BOMB BLASTS IN DELHI

My diary,
11 pm,13th September 2008
13th September 2008,6.10 pm...1st bomb blast in the capital of the country...followed by 6 more in the most posh areas...“kahin par log mare hue the..kahin par pair kate the...”-is how a local person describes the scene...a small kid who saw the whole incident kidnapped by the terrorists...18 dead and 100 injured...ALERT in all the metropolitan cities...
All the news channels flashing the same...terrorized ppl...IT FREAKED ME OUT.I mean its not as if there hasn’t been any such bomb blast incidents earlier...its just that i havnt ever felt so strongly before...maybe if i wud hav been in kgp right now...busy in my own campus life...cut off from the rest of the world...i wudnt have felt the same...but when i actually saw the news 2day...i was so freaked...i mean...are you kidding me!!!wats going on??? Why???normally we (or atleast me) are so busy in our own personal lives...personal problems...emotional issues... we hardly seem to care...but everything seems so trivial all of a sudden...i mean...there are people out there being killed and injured for no reason...for no fault of their own... how important does your stupid fight with one of your stupid friends or an an electrical lab that you screwed up last week seem now!!!
I mean “WAKE UP” !! its the real “big bad world”...6.10 pm-when i was sitting back at home peacefully n having my favourite “chocolate pyramid” ...der wer ppl dying in delhi...
Its only in CID (thanks to sony entertainment television) that i had seen a bomb squad ...all dressed...trying to diffuse a bomb which cud go off any minute...and its not funny or exciting or thrilling or scary or gross...or anything close to what ive ever felt...i never realised the gravity of the situation before...
I just feel so whierd about this whole thing...maybe ive become a LIL or lets say a LOT more aware and conscious..and i feel so shaken...
