Monsoon At Manipal

Monsoon season has started in Manipal or generally at the west coastal areas of India.
According to findings, Manipal is one of the places in India that receives the heaviest raindrops.
When the rain season arrives in Manipal, what the things that the students will expect to encounter?
  • First of all,is the heavy pouring so they need to get umbrella and raincoats.

  • Second but the worst of all, the white FUNGUS growing in the hostel cupboard and even worse ,on the clothes if you are not careful.
Yes,it is Fungus is the worse thing that anyone in Manipal will expect to encounter when the monsoon arrives.
Why is that so?
The obvious reasons are the moisture level will rise to the peak, providing the suitable environment for them to grow.
The another worse part is that they do not sell the moisture absorber around here.
Example like this I had these to bring from Malaysia.

The fungus and the smell of it, are the important things that the people in Manipal especially the students have to combat.

The common sights in Manipal during rainy days are the umbrellas and raincoats.
It is an must for everyone in Manipal who ever do not wish to not to get wet in the rain.

Pictures are examples and not the scene from Manipal( maybe later I could snap them, I will upload)





That is the life in Manipal, one of the nature blessed place.

NO TRESPASSING!!

Today I went to Manipal's nature park which is called End-Point.
As I was walking there, I was thinking about the things happen before around 2hours.
Actually I was scolding myself for let things burst out such way.
I should have been more understanding about the things.I should have not behaved such way.
Perhaps the reflection does not have the same angle after all.
Common truth, your mirror reflection is faces opposite you and cannot be superimposed.

BAck to my End - Point story,
So after I reach there, I decided to take the seldom taken route. It is a route with stone and sands.
Reason?
I want to see the inner End Point that my friends were talking about.

So as I was walking, no human presence was spotted on the way but human tracks and leftovers can be seen.
I started to think about the World of Warcraft game that played before coming, in such forest I should find some creeps. Childish
So I reach the middle of the first route, there was rest area.
Well there was a rest area, and at last human presence, a group of them.
As I was walking towards them, I kept on observing them and realised that they were consuming alcohol and drunk.
So, to avoid unnecessary incidents I changed the route which is a shortcut to get into the other side of the route without they see me.
Job well done.
I continue walking until I reach another rest area with a couple who were enjoying their lonely moments.
While I was walking, I noticed that the rest area is the last one but there was another route continues with an entrance and it was lined by cylindrical metal stands with gaps between them.
I decided to go through there because I was still searching for the place which I heard from my friends that it needs to cross some jungle.
The first step was kind of rocky with big rocks.
After few steps, my ears catch some peculiar sound,hissing in the bushes.
I looked at the side, it was a yellowish gold and black spots snake crawling inside the bushes.
Oh god, at that moment I only thought of running and I did that.
I ran out of the place and after crossed the entrance, I tried to act normal as the couple is still there.
I am sure that they saw me running.
Then, I changed the route and entered the park with jogging tracks, fountains, flowers and all.
I already been to this place and I did not find the place my friends were talking about.
I sat there for 1hour and observing the people around there and their attics.
Then, my end point trip is over.
Oh ya, some gruesome fights of dogs and horn fights of the cows.
The main thing I want to tell you is, if  you see a snake, it means no trespassing  and if you did enter, you better have some preparation if you do not want to die there.
and definitely RUN....







Plants in the Hostel Room

Hello everyone, everyone often have this doubt whether to have plants in their hostel rooms. You know how a typical hostel room looks like right? If you don't let me describe it,
You will have basically like a room that you usually find in normal houses, to be more specific; a hostel room looks like your bedroom  that you might have now but a little smaller version with a bathroom attached.
Well I am living in a single room but I often feel like living in a concrete jungle whenever I look outside the window in my room and it will make me feel so empty and lonely.
Then I decided to have plants in my room right away to fill the emptiness and also for companionship.
I brought four pots of plants; 3 flowering plants and 1 non-flowering plant. In that, two are outdoors and the other two are indoor plants.
I placed the outdoors outside my window and the other two in my room along my yoga mat.
Here some of the pictures..





But later I remembered some stuffs I learned back in my elementary school that having plants in rooms are not good as they will share the oxygen with us at night.
Thinking of this I had this difficulties in sleeping and sometimes I may switch on the lights at night unknowingly ,so that they can do photosynthesis to release oxygen. But later i try to loosen up the things in my mind and started to sleep without switch on the light. The stuff I heard is not that bad till I could suffocate. I Google about this and came to conclusion that one or four are okay rather than having a jungle in my room. Although they use oxygen in dark but they do give me enough oxygen supply while I am studying.
So that's how they become my companions in my room.
