Another 7 days for college to commence, no more a freshie, and no more anxiousness.
6 days and im gonna be off to the same old super-hot, super-humid city down south. Mixed feelings running in my mind. A part of me longing for college, to get relieved from boredom, while the other part, not willing to leave my mum for the next 4 months. But as they say, separation is inevitable, and besides, who wouldn't want to forget the lousy vacation i had this summer..bah..
Moving on, from the senti, to the disturbing. Lately, ive been watching a lot of indian men getting really despo. You switch on the TV one day, you hear that xyz coach has been sacked, for asking sexual favours from his players. A couple of players get out of the closet ,out of no where, and scream out loud that they were sexually harassed by the man. Then a camera man reveals a pick of the coach getting intimate with a thai lady in his hotel room. The next day you switch on your TV to hear that a national weight lifting coach gets sacked because of a similar sex scandal with one of his disciples.
I mean c'mon!! give me a break. As said rightly by Bipasha Basu 'Indian men need to get a hang of their lust'. After 'Chakde India' in 07', Women's Hockey got the much deserved respect from all over India. SRK, though im not a big fan of his, revolutionized the concept of coaching. People expected such wonders from all coaches after that movie. 3 years later this coach goes on to do something exactly opposite .I often wonder how a man can stoop down to such ridiculously low levels, as to get into sex scandals with a had full of his students. I mean, 1 ,understandable, even if he's married. 2, is horrible, but the whole team is way beyond the limit. One can sense the level of discontentment in his married life. And for a man of that age, i must say he has an incredibly high sex drive. Today being the day of 'guru poornima' coincidentally, I guess its a nice example of how the 'guru-shishya' chemistry works in the 'kalyug'
Now, im disturbed by all that's being shown on TV, what do i do? I switch to the internet. And what do i see on youtube?? this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPVG2dt8tS0&feature=related . Criss Hansen, a TV personality, does this show for NBC, where he holds string operations to catch sexual predators, indulging in pedophile activities. He does an episode in California, where he sets up a trap for men who deceive children over the net. He catches not 2, or 3, but 4 such cases, involving Indian men, working in USA. All of them call themselves 'software engineers'. One of them even claims that he's got a 'phd, and a lot of respect in the society'.A real sad story, for us Indians. There are people who'v made India the famous land it is amongst the western countries, with its culture, religion and diversity. And then there are people like these that are persistently take all that away in seconds.
Some of these things make you really start doubting the very existence of God. What did these young girls do to deserve a punishment as bad as this?? Im firmly with this notion that's risen lately, to punish sexual predators with a death sentence. With me, im getting all ready to pack up, and leave Pune. I'll miss all puneri friends. Some of whom had great plans for the summer that never materialized. And some of whom broke a toe, to be restricted from enjoying summer the way they expected to. Dasvidaniya..'See you l8r' ;)
