Trying to post  after  an year of hiatus, blogging can be quite trying. Thankfully, I will be back in 3 months time, where sane people live( that is comparitive), internet and home,crosswords,hot food, mom and longer beds with no iron posts to hit my legs every night and mainly no gujjus to look at every morning, U bet I am waiting to get back home.There have been these things of important nature that I have learnt staying away  from home-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- Aroma therapy really works!Never throw away your almost empty body wash or shampoo bottles, the last few drops can save u if ur olfactory senses are highly developed. Especially if your room mate who has just used the toilet&lt;br /&gt;and is disturbingly careless about flushing and hygiene.&lt;br /&gt;- Listening is not always a virtue! Not when your landlady is a talking and swearing machine which does not need to draw breath and does not believe in punctuations when it comes to abusing her husband for not giving her money.&lt;br /&gt;- People actually go to mental hospitals, real live ones and contrary to my beliefs, that I would meet one such person, my land lady has been there. Scored a Hattrick!.&lt;br /&gt;- Most people talk nonsense! Most of the time and especially between classes. They are repetitive and it is okay if u do not listen and just nodding will do just fine.&lt;br /&gt;- Power, even in the most stupidest of forms is acknowledged, more so when you are the new rep of a bunch of pea brains. More so when u do not take running notes in a class u can notice that favours always come your way.&lt;br /&gt;- When managing in limited funds every month is a problem, there is an involuntary antenna that your brain develops which always tries to radio in on the word "free" anywhere you go.&lt;br /&gt;- Rain gods hate me. It rains when I start any journey, be it to the grocery store and immediately stops when I reach a shelter.

Seen as a sophisticated and mature person, you are liked by many an adult.  But otherwise, you're a rebellious and controversial person.  On the other hand, you're also very conservative and and frugle.  Is it possible that you enjoy reading a heavy book?  But seen as mysterious and hidden, it may be hard to find someone to talk to.  You're not a particularly outgoing person, but you do enjoy a good, long talk with a person.  Debating is one of your favorite forms of communication.  You just enjoy stirring strong emotions inside people, and watching the reaction.

This particular fan had suddenly drifted away from her fav crooner since the last six months or so. Those who knew me personally would have been amazed by the fact thatI havent listened to him for that long.&lt;br /&gt;But then this morning whenI was cruising through my music folder, I had a sudden resurgence of emotions when i saw him sitting in that folder demurely, inconspicious yet beckoning me to him.&lt;br /&gt;After half an hour of resplendent ecstacy of his husky, lilting melodies I realized it's a high time I made a post  about him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Somehow Adams has always been there through all the turbulations, the highs-the lows,  for the past 6-7 years of my life.&lt;br /&gt;He brought me my first best friend in college to me in the most frustrating situation times of that year. My 2nd friend followed . a common thread binding us.&lt;br /&gt;Then followed this person whom I absolutely love ... the first post I'd read of his was titled " The summer of 69".&lt;br /&gt;Now that I'm done with the reminisings....Lets start off with &lt;a href="http://bryanadams.com"&gt;Adams&lt;/a&gt;... I guess the rest of his fans would probably the same things anyway..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most awesome lyrics , each one of his songs contain those precious few lines which are significantly priceless, atleast to me. I am always amazed by the way he can put some undescribable emotions into those perfect words, more so because me as a person cant remotely write anything close to be called poetic -I guess &lt;a href="http://iyerospot.blogspot.com"&gt;Iyer&lt;/a&gt; knows better with me challenging him once and ultimately ending up making him eat bird curry.&lt;br /&gt;Or better still&lt;a href="http://swathinandi.blogspot.com/2005/10/blog-post.html"&gt; this&lt;/a&gt;

