can do it!

TF Carthick
from Bangalore |

Thanks for the encouragement, Arti. May not do my ambitious idea. But would post something simpler if Indi comes with an extension.

Arti
from Mumbai |

Do try to step in TF, even if Indi does not come out with an extension. Does not matter if its a simple idea. Your simple ones are also no less and beautiful gems to treasure.

Submitted My Entry.

Ekta Khetan
from Mumbai |

Can we pllll extend the submission date? Two contests colliding for final submission on same day...and here work@office doesnt seem to get kind :(

Pl confirm, Indi team

TF Carthick
from Bangalore |

Agree with Ekta. Seeing some of the entries, I am also feeling like participating. A deadline extension will ensure I maintain my streak of never missing a contest on Indi.

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

I will be starting my post today! (I know that I am not 20 Wink)

Ekta Khetan
from Mumbai |

Finished and published my posts...do read and comment on my blog on what went well and what's missing, buddies!

Folks, let the writer's block not deter you...I too have same syndrome esp when writing about a country/ place you have never been before (for that case I have never been to any place outside India Cry )

So, pl write...its better to write than not write at all! #the Fool

Ranjith, didn't understood what u meant?

Arti
from Mumbai |

Submitted my entry, loved doing this post as much as I loved reading the entries by others... the hard work that everyone has put in, in piling up the memories is very much evident in the beauty of all the entries up for the contest! Thanks IndiBlogger for this opportunity and Good Luck to everyone here! Smile

Ranjith

I am wondering why memories 11-15 are devoid of pictures! Smile

Arti

Lack of talent Wink

Medha Kapoor

Submitted a post today! Got hit by the infamous writer's block and ended writing a lame one :P Rooting for the free pen drive

TF Carthick
from Bangalore |

Seems to be no deadline extension. So I guess I will skip this one. Will skip the next one as well as it is cookery. For the last 6 -8 months, my blogging has revolved around Indi contests. Now time to move on I guess.

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

my blogging has revolved around Indi contests The same with me. I am seriously looking forward to move all of my contest posts to a new blog (dump) and starting blogging in the way I use to in my initial days- Posts straight from the heart, trying to conceal facts and the meaning- which none could decipher.

TF Carthick
from Bangalore |

Good, Ranjith. People enjoy writers who write from the heart. But such writers run out of steam in some time and technique does not evolve. I also started as one such blogger and could manage 15-20 posts a year. Thanks to various contests and prompts, I have manged to keep my blogs afloat and manage 60-80 post a year the last 2 years. Guess it is time to return to my roots and see if I can maintain this rate writing orginal posts without any external motivation. Also I have explored so many different techniques and themes in different contests. Its time I internalized all this and made it part of my natural style. 

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

Hope that you will be able to get back to those initial blogging days while maintaining the current posting frequency. Smile As for myself, all that I wish to do now is to just move away all the contest posts, keep the originals, redesign my blog ( give it the feel of a professional site) myself (custom design) and maintain it as an archive and post something if the words come out naturally and not forcibly as with contests. I think that I would be able to blog once every one or two months. Those one or two posts on special occassions with real feelings and inspiration can make me happy and satisfied. Smile

Ekta Khetan
from Mumbai |

MY blogging too off late is revolving around the same but i guess, its a healthy/ lovely revolvement!

It gives me to write even better and competitive posts on the given theme..less meanderings Smile but I try and write all from heart, that's why I write only 1 or 2 entries max!. Come on guys, cheer up! Indibloggers contests are cool!

Ekta Khetan
from Mumbai |

well..just saw the dove results and post that I too endorse the same feeling...no more craze for indi contests!!!!

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

My post is done now with a small poem. (Not sure if one can call it a poem) Smile

Ranjith
from hyderabad |

I've submitted my entry that looks something like a poem ( doubtful) Undecided 

Ankita Sinha

sweta tiwary

I looked difficult because of the busy sch edule at work, but somehow did it.

It was so much fun to take a virtual tour of the city.

Renie Ravin

TF Carthick

Wow! Thanks. Guess I would participate after all and think of quitting sometime later.

Laready posted my entry after working whole through day and being awake till 5 am in morning for 2 days!
