This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Contest Factory for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

Do you think your cubicle/ office space is the worst in the world? Can you prove it by making a video showing what makes it the most pathetic cubicle? If you can do it, you have a chance to win a $1200 office make over.

Yes it is true, you can enter the Pimp My Cube Contest on Contest Factory and if you are the winner you will get a $1200 office makeover. How do you go about it? It is pretty simple, all you need to do is to make a video of your office/ cube and explain to the world why it is a horrible place to work. The next step is to upload it on Contest Factory website and invite your friends, family and associates to login and vote for your video.

Everything you do on Contest Factory site will earn you sweepstakes entry points. Contest Factory judges will watch all the videos and select the grand winner as per their criteria which includes the maximum number of votes, best video and most compelling story.

Now for the prizes the grand prize is valued at $1200 and can be used to upgrade your office/ cube with one of the three packages that include: a brand new high end computer system, or new office furniture and decorations, or you could even get a high end entertainment package which includes a stereo, espresso machine, etc.

The contest ends on January 31, 2012. If you are worried that your video may not be the best to win $1200, there is a second sweepstakes prize of $200 gift card which will be awarded to a randomly chosen winner.

So now don't delay your contest entry, there is very little time but enough to make you a winner. As I said before just make a video of your pathetic office, upload it and invite everyone you know to vote for it. You may be the winner of $1200.

Happy Republic Day 2012

Today's is India's Republic Day - the day when India became a sovereign republic day with its own distinct constitution. India's Republic Day Parade is one of the most famous events that takes place in the Capital. I have never attended one in person but I have watched the live telecast on TV several times in my life when I was in India.

Next time I am in India I hope it is during this time so I can go to Delhi and watch the parade with my own eyes.

Why do I feel alone?
Whether I am one
or I am with someone
I still feel lone

I am sure there are
souls who feel similar
as if they were alone
despite surrounded by millions

I wonder why??

Upgrade your cellphone and get paid for it!

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Cellitused, Inc. for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

What would you say if you were offered money to give away your old cellphone and get a new and modern one? That would be great isn't it, you don't have to wonder what to do with your old phone nor do you have to accumulate unnecessary things at home. This is exactly what Cellitused.com is offering to do.

Under their new plan known as "Get Paid to Upgrade!" the company is offering you a unique opportunity to upgrade and get the most modern cellphone without worrying about how to dispose your old one. Moreover they are actually showing you a way to make money off of your old, used cellphone.

Some of us are early adopters and want the latest technology. Now that the iPhone 4s is here I am sure lot of us want to upgrade from our old 3g and 3gs to get this brand new model with a robotized talking voice. You can easily Sell Your iPhone to Cellitused.com and upgrade to the phone of your choice.

By upgrading your cellphone you will be doing mother earth a great favor too. Cellphone manufacture involves loads of different hazardous chemicals such as arsenic, antimony, mercury, etc. These chemicals can pose serious environmental hazard. By selling your old cellphone you are contributing to minimize this risk.

Not only cellphones you can recycle your old electronic devices at Cellitused.com. You are assured of a great cash price on Cellitused.com for your old electronics. Founded in 2006, Cellitused has been in the business buying and selling used cell phones, ipad and other smartphones. You can sell even broken ones and make extra cash and also save the environment.

This is what I call a "double whammy"

A Friend

When I was happy and laughing
The whole world was with me
When I was sad and grieving
There was only one by my side!

When I was rich and famous
Everyone wanted to meet me,
Know me, & spend time with me,
Only to boost their egos

But when When the wealth and notriety were gone
With them went everyone but one
The one who has been with me as god's boon
More in times of sorrow than in joy

That is you none other than
My friend - the one who is always there
as a pillar of support
like the northern star to a navigator

Settling Into Academics...

Image via Wikipedia

School started a week ago and I am slowly but surely getting settled into the final leg of my degree program. Boy this is one event I am looking forward to... graduating soon. The past few semesters have been pretty rough and many a time I have felt Tom of, Tom and Jerry cartoon show - running after an elusive target and getting beaten up left, right and center. I hope this will be the end of all this and I will get to turn things around and make academics like Jerry pictured in this cartoon.

That would definitely be a day to celebrate for me, because I would have conquered my degree and not vice-versa. Anyway I will be blogging sporadically, now here and now not here.....