The temperature had dropped precariously the last night to probably the lowest that season with the weather reports claming it to be the lowest in decade.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;That morning when she was lying in her warm bed, she had and unsettling feeling of uneasiness growing inside her for no reason that she could attribute it to which had not allowed her to enjoy the warmth that she normally savoured in early winter mornings.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;As she drove to college, the usual hustle-bustle and the crowd was almost absent and the streets looked deserted , with people probably trying to stay indoors on this cold morning . She turned into the street leading to her college, she automatically started cursing the road with its potholes and the drainage water that was flowing out from the broken pipelines. Struggling to manevour her vehicle through this stretch of the road, her eyes suddenly fell on a sprawled figure, almost strewn on to one side of the road about half way across the street. With a hesitant feeling, she slowed her speed down to take in the details of the unmoving figure.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;With slow realization that dawned upon her, she realized that she was looking down at the lifeless, stone cold body of&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;a dirty graying –black haired&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;and wizened old woman who seemed to have died of the cold sometime in the night. Every wrinkle on her cold conorted face seemed to be telling a story. She was one of those homeless and ragged people on the road without even the bare minimum to cover themselves against the cold.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Nothing about the unmoving body gave a hint that there was any sign left of life in it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The feet were frozen like a log with dirty soles and severely cracked heels covered with the dust from being barefooted on the road and arms had cracks with clotted blood streaks probably from the skin cracked in the cold. A flimsy sari made of a thin fabric covered her starvation riddled torso and ended above the heels. The wizened face with the tighly prused up lips as if frozen mid way in the shiver against the chill and eyes showing&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;lines of whites gave Anita a depressing ,almost frightening feeling of looking at a wayward dead body.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;She quickly averted her eyes from the wrenching state of the figure, Anita zoomed away knowing there was nothing anyone could do.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The last image that she saw from the corner of her eyes was the fluttering of the hem of the sari in the wind around her ankles with a breeze from the acceleration of her bike.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;?xml:namespace prefix = o /&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Lakshmiamma wasn’t always this poor and starved. Shehad also seen the days of warmth and luxury of being inside a 4 walled brick house. She had a single room with a wooden door, awkwardly fitted into the red bricks with rusty metal hinges which creaked whenever opened. The roof was made out of aluminium sheets,a lxury that most other houses in her slum didnt have.In the monsoon, the rain made loud noises when they fell on the metal sheets and she was always glad to being inside this dry room of hers. She never failed to thank god for providing this modest , but safe accommodation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;She was much better off than the next door neighbours of her who were loud and quarreled over food, space and everything possible.They dint even have a proper thatched roof&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;and were twelve in number.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Her husband had died about 20 years ago after a bout of fever and blood-ridded coughand the doctor in the big hospital at the end of the government street had said that there was no more hope.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;She had no children to fend for which was blessing in disguise as the monsy that she used to save form her husbands earning in a&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;plastic jar behind the photograph of lord Krishna in her room&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;now started geting used up for weekly visits to the doctors and the medicines.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;She had never worked worked before in her life when her husband was alive. They were well off enough to have two meals of dal and rice with occasional Sunday vegetables. All this changedthe night when he died in the dorm room of the hospital&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Since then she started to work in the nearby big apartments&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;and earned her monsy by sweeping the stairs&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;every morning. And washing utensils at the home of a newly married couple who later moved away leaving her with lesser money . &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Her troublesbegan the day when the road contactors&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;came into the slum and started demolishing the structures there. No one could&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;say anything as they had papers with signatures on it saying that some rich businessman had bought the land and was going to build some hotel there.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Now she was home less since a month and had to live on the pavement across the street of the big building. Her income had all gone with a month on the streetsa dn buying berad&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;from the tea stall . The sweeping job was gone with the people wanting a younger person for the job . her limbs had not allowed her to work for longer hours as age caught up with her.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;She had to start foraging for food from the bins near the hotels. All this lead to her body yeilding to the cold, starvation and grew weaker day by day. She had now only one torn blanket to cover herself with on thestreet at the nights.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;This particular night was extremely cold, with the chilling wind blowing, something that her blanket could not guard herself against. All night as the cold wind racked her old&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;and tired body which desperately tried to fight and shivered in response.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Some how now it was staring to give up the fight. At the crack of the dawn, she tried to get up and walk in the hope of warming herself in the rising sunrays, she somehow knew she could keep up no more. She felt her legs collapse under her onto the wet and dirtyroad beside the following water from the drain and fell on to the ground strewn with pebbles. She coul not move even as she tried her last movement toward hope.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Her limbs had turned stone cold. Her eyes would not open &lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;and a few mins later she could not move.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;She lay there awaiting some respite from the pain and the cold that racked her body in spasms &lt;span style="font-size:+0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;either in the form of warmth or death. She was ready to welcome any of them now.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;She felt herself growing numb and the sounds around her started to quieten, thelast sound she heard was the throb of an engine rushing past heras she felt life ebb away with the flutter of the hem of her sari with the breeze from the vehicle at her nkles. And then at least felt the cold and pain leave her that tormented her all night.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Love&lt;br /&gt;Pro&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/15299380-113768322395898275?l=swathinandi.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://swathinandi.blogspot.com/2006/01/that-winter.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Lord of all Things)</author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>13</thr:total></item></channel></rss>
