DISCLAIMER: This note is a tad different from my other ones, cos it’s a bit serious. I just wanted to express my view and lift the dampened spirits of those AIDS victims in my class and everywhere else, who’re afraid of the rain.
It’s raining, it’s monsoon, and it’s the best time of the year.There are countless things we can do during this time.If you’re the reclusive type, then staring out the window, watching the rain fall from the sky is as pleasing a vision as anything. 

The Recluse.. He was allegedly peeing out the window
If you’re the happy-go-lucky kind of person, an evening spent dancing away on the road or in a park with your closest friends feels much better than sitting in your home in all that monotony.

The Happy-go-lucky Man. Who refuses to appear before the camera. WE CAUGHT HIM! The Long lost twin brother of a well-known Indian opener-cum-wicketkeeper. “AeKe-AeKe-…”
Or, if you’re the tree-hugging environmentalist, this is the best time of the year for you, cos you don’t have to worry about all those plants not getting enough water, and add to that, this is the time when you can encourage your neighbourhood to indulge in the angelic activity of water harvesting!

Tree-huggers! Sorry for the crude editing 
If you’re the romantic type, you would well know that a kiss or hug shared in rainy weather goes a long way in expressing your closeness with the other. Just like in the movies!


The ultimate copule… they live together, sleep next to each other, eat together, practically do everything together (except shitting, which they might even start doing if u tell them to) Here they can be seen talking to each other over the phone, trying to maintain distance from each other so that nobody suspect them…Naughty boys! 
Playing football when the heavens are raining down on you is what any hardcore football fan would die for. Though it reduces the friction below yourfeet, making you run slower and more carefully, it also makes the ground softer so that it acts like a cushion in case you fall! The ample humidity in the air ensures your body isn’t starved of that life-giving fluid we call WATER.

FOOTBALL!!!!! Notice that its not raining, and I’m not even in the picture. 
On the other hand, heavy rainfall may lead to flooding of roads, which disrupts traffic flow. Pothole formation also occurs on these roads more often than not. This adds to our already prevalent traffic woes and makes life difficult for those who need to commute a lot between their offices and homes.
Also, there definitely are diseases to watch out for during monsoon.

Dengue wala…..! Guess who it is..
The number of Dengue and typhoid cases rise exponentially during this period.This occurs because the large pools of stagnant water visible throughout thecity, act as perfect incubators for mosquito eggs. Hence their population increases at alarming rates, increasing the chance that you will be bitten by acarrier of a disease.
Still, these reasons are not to fret over. Everything under the sun comes with its own set of pros and cons. Take for example driving. You are well aware of the dangers on Delhi roads and the frequent accidents that occur.Also, there is a high risk that somebody could inadvertently graze their vehicle against yours, leaving an ugly scratch or dent on its surface. But given these hindrances, would you suddenly quit driving altogether? 

Mmmmmmm…….
Surely not! The monsoons are meant to be enjoyed, and enjoy you must! Gods send down the rain, to grant us a break from our hectic schedules. Don’t let this gift go down the drain, so to speak! 
HAPPY MONSOONS!!
