Things a 20 + lady wants from her life.

Well, let’s do a list since it is a trend and we have  lost interest in reading 200-500 words at a stretch.

 1.      A (CONSTANT) Need for inner peace.

Reaching 20’s means mid-life crisis, identity crisis and a constant urge to give up on dreams and purpose and do nothing but sleep throughout the day.

2.      A bucket list full of things to do

When you reach 20 things like travelling, shopping and doing something bizarre takes over the mind space and forms a bucket list which you give yourself your entire 30’s to strike off.

3.      A balance between work/ student life and Family life.

Your dream job for sure leaves you with minimum or no time at all to strike a conversation with your family. Goals for you change from hustle to video chat with family over the weekend.

4.      Managing the funds

The feeling when you can sort your own bills out and manage the expenses without having to ask for help from the male counterparts is “L.E.G.E.N.D.A.R.Y”

5.      Giving the parents the real peace they deserve

Your parents have toiled hard, really hard to get you so far. Give them the peace of mind that you have got your act together and you would manage to survive.

THE SPICY REVENGE

She sat in the Starbucks cafe, sipping her coffee and staring out of the window. The blood stained knife lay next to her handbag, covered with her blue silk scarf. . She finally had the last laugh. Annie’s family consisted of husband Joseph and her mother in law Brenda. Joseph D’Souza gave his entire life to Azure Limited and always the promotions went to those who were close and cosy with the boss. This made him very depressed and affected his work too. Annie too faced problems at home for mother in law and her favourite rooster were always hatching plans as to how Annie’s life could be

. made miserable .Joseph hadn’t lost his hopes yet and had decided to call his boss over for dinner. He requested Annie to make Chicken biryani for his boss such that he could impress him.   Annie had her heart set to making the entire dinner party a huge success. Right from selecting the flower arrangements to the cutlery she had made mental notes for each thing possible. Brenda was the typical mother in law who feared that her son would get distant from her due to the influence of his wife. She would constantly along with her favourite rooster create chaos which would be left behind for Annie to clear While Annie toiled hard for preparing the Biryani ,Brenda conspired against her. She set out to make the evening a spicy one, a really spicy one. As the night progressed, Annie and Joseph hosted his boss and his family and served them food, wine and much more. Mr Ahuja was madly love in with the Biryani and also asked his Mrs to get the recipe for the same.

Brenda was waiting for her rooster to come around for his food as he usually would by the time the cuckoo clock would strike 10:00. It was already past ten and he was nowhere to be seen. She cried out for Roger the rooster across the entire neighbourhood and he was nowhere to be seen and even got into a fight with neighbours as they always considered roger a nuisance.

As the days passed life at the D’Souza household went back to normal. One fine evening Joseph came running home and called out for Annie. His euphoria levels were sky high and he could barely breathe. Finally he had been promoted to the post of Assistant manager. A promotion long due and a promotion which was driven be the fragrance of the wonderful biryani which refuses to go away from the taste buds of Mr Ahuja .

Brenda was happy and the same time shocked as to how anybody could a very spicy biryani which was laced by a huge amount of red chilli powder. Anyways putting her curiosity aside she joined the celebrations of her son’s promotion.

Annie today sat at Starbucks café sipping her black coffee with no sugar smiling and thought of how she butchered Roger to save Joseph’s reputation and at the same time got even with Brenda. Beneath her newly gifted Zara blue colour scarf lay the weapon or should I say a souvenir to Annie’s victory against schemes hatched by Brenda.

THE WATERY GRAVE !

On 29 October 1886, a lease indenture for 999 years was made between Maharaja of Travancore, Vishakham Thirunal and Secretary of State for India for Periyar irrigation works. The lease agreement was signed by Dewan of Travancore V Ram Iyengar and State Secretary of Madras State (under British rule) J C Hannington. This lease was made after constant pressure on Travancore King by the British for 24 years. The lease indenture inter alia granted full right, power and liberty to construct, make and carry out on the leased land and to use exclusively when constructed, made and carried out all such irrigation works and other works ancillary thereto to Secretary of State for India (now Tamil Nadu). The agreement was to give 8000 acres of land for the reservoir and another 100 acres to construct the dam. And the tax for each acre was 5 RS per year. When India became independent, the lease got expired. 

THE HINDU  reports "Tamil Nadu wants the dam's storage capacity to be increased by raising the dam height - from 136 feet (41.5 m) to 142 feet (43 m). Irrigation needs have shot up in Tamil Nadu. 

Kerala, worried that a strong earthquake might damage the dam and cause widespraed destruction, is seeking a new dam and has offered to fund and build it. Tamil Nadu doesn't agree. "

The Tamil Nadu govt has risked the entire Kerala states  security in order to increase the irrigation capacity of the state .  Kerala state is ready to fund and build the new dam . People , it is about time that we respond to the death threat this watery grave has  put us into .
