HALF A DAY WITHOUT ELECTRICITY....

Its sunday n ten in d mornin n am busy orkuttin ,when all of a sudden there is a power cut !!my first reaction wud be ,SHIT!!! cant this wait til i finish commentin for these pics?!?...hmph!!then once d U P S hurries me to switch it off wid its incessant beeps ,along with my brothers voice boomin across d hall sayin,"Sindhu switch off d comp NOW!!!!!"in a hurry i Alt+F4 everything,i switch off mains n i take a small walk inside the house...As i step outside the room,my grand mom whines cos she jus missed watchin her favourite serial ,i go past d tv n sad her to my bro who is busy wid his mobile tokin to someone seriously...leavin him alone i peep into my dads room who is havin short nap i let him rest,i jus give a quick a glance at ma neighbours house...gud so its not jus my place(mean me) n i go to my mom who is in d kitchen ...nw she is frettin cos d power cut has wrecked her cookin plans...i can c d half ground batter, n electric cooker emmitin no light..she just leaves everythin as it as n sits in d dinin chair....bro enters now n is frustrated cos d battery in his mobile has drained ...quiet contradictorily am bein yelled cos he claims that i drained his battery by playin quadra pop !As if i knew that there wud be a power cut ...Now this is gettin heights...he always vents his feelings on me...he....

             Ok back to power cut ...Dad wakes up cos it is too sultry to sleep in a room wid no fan...he is suprised to see all 3 of us in d dining table ....now that has been my dads wish !all of us sittin together n havin a meal ...v weren havin a meal although v were jus sittin together each pensive abt wat to do next ....So wt next....dad who is a lil elated to have all of us together starts tokin abt d importance of electricity...zzzz....i get a call YIPPEE!! i give a dirty look at my bro which says I-still-have-enough-charge-in-my-mob!!n he jus turns away..poor he...Its one of my frens she updates me of d fact tht there is no electricity at her place either ....v vent abt it for a while and then v go on wid our usual gossips abt who is goin out wid who... who broke up wid who...n how break ups ve become a trend...hw hurtful it is...how......

             ok again bk to power cut...i go on tokin wid her n many other frens who ve been callin me, conversations brimmin n bubblin wid interstin topics ...Although its a lil hard to tok wid full enthusiasm cos there is an eerie silence prevailin out there...so i jus contain myself n i go ahead wid d never endin stories...All of a sudden my mobile  lets out a beep indicatin me to put it for charge ...as if i wudn...1100 its jus tht i cant!!!pl don drain pl don drain ...i keep tellin this as if it ws some self hypnosis...but it is ruthless...it gives me three long beeps and it shows me a blank screen !god!! now i feel thoroughly dumb cud have saved some for later!!sheesh am snapped ties wid d entire world outside my house!!!

             i again get out of my room to c mom n grand mom makin a conventional meal without dependin on the electric cooker,grinder,or d mixie...Dad is engrossed in a book ,bro jus zoomed outta d house wid his bike (lucky guys!)there is no alternative left!!no comp,no mob,no mp3 ,no tv ..hold on may be i can read somethin!!i take a novel which i bought long bk but kept it the way it ws at d book stall...i read read n read till mom calls me to hav lunch....bro comes home by now all tire n weary ...v r in d table together havin our meal...dads long term wish is fulfilled...after lunch i again go back to read and i finsh d novel .....not bad my readin prowess r still intact...i don remeber the last time i finished a book in a couple of sittings...am driven to sleep n when i am up all i c is darkness which i saw when i ws asleep....

            i step outta d room after pushin n bumpin on to things ...i see a candle light flickerin again in todays most used room.. All of them again sittin n havin casual chats abt frens,work place, etc..i join in and v tok tok n tok all of a sudden i realise its been ages since i spoke to ppl at home like this...in spite of d heat n d damn mosquitoes, i did have a gud tym wid my family...v even spoke abt how less v ve been speakin off late ...hmm all cos v r a wrath to electricity...

           v decided to make it a point to talk on daily basis from ten to eleven...mom again served dinner for d day and v were amidst dinner when the power re gained....we all sighed a relief unanimously  n continued wid our meal....it suddenly striked me ...1100 needs to be charged ...dunno if it ws some kind of telepathy tht worked between me n my bro...together we bith headed straight to our respective mobile phones put them for charge and we impatiently switched them on to check out d new messages(of which we were flooded)...my fren who i last spoke to calls to update me again..."hey current vanditchu"!!sweet!!!then my plate still in hand mob in charge n in my ear i chew my food n simultaneously listen to her tokin....who on d other side is doin d same thing... 

          by the time i finish my meal grandmom is back to watch d last bit of her fav serial,mom again grindin d batter.dad tunin on to d radio for d days news,am  done talkin wid her n i go to bed...dawn n dusk pass by its now its ten pm me on orkut eatin my dinner simultaneously, bro wid his mob, dad listenin to AIR news,mom fidgettin wid d old mixie, gran mom cryin over d serial...now how much influence do edison n tesla have upon us???may be  v shud wait till d next power cut!!
