Rain Which Spoiled Everything

1:45 P.M, 14 October 2010

Sky in Bangalore looks fine. No sign of rain, clouds- moderate, humidity negligible and temperature pleasant. After reading these two lines everyone will think that I am going to elaborate the pleasant weather in Bangalore but who knows that I will be leading you to the worst rainfall recorded in Bangalore(230mm).

5 Mins Later

Clouds became black and the weather started showing symptoms of rain. Drizzling begins and the weather gets windy. It starts raining, people rush to their balconies to remove the clothes and children playing downstairs start looking for shelter below trees and slides. Water coming from the rooftops looked like mini waterfalls. Due to the humongous force of water, small streams of water were formed on the bare ground next to my appartment. On the road - pedestrians coming from shops and buildings used polybags to protect themselves from the heavy rains.

Impact

All the plants in my sight were destroyed by the rain. Probably all the crops grown in the area might have got spoiled by the excessive rainfall. The biggest impact was the ruined houses which lay on mud and the people living in might have suffered a lot. The rain has caused a lot of trouble for many and good for some dying for water.

English - The Global Langauge

In a country like India people speak over 20 languages. It is very difficult to be fluent in all the languages. People have to choose a language which will be known and fluent to all. Not only in India but in many other countries this is the problem.

Living in a metropolis city I myself experience the significance of English in our everyday lives. From a peon to a chairmen almost everyone uses English to communicate though some of them might not be so fluent in the language. Your command over English signifies your vocabulary of English (obvious), your concentration level and your thinking abilities. Many countries like U.S.A, England, Australia etc have chosen English as their national language . Over the years English has spread all over the world, more and more people are becoming fluent in this language and the significance of English is increasing day by day. Many people in India wish to become fluent in English and use many ways to do so , some of them are following :-

1. Joining English speaking classes.
2. Talking in English to their children and family members.
3. Writing articles and essays for a good vocabulary.
4. Learning new words in English everyday.

Have you ever noticed that when you leave your house for school/office/ for doing shopping and till you come back you mostly communicate with teachers and friends, employers and shopkeepers respectively in English (This statement is only applied for developed cities or countries). Thus English can be recognized as the Global Language.

RoboKill - A Game Review

I play games to entertain myself. I discovered RoboKill when I went to my friends house to return his notebook and saw him playing RoboKill on miniclip.com. I asked him about the game and he enthusiastically replied that it is a very adventurous and violent game. He knew that I liked violent games and asked me to try it out.

Robokill is about a Robot which has been sent from a starship to a battle station controlled by droids or enemy robots. The commander of the star ship has ordered the Robot to destroy all the communication centers of the battle ship. The Robot is loaded with lot many shields and destructive weapons. The battle ship has been divided into many rooms. Some of the rooms have teleport machine which can take the robot to any other room. Destroyers are your biggest enemies, they are loaded with shields and guard the headquarters of the battleship. If you beat them then you get their shields. Some of the droids are reproductive which keep on giving droids out of them. There is a inventory, a map of the battle ship and a shop to buy new weapons for your robot.

The ship has been overrun by hostile robots and you are their only hope! Eliminate the enemies; remember to upgrade your weapons and armor.

" Growing Plants "- Not an easy job.

People think that growing plants on a particular piece of land is an easy task for the farmers but actually it is not. I challenge you to earn some money by growing vegetables and flowers in your house, this can be your summer assignment. Think 'bout it, you will have to spend a lot of money on seeds and different investments for different requirements of the plant. The profit might be little or negligible. Taking a risk on a small piece of land is not an issue but on a large scale -thats something, specially for the poor farmers who don't have a default job or earnings.

I have tried this and experienced the result. I had a craze of growing plants in my house since I was young, though my family doesn't have such an Eco- friendly background. I took a challenge of growing coriander (these kind of vegetables are easy to grow) . I was very irritated because the plants hadn't started growing from past one week, although coriander is one of the most fast growing plants among the vegetables. I almost lost hope but finally after sometime time I could see the sprouts coming out of the soil, popping like smiles out of the ground and then all of them started growing tall. I have put a picture showing the plants after 2 weeks - "patience paid off".

Growing plants can be a profitable job if done with dedication, knowledge and human coordination. 

When yours, Insult You

From the beginning I have been a low tempered guy. Getting frustrated when some members of my family or my friends insult me in front of their friends was unusually common. The fact is things always can't go the way you like and the things always can't go the way others like. Nowadays kids are different, they insult their own family members in front of their friends just to gain reputation in their friend circle or to follow the conditions of their friends circle. At that point the kid loses his control over the mind and forgets everything which will do some damage to the families reputation. He/she just gets under the control of the leader of the friend circle and follows their instruction.

These days suicides are increasing at a alarming rate . Reasons behind these suicides can be - kids not able to adjust themselves in the environment, bullying with a kid just exposed to a new environment and a kid not able to follow the conditions of his friend circle. Parents should personally ask their kids about their problems with the friend circle or environment. If a kid is not able to tell you about his problems just leave him alone and tell him to write his problems because as you know writing is one of the best ways to express yourself. Insulting a kid badly or insulting along with a group can also lead to suicides.

Best friends are not the one who let you play with their cool play-stations, they are not the one who give you money to buy junk food and let you stay for sleep overs. Best friends always are the one who help you and share there hapiness with you.
