Ladies and gentlemen, say hello to Al the elephant. He is very happy to see you all and cannot stop dancing.

I am quite pleased with my header and the new feel of the blog. I find it very exciting when I get to design/decorate something. I know this is my blog and it should have the same design as my website..for easy recognition you know. I've been taught that my website, business cards, resume, cover letter etc should all look similar for continuity. As much as I agree, I also disagree.

This is a whole new space waiting to be filled with fun stuff. It was so hard to come down to one design for my website. What about all these other looks I like? I don't just want to give them up! Apart from my logo, I changed things up. So I decided to make this space more casual, fun-er and use/experiment different styles. Hence, the elephant. I love elephants. They're my favorite. I think the fascination comes from my love for Lord Ganesh. Being a Hindu, it can get confusing with so many Gods to follow. But I've always believed in my 'elephant God' probably because his birthday is one of my favorite festivals and my family has a huge celebration every year.

Wow! I totally deviated. I just wanted to introduce my new friend Al. :)
