About Me

Who am I?

I'm a jaunty young girl with a penchant for stormy nights, rainy mornings, happening nightclubs, zoos (I love animals!!), librarys and lots of redbull!

There was a time when I was "blog-shy" (way back when the phenomenon of blogging took over the cyberworld!) Since then, that feeling that the blogger community was too exclusive to enter has far diminished and having made my entrance to the blogsphere I've grown to love it and feel very much a part of the blogging world!

What do I think?

My ideas border on the philosophical for the most part. I enjoy political debates and current affairs as much as I do literary works. Hence I like varied topics ranging from music, life and love to movies, gossip and local news. A little bit of everything spices up my thought world.

The reason why this blog is called "Just Chillin'" is because this is my hangout place. After a hard day's work, I put on my PC and relax, chilling with the blogging content of my fellow-bloggers and sharing my comments. It's absolutely great chilling out slowly with my cyber mates.

You're welcome here

This is my blog and I hope you enjoy your stay here. Feel free to comment and share your own thoughts.

CHILL

In the 1980s and 1990s, chill gained currency as a slang term meaning “to relax, calm down.” It is first recorded in 1979 and comes from Black English slang, which has frequently been a source of slang and informal words in Standard English, often through the medium of various African-American musical styles (in this case, rap and hip-hop). In fact, the word chill has had several incarnations as a slang term both inside and outside Black English. An older slang sense, recorded first in the 1870s, has been “to lose interest (in something), sour (on something).” Since the late 1920s it has also been used transitively to mean “to quash” and even “to kill.” The recent use in the sense “to calm down” is another example of slang's innovativeness: English has always used words referring to heat and cold metaphorically to refer to emotions, and has used cool to refer to calmness since Old English times. Chill is a novel way of saying cool down, an old metaphor. The semantic evolution of chill continues as this is being written; the new sense of “to relax” has even more recently been extended to mean “to relax among friends, socialize.” Chill thus offers a good example of how living languages are constantly changing in ways that are at once unpredictable and immediately comprehensible.
