swat!!...bang!!!

bang bang bang bang......!!!!...bang bang...............!!!!!

similar noises can be heard everyday from dusk onwards from my home...nopes..it aint diwali...we aint invaded by some terrorists or for that matter aliens...but heck...attacked by an equally powerful swarm of mosquitoes...even when the sun is being merciless...drenching us every couple of minutes with our own sweat(if u think you are feeling the heat..then think of the added agony of wearing a coat all through the day)...dehydrating our water reserves...making the water melon vendors a happy lot...i hoped i would get some kind of a relief when the sun has gone down..but heck...itss as hot as morning...and well...thats where the heroes of the night come...

with music that would even challenge the likes of mozart...unceremoniously sticking their blasted horns into god knows where....my palms were sore from all that swatting...thats when my mommy genius suddenly had a great idea to buy something..yep..the killer bat!!!....

typical scenario in the evening..amma and i fighting over who gets to kill the mosquitoes...me winning the duel always...the bangs are music to our ears...running around my home...my obstetrics text in one hand and the bat in the other....mosquitoes flew helter-skelter......they knew then that the killer human has evolved!!!!

yeaaa.....we won!!...but not for loong.....

they changed their tactics...they started flying low...they knew that the exercise deprived community would never stoop soo low just to kill them...but then....i changed my tactics too....

but they are never ending....u kill them...they doubles...they are breeding like hell...i wish some mosquito genius would invent some kind of contraceptives for them....i am tired of running around the house killing them...and these mosquitoes attack me with a new found zest whenever my 'killer-bat's battery is down and its kept for charging......

there is just no end to these mosquitoes...the mosquito coils are all useless!!....i have realized that the smoke coming from these coils provide an optimum condition for their breeding...i always find the maximum mosquitoes on top of these coils....

go away mosquitoes....shooo!!....i dont want any yellow fever or dengur or malaria...i dont want you blood sucking vampires to attack me....scat!!!....i dont want those red rahes on my skin.....i dont want you disturbing my sleep....why cant you just become extinct??...then maybe..we would love you....

and i post this....sitting in a room with 2 mosquito coils and 2 fans on and armed with a bat..guess..whats happening around me...and to me........



the saga contiues........

love is in the air...

another valentines day has passed by...definitely a memorable one this time around...but again apart from all those gift exchanging..lovey-dovey talks...and a trip down the nostalgia through those beautiful memories of days spend...i really dont think that we should need a day to celebrate love or the one we love...but i m glad that there is atleast an official day where people take a moment to think of their dear ones...

for me being together is in itself a celebration..love should not be minimised to a single day...celebrate it queen size each moment you are together...the smiles...the cuddles..the snuggles...the fights...the misunderstandings...the make ups...the hugs and the kisses...celebrate it because being in love is something special...even with all the pain that come along with it...

so people...even if you are soo busy changing the world today..stop for a moment...theres still time...you are not late...think about the one who made you smile...who makes your life complete...about the one you miss the most...about the one you are thinking of right now...if you havent then go ahead and make it special...in your own special way...

and to those who are not lucky enough to have one...cupids arrows will not be blunt forever....
and to those who think they are better off without one...i cant explain what you are missing...

and here's my valentine gift..not just to one...but to all of you...who celebrate love..and the very essence of it...my big valentine's day bear hug!!!
