A Century

Finally!!! I never thought I’d ever come to this... It took me four years to reach my 100th post and guess what?? I celebrated that by cribbing...:-0. My previous post was my 100th post and after all that BESCOM bashing, I realised that the post should have been a happy one!!! *SIGH*

Anyhow coming back to my happy post, it has been a great journey and I can see myself mature, not talking age-wise here, but in my writing. I have tried sharing all my experiences (good ones and not so good ones as well) in the ‘blogland’ and tried using humour to the maximum extent possible to make it interesting. And boy have I thoroughly enjoyed myself or what??

As I continue my journey forward, I shall try to keep my blog updated during each phase of my life with the same vigour and enthusiasm that has kept me going for the last four years. Whatte journey it has been and I am hoping the future only gets better :)

Democrazy

In a democratic country you choose your government by casting a vote to the party most suited to take control of the place you stay in. Sadly in our case we cast a vote to a bunch of irresponsive morons who give us power cuts in return....

The reason for my outburst is because I am sitting in darkness for the 6th hr today!!! Each time I call the Bescom dept the answer I get is unscheduled load shedding – but for 6hrs???? This is the heights! The cheek of the department to tell me that we get orders from the station and we only take complaints, so then where do we even complain? And if you ask them for the station number they simply reply saying they don’t have any and that it won’t matter whom ever you call! Can you believe this???

Any other day would have been fine but not when the summer is down on us at its best!!! I do have an alternative to this situation; we are already getting an inverter installed but think of people who cannot afford it... I’d say you should kick all these politicians on the road who only talk and fart...

These are the sad and sorry state of affairs in India, we are all so helpless in the hands of the so called politicians that we have nothing left but to sit quietly and do nothing... when I complain to the husband the answer I get is “what is it that I can do”? Why is it that we can’t do anything, they loot us in the name of development and in return give us only inconvenience - be it inflation or power cuts!!! Unfortunately me a common man is not gaining anything!!! Grrrr....

I am so irritated and annoyed to an extent that I feel like marching down to the ministers house and sit in his luxury, after all that’s something we have given him in return for his begging!!! Why should he sit in comfort while I suffer from heat and darkness???

Better watch out, knowing me I might just do that one day!!! And the next time you come begging for votes I know what to do... give you a total shock with the electricity you deprive us of!
