Snooring???...nahhh..sshhh


My cousin has a habit of snooring and talking in the night, sometimes in the afternoon too.To my surprise he talks only about cricket.One day in the midnight he suddenly started shouting(may be on fielders who were misfielding *he he he*) and suddenly everyone in the house got up thinking someone is breaking into the house.The funniest part is that,if we tell him that he was talking in his sleep or snooring he will not beleive and he thinks that we are bluffing.Recently, we got a chance to show him the truth with proof. He was having a mid-day nap and he was snooring loudly,myself and my bro got an idea and we started recording his snoors in the mobile.When we were still recording he suddenly got up and realised what we were doing.He was shocked to see what was happening.We stopped recording and we both were literaly on the floor rolling all over the house in laughter listening to his snoors on mobile and my cousin was really pissed off and hurt seeing us.

Eventhough i laughed, felt very bad for what I did and deleted that recording.Still,he is so angry on us that he has stoped taking his mid-day naps.

okie i have got one more snooring story to tell..
One of my Dad's friend works in police department.As he a had a very tiring day he went to his brothers house near to the station to take some rest.After chating for a while, he went to the room in the upstairs to sleep and within minutes he was fast asleep and he started snooring..In the evening his niece came back from school and she went upstairs to play there.Suddenly she heard a strange noise coming from that room.Without a clue and with curiosity she opened the rooms door and the snooring sound increased echoing all over the room.She was terrified thinking it was a ghost and she screamed and fainted itseems.Because of that shock, she had fever for two days even after her parents told that it was her Uncle.. And, it took her some months to step into that room again.

As a matter of fact,i too was scared hearing his snoors for the first time, when we went for a family trip together.So u can imagine the condition of that small girl..he he

10 Rupees!!!

Recently i took an Auto from Garuda mall to St.Jones.When the autowalla started, the meter showed 10 Rs.When I reached St.Johns the meter charge was 28 bucks so i gave him 30 as minimum charge was 12 and he had started off with 10 Rs.But to my surprise he started asking 10 Rs more.I was a bit confused.I checked the meter again and it showed exactly 28.I argued with him that it is exactly 30 if the minimum charge is 12.Dont know what logic he was using, he just went on asking me to give him 10 more Rs.As i was in a hurry and was in no mood to fight i gave him 40 bucks eventough i knew that he was cheating me.when i got into the bus my consious was telling me that i did a wrong thing by giving up.My mind was spinning with a lot of ways that i would have handled the situation.I really got angry on myself as many times i let go things like this and i know that by doing this i am encouraging ppl like him.This is not the first time i have experienced this.According to me out of 10 people, 6 belong to this category.There are some auto drivers who are of helping nature, they help u when u are in trouble and they do not demand anything extra and sometimes they refuse to take even when u give them.I respect those people.Eventhough it is a matter of 10 bucks i felt that if i would have given that money to someone who really needs it like a disabled person it would have made a big difference to him atleast for that day.I really dont know how much he would have earned like this by cheating ppl.As a person who respect money i have realised my stupidity and have decided not to give up next time when i face this situation.

Evergreen Trees!!!

Next to my house and besides the main road there are two big Banyan trees,they are called twin trees.I can see them whenever i open my room's window.They are like my immideate neighbors *he he he*.Every morning i get up hearing the chirping sounds of the birds from those trees.I dont know from how long these trees are there but i am sure that they are very old.My mom always tells that she used to sit and relax under the shades of these trees along with her friends in her school days.I used to play aroud them when i was small and whenever i was bored i used to pester my mom to put the rope-swing hanging from those trees and i used to enjoy my swinging along with my friends. Lot of birds and squirrels nest in these trees and in spring season its a favorite place for monkeys too, as they like to eat the small red fruits from thees trees..

After two or three days these trees will be cut in the name of widening roads.I will surely miss them every morning.As i imagined my day without these trees i felt very sad that i cannot see them physically anymore so, i immideatly took the pictures of this trees to see them alive atleast in pictures.

God only knows what will happen to the remaining trees in the near future in the name of infrastructure,good transportation and for other selfish purposes.I am sure the Bangalore's Garden city image will not fit it in few years.We hear only about chopping trees but nowhere we hear about planting trees.I strongly feel that government should take steps to compensate the lose of cutting trees by taking initiative as soon as possible by growing more trees,creating awareness among people about the adverse effects of deforestation and encouraging people to plant more trees.
