This new zoology teacher sounds a little bit weird. I guess he tries to be funny, asking ridiculous questions like do you have jaws in your mouth �this one was particularly for me, and thank you very much the boys had a cheerful time by that- or opening another student�s mouth showing how the alimentary canal begins to give a good taste to cockroach chapter I guess.
The practical zoology class this term is about cockroaches, now the dark comedy begins when I give you this news that, there are two things I�m scared to death of, and the second one is cockroach.
Once I jumped on bookcase and then down �I was close to break my legs- just because a big cockroach had flown in.
I really don�t know how I�m going to pick one from a container full of this creature, mount it, open it� and what will happen if one of those boys �I say boys because they are truly boys, average ten years younger than me- who gave a whistle out when I entered ever finds out about that.

These days pune is rainy again, and will be this way till september. Coming from a dry city, it�s one the most beautiful things for me.
I don�t care �well almost don�t care- that everything is wet, the walls will soon have a layer of green fungi on them, and it takes days for washed clothes to get dry.

It�s a little bit chilly and I�m drinking cinnamon tea, watching the giant tree which is growing its branches inside through the window, thinking to myself could I possibly want something more at this moment?
