its the raining season...i dont like really, but i love watching the clouds!!!
Rainy season, it is the most horrible time for all people in Kuttanad. every year we experience a wonderful event of FLOOD for 2 weeks. when i was a kid, it was a kinda enjoyment.NO SCHOOL, NO STUDY - only tv and sleeping .usually the water level raises in a dramatic rate such that u may see 1 feet level water inside your room when you wake up! its not an exaggeration. its real.especially @ my home.hmmm...
it was really hard for the people over here to find something to eat because most of them were labourers and flood means no labour = no money. i had seen people from panchayat distributing KANJI AND PAYAR . Now things got changed. Every family has atleast one person working abroad and not much worry ! Good.
but this year , there is not much raining, may be it is reserved for the coming months.Now, the problem is NO ELECTRICITY. so my main events - watching tv and computer activities get affected! stupid me!!! why am i not thinking about those industries facing 25 % cut in electricity, meaning 35-50 % less production.
i got through the learners test and took part in my cousin's betrothel function. there was not much enjoyment. actually i dont know many of my relatives. there are a lot...ho..
Life is better now. i feel engaged in something everytime.
And I am gaining weight. want to play badminton but the weather/.
A silly thing: I NOTICED IT JUST NOW- whenever i select some dress for me , its either a green or a white!!!

Saw your blog while searching for pics of Kuttanad. My name is Thomas T. Chavara. Originally from Kainakary, settled in Kochi, presently in Ireland. Reading your blog about Kuttanad, I suddenly recounted the same events narrated to me by my father during his younger days. I never happened to live in Kainakary except during my short summer vacations. Your blog just took me many years back! I just simply love Kuttanad in spite of many a daily challenges: mosquitos, no tap water, power cuts. I happen to view the contrast with cities, life in Kuttanad is so simple, isn't it?
Keep blogging. I have mine in Yahoo 360 although I'm not very active these days.
