Dell Venue 7 and My Karva Chauth Henna & Nail Art

Yesterday was Karva Chauth, a festival celebrated by Indian women to pray for the longevity of their husband. They wake up early morning, pray to God and start a 'Nirjal' fast for the whole day - no food and most importantly no water for the whole day. They open their fast after looking at the moon through a sieve. The whole day is spent adorning hands and feet with henna, dressing up and keeping one self busy so that the thirsty dry throat becomes a non-issue.

I was supposed to do a Karva Chauth special nail art yesterday. But I was superly busy applying henna to my hands and was pretty low on energy and hence skipped doing something too intricate for my nails.

But what I did do was use my Dell Venue 7 tablet to click pictures. I know I have raved and ranted about the fact that I don't like the camera on the tablet. But since I was up early it meant I had all the sunlight I wanted to use the camera of the tablet. So I used it for clicking my henna and my final nails. I also edited the pictures on the tablet.

First let me show you my henna (if you follow me on instagram and facebook you must have already seen these)

My First Ever Video - Dell Venue 7 In Action

Hi friends, I am taking a big deep breath as I write this. This post is all about a new beginning of trying to do videos for the blog. And it has taken me over a week to get the video in shape. And I know there is a long way to go before I can become a regular vlogger!

A lot of you had questions about the Dell Venue 7 that I have written about (click for post 1, post 2, post 3)

I decided to do a video review of the tablet and make it as a learning point for video reviews. I have played around with a lot of video software for android platforms and still haven't found one that I like. You will see a watermark in this video so please ignore it.

I sincerely hope that you do find it worth watching at least once. Please be generous and do let me know if you like it by leaving a thumbs up for the video.


I hope I will be able to do more shorter videos specially for my nail art. Do let me know which software you recommend to me for video editing - something that can do all the things in one place!

Have a great week ahead!

An Update On My Blogging With Dell Venue 7

Hi everyone, so I have continued to post using my Dell Venue 7. You must have noticed a lesser frequency of updates here but that is because I haven't been keeping too well lately - the heat is just driving me nuts!

Anyhow I thought I will just update you all on how my blogging experience using the Dell Venue 7 is going and I would like to say I am currently enjoying this little tablet. I still haven't tried calling using the tablet but I plan to do that sometime next week. (Oh and there is a nail art I did recently at the end of this post too!)

I also want to just let you know the basic features of this tablet in a gist - for more details about it you can actually visit this LINK and check it out.

So there are two versions of the Dell Venue out there - the 7-inch version (which I have) and another slightly larger 8-inch version. As I already mentioned the look of this tablet is gorgeous with its plain glass front face with no button markings. You only see a small circular cutout which is there for the front-facing camera. A rubberized ring surrounds the glass which makes sure that even when I place it face down, the glass never touches the surface I place it on.

My New Gadget - Blogging On The Go

Hi friends, have been facing power cuts and a floppy internet connection because of which I haven't been regular lately. Not sure if you follow my other blog, if you do you would know that I have been trying out various devices to find out something that I can use for blogging on the go.

For the next few months I am going to play around with a new gadget that I got. I am writing this post using my new toy! I'm playing around with the Dell Venue 7 tablet that launched some time in January this year. Most of you gadget freaks must have read about it already but I'm here just to share my experience from a blogging perspective. So the posts that you see in the days to follow will be written using this tab (and so you will have to hear my rants on how the Dell Venue is working out for my needs.
