Rain can be a problem too..I agree..:(

Climatic changes was something that never concerned me before, but now it is the only thing that bothers me...
I never have given a second thought about my ears other than my craze about ear rings..
For the last one week I realized how much trouble this two little pieces could make when it is troubled...Have u ever felt ear pain?..that too intense one resulted from cold and ear infection...that was the horrible condition I faced...Everyday started with me getting up with hands covering the ears, face full of anger and heart full of irritation...Can't even shout because of throat pain and stupid cough...
It all started with that cyclone which hit south India (as per my doctor)...

You know I love rain...I was just out from the office and it was drizzling...I enjoyed the walk towards the bus stop ,with my ear phone playing my new favorite song from "Once upon a time in Mumbai(peeelu...)"... and the breeze caressing my hair letting me feel confident and fresh...In Bangalore, especially, when it starts to rain, the wind is so dramatically cool and nature is very much poetically beautiful...making us forget the world around....slowly the rhythm will get faster and faster changing the diamond drops to sharp needles that prick your skin ..den the wind will make you feel the real feeling of "freeze"...It was what that exactly happened that day too...

By the time I reached a shelter I was shivering and very much alive...The bus came quickly... without knowing the trauma waiting for me, I hurried into the bus with a equally shivering crowd....The very first moment I entered the bus, I cursed the one who invented air conditioner...it was like from fire to the furnace...By the time the conductor came to me, I was numb...i couldn't clutch my bag nor could take the money from it for the ticket..Seeing the passengers'condition,he asked the driver to reduce AC ...I felt okay after some time...but next day I woke up with soar throat and irritation in ear which lasted and haunted me for the next one week ...
:(
I learned few facts after that:
Wearing cotton in ear looks really funny in office except for you.....
Ear pain is something which we can never express in the truest sense because nobody mind it until the pain is for ourselves...
In some situations ,we should forget our love towards nature and rain but never ever should forget an umbrella especially when there is weather swings....
&
Don't boast too much that you are immune to cold...It will come searching for you...


Now,I don't forget to take my umbrella nor the woolen shawl..Even if i forget to take it back from my desk, without complaining ,i will go back 6 floor up... Rain can also change people...:):):)

It's raining....

How could I miss to write a line in my page when it's raining outside..


It was when my friends started teasing that I stopped writing about it in my blog..But, sorry my friends ..this time it's too tempting.. i can't stop myself..



My first memory of rain is of a day when I was small..I was making paper boats and crying when it got drowned in rain...That day my dad and brother taught me how to hold an umbrella and save my pretty little boats..I was so happy n excited to hold that umbrella .following the boats till our gate..

Then it move on to so many pictures....

Faces of my old friends...when we waited excitedly in the school varandah for the rain to stop....to start playing..

Confusing college days ..wondering whether to enjoy the feeling of the rain or to be bothered of the dress I wear...

Laziness to get up and go to office when it's raining...

Days when I forgot to take my umbrella and got drenched..(Secretly, I loved It ,though my hair looked horrible and my sneezing shocked my friends...he he )

Above all it's the longing to go home that hurts ..missing my mom's scoldings ,dad's loving voice and sweet fearsome quarrels with my brother...I don't know..Rain make me miss my home and dear ones so terribly ...

But its only thoughts that take you back to those days not the time..

Then my mind will scroll to future..plans and dreams ...100s of them ...dancing in each raindrop that I count...

It's very easy to wait and hope for good things to happen when it 's raining..

That's why I love rain so much....
