And everything stops because…

There is nothing to do this day. There are no shops open, no movies shown in theaters, no cable on TV (nothing except Kannada channels), and no public transport. People will probably start pelting stones if anyone goes out anyways. And all this, because of some dumb bandh. Something that we all are made to follow whether we like it or not. Because we don’t have a choice.

What’s the whole point of it (the bandh) anyway? I am just sitting here doing nothing at all. Even the Internet connection is bad. It keeps switching off every five minutes. Why stop at cable, and public transport? Cut even the phone connection. Cut the Internet. Cut the electricity. Cut off everything. That would make so much of sense. Then we can all sit like prisoners in our own houses and do nothing. Then you would be happy, won’t you? Of course you will! That must be the whole point of your sad existence.

Most of my friends don't even know why the bandh is even being called. It’s all crap. In this age we are forced to sit in our own houses and do nothing. Ugh, whatever.

I am extremely bored. I really have nothing to do. I just finished a book called Schindler’s list. (Need to watch the movie now.) It’s really good.

This post I had written somewhere around noon. I could not post it; coz when I wanted to post it the net was not connecting. Hence I did some other stuff, umm, like eating! And then, I thought I could sleep for an hour or so, and later think of something to do. But! But, but, but I slept for a damn five hours!! I cannot believe it. I am sure that I cannot sleep tonight after sleeping so much. And so now I am wondering what to do the whole night!

And because of this whole thing, I will be sleepy in the morning when I am expected to work! Gosh!

The only reason why I got up was coz my mom came to my room wondering what I was up to. She saw me sleeping and started yelling at me. And then I got up. And my eyes went towards the window. And it was dark. I was wondering why she is waking me so early in the morning. I looked at the watch. It was 7:30. This day sucked!
