Rain Rain Go Away!!!!

Rains Rains Rains..Enought of them..We ve suffered a lot due to rains last year..Esp the people in the sub urbs..The locality name Madipakkam was popularised more just because of rains and the consequent floods....I lost count of the days we were marooned in a waterscape without any mode of transport to get to work or school/college..There was also no power..This meant tat we had nothin to do after sunset (Good old primitive days) ..Nothin to study too..Thou i cud ve used a candle..We d dinner around six thirty then wander abt in the terrace for another half an hour then get to sleep....Wat else to do..No TV no PC etc..etc... Worse of all the rains came durin my university exams..Thanks to Anna univ..They postponed all the exams..So another excuse for not studying...The rains tat came during December 1st week during 2005 were the worst ones i ve ever seen....The water level was very high...It was around five feet on road...Ya on road..It may be surprisin for many people but its benn a sort of routine for Ram nagar people every year....

Interestin sights diring the floods...People used to swim to their work initially befor ferry service was deployed...Miscellaneous objects ranging from slippers to pots to even mixies came floating in water....Then we got to see all possible sorts of insects, fishes and even snakes...Very interstingly i found tat snakes could climb steps too when one came to our doorstpe in the first floor.....

Ok enough enough i myself getting bored reciting these events...Let's hope this year tat the rains are a bit liberal and come in the sufficient quantity..Tat ll do!!!!!
