ouch!!!!!that hurt

rising seems to be the apt word that could be common to the gold prices,oil,real estate and the tempertaure here at chennai.its jus tooooooo hot here.the mercury is rising every day and the met dept predicts that the worse days are yet to come.chennai is not a stranger to these climatic situations but sometimes you cant really carry on."stay indoors" is possibly the way to beat the heat and with the exams round the corner,i m learning to spend quality time at home.evenings are much better.day before,i decided to avoid driving and take the public transport instead.i just thought that could be a smart way of avoiding the heat and also saving fuel.while returning home,i made up my mind to get down the running bus instead of walking from the bus stop thats a few metres away.i have done this a hundred times before,ok.so its not the"i m excited abt this"kinda situation.just when i was about to place my foot down the road,the driver gave it an acceleration and the result.......torn pants,cuts and that "ouch!!"feeling.i was on the road with people starring at me and all i could do was"ah!!no worries..nothing......just a small cut....thats all".i made up the cocky expressions and went home.its better now.yesterday when my brother was trying out the same stuff as me(he actually wanted to do it from an auto),i said no and stopped him.it wasnt me but my experience that spoke i guess.they say"a good decision comes from experience but experience comes only from a bad decision".wish me health

10,000 CC--------a fight for water


10,000 BC was a film that was in theatres till a few days ago until the theatre folks were forced to remove it.i didnt see the movie but i think its abt some crap....perhistoric times,amazingly huge creatures,human ancestors,all fighting with each other and as usual thers a guy who is supposed to be the hero who falls in love with a girl and finally kills the monster and the story ends with both of them living happily ever after......huh!!now thats the 10000th movie of that kind.........rightly named.now thers a problem here between tamilnadu and karnataka who are fighting for water.its not about those hunger strikes,its also not abt your identity,its not about your protests but its all about the people who are starving for drinking water.i have always thought that thers something seriously wrong with people who walk in protests holding a placard or a banner and shouting slogans.i dont think thats a good way of sorting out things.what the affected people need is helping hands,they need someone who can be among them and gets things better.i understand through the media reports that many innocent people are getting killed and injured on either side of the border.its terribly sad to see incidents such as these which weaken the unity which we hold as "Indians".many great scholars have voiced out their opinions and what we demand now is the settlement of the issue.its been 60 years of free independent india and surely not a one that great souls like mahatma gandhi would have dreamt of.it would be fair enought to talk to representatives from both states and come to a good conclusion that could provide benefit to the people.or else the consequences would be bitter.i jus hope that this fight for water stops here.lets not make this fight for 10000cc of water like 10000bc
