Reasons Why I HATE Winters!

So, the temperature here is sufficiently low to make me write this. 


Wheel, electricity, bulb, radio, computer, phone, rocket etc - all these inventions seem worthless when compared to a geyser, not to forget the kid-like urgency of tucking yourself in a quilt after having dinner and a cold water hand-wash!

So here are my reasons for hating winters:

  • The first and foremost reason why I deeply, fully, completely hate winters is that you get cold hands and feet. I don't like cold hands and feet. I never get warm no matter how many layers of clothing I wear.
  • The never ending struggle to find the cellphone lost in the blanket is highly annoying. Also, you cannot find a suitable position to read in the blanket.
  • I can't do the waking up before sun rise thing in winters. I'll be awake just not entirely with it from now until March time.
  • There is mad fog in the campus. No going for a walk after dinner!
  • Winters are for sleeping the whole day. But you have to wake up early in the morning for college
  • Your fingers are frozen. You cannot write anything.
  • Everything is so dull, lifeless. Not good.
  • After you brush, your mouth is frozen! Also, it is very annoying when the sleeve of your sweater/jacket gets wet while washing hands. Arrrr!
  • You keep shivering all the time.
  • Coconut oil gets frozen. Then you have to do hard work to melt it and then you can oil your hair peacefully.
I could write more, but my fingers have frozen enough already! 
Happy Whatever-is-remaining-of-the-winter winter! 
Keep yourself warm! *Disfruter de la vida* :)

Speeding in the Winter Rain!

So the day was ... fun! (glad to hear myself  say this after a long long time!)
Today, I was woken up by my sweetest way. That just gave me all I needed. 
 Yeah I had my Physics exam today, and it DID go well! (for the first time that!)
But why I will remember today forever was because of what happened on my way back home.
As soon as I met Shruti, I looked up, worrying that it might rain any minute. So, to reach home in a hurry,  she started her scooty in a jiffy and I quickly climbed behind her .. and off we went. 
100 miles an hour?
 I don't know. But however fast that was, it was enough to make me believe, for just one second that I was time travelling (yes, have your laugh)
In 21 seconds, 
IT STARTED RAINING...
Heavy downpour!
She sped her Dhanno even faster, and I couldn't see anything (I wonder how did she, either!)
I kept telling her "Please slow down, I wanna get home ALIVE", but then, when the intensity of the rain increased God knows how many times, I forgot everything else, and just started to enjoy the ice-cold water pouring over us! That 20 minute ride back home just made my day!
When I reached home and got off... I saw myself in her rear-view. WOW ! then I realized I was dripping from head to toe. It felt like even my blood had frozen Arrrr!!!
And now as I'm done drying my hair, I think .... such days come rarely in my life.
Okay, it was chilly, along with the "Shruti-Effect" ... abusing everyone who came in our way.  But nevertheless, that was something I can never forget.
It was probably the first time that I had enjoyed winter rain this much !
*Disfrutar de la vida* (:
