This will be my last review for nearly a month to come. No wonder I chose to write it on MS.
The way in which I came across MS was for totally different a reason than others. As most of you who have visited my profile know, I am in the process of finishing a masters degree in physics. Well for some days I have been writing the thesis for the same. Those who have passed through this stage know how boring it could get. I am no exception. With loads of endless data to analyse and chapters to write I thought of taking a break. That led me to the first amusing review I ever read on the movie Girlfriend (guess where). I am no big fan of hindi movies, but the way in which the review was written, meant that I would not go back to my thesis for the next four days.
That in principle is the reason for me having written 15(+1) reviews so far within 4 days. I cannot recall absolutely any instance when I had so badly been glued to a website. MS has offered me what I had been searching for, for a very long time- people keeping me company through the day. I should confess that no matter how interesting it is, in science and specially in research, life can get enormously monotonous and alone. And specially with no girlfriend (no I am not talking about that sick movie) around (huh..) this site has proved to be my best friend so soon.
I do not want to repeat the usual cliches about how useful the reviews on this site are - they ofcourse are. But to be dead honest, I do not only value this site for its reviews, rather I value it orders of magnitude more for the people I meet, the things I write and the things you express when you interface with anything I wrote. I guess the fact that someone gets noticed in such a respectible and responsible platform like MS, is more of a remuneration than rediff where the communication is just one way.
I value this platform even more for the creativity it brings about. I never used to write anything like a diary or a daily account of things that amuse me or baffle me. It was simply because I found it useless to write soemthing that I would be the only person to read. Now its different. I dont need to write it anymore because I have a wonderful community to share my experiences with. This gives me a satisfaction that what I write is being read by a quality audience who really care.
I guess you will find me and my reviews once again in another month. I know that I will be missing -quite badly- all of you who cared to comment on my reviews, message me, rate and read my reviews for some time to come. I sincerely hope that those who read my reviews benefitted from it in exactly the same way as I benefitted from your reviews. I have no word to describe this but sure enough MS and I- or should I say you and I- will be seeing each other for a very long time to come.
I hope that all of you take care, and wish all of you a great time till I see you again and hope honestly that MS grows by leaps and bounds in the times to come.
Best Wishes,
Vyom.
