DANGER !

Yesterday was just killing time browsing when suddenly heard the BREAKING NEWS .... serial bomb blasts in B'lore . Really shocking news....within a couple of minutes new blasts at different areas were discovered . Thank god,no much harm to people and properties . 1 killed and 8 injured as of now OR as revealed ! seems a negligible number but it is 2 much for the friends and families of those victims . Innocent lifes were risked by this unfortunate act . Everything so well planned, makes 1 tremble!
No place is safe to live . South India esp Karnataka was supposed to b some peaceful place but its no more that. over a few decades , B'lore has been a hot spot . Being the garden city , IT capital , hosting people from all over the world , life in B'lore is not at all easy . We all know about the traffic conditions there and problems finding a house! still, my experiences there :
I wanted to look for an accomodation in b'lore in a place somewhat closer to my workplace .went for a hunt . people say its so easy to get a PG acco there,house there that this ! I agree , V do get, but the point is ....r those places worth living !? almost all the PG's I saw were 3/4 sharing in a room.common bathroom. I tell u guys u get a cot and a shelf for urself .Apart from that u r lucky if u get place to rest ur feet! This is the condition...highly commercial! well no comments on that coz its the way of making a living for them!with this comes ur adjustment with the rest of them in the room . well better not say anything on that. That depends on the situation and how u carry it on.some twin sharing and single rooms r also available.The problem is u'll not get the assurance of safety and security . well lakhs of people r living and continue to live , thats a different story but for me and girls like me its highly impossble.Also have heard some stories of PG's being raided with many suspicions....this that....fingers crossed! but cant say what kind of people r staying with us, coz as i said B'lore is the host for every kind of people from everywhere !
Well next looked for some single bedroom houses also as v friends could stay together . Far better that PG's but has problems of its own kind.1. high rents , cant help . 2. again the the environment problem .3. Gas stove and cooking problem ! 1 house was okok...affordable rent , well situated, decent owners....but distance problem! another house....again rent ok,area ok, owner ok....when v were abt to leave that place thinking this is the last search, noticed that there is not a single window for the entire house ! ooooooooof god! such a poor ventilation. V would die if there is no power for some 2 hours! and there is so frequent power cuts these days! another 1 , very good looking, neat, they have actually modified a car garrage to a room cum kitchen !but still ok coz of the finely ordered things, but rent 8K! another single room attached to a house, again no place left if u put a cot!
There is no choice but to adjust! but will there not b a limit for such adjustment! In the heavy traffic of B'lore, cant even imagine travelling daily from relatives place....1 day also tried that, boarding bus no.201 . bus started at 9.20....i reached my work place at 11.30...this is common in b'lore but i cant even imagine myself travelling daily for 4 hours hanging in the bus !
And now to all this , the problem of terrorism has been added ! All the best B'lore !

Blore was so beautiful...

I hate going to Blore now.

Speaking of terrorism,that comes with the 'Global hotspot' tag.

Anyway, none of this must get you to be scared of your surely successful future in the city. All the best
