Digital World

Life has become so easy nowadays,everything is just a click away. Groceries, clothes, kitchen items, medicines, doctor consultations, everything. Sometimes its really surprising that all this things which were once unimaginable are true today. Its good in one way that all this essentials are just a click away and during emergency its quiet handy.

But to really think about it in a way it is making man lazy. We don't bother anymore to go out and get things when everything is available from the comfort of our house. We just sit there and one click gives us what we need.

We don't bother to go to those small shopkeepers and bargain with them anymore or go to a Sunday market to get those fresh vegetables, which was once fun. There are people who still do that but not everybody. Its nice to have technology around us helping us but sometimes its just a boom to the society. I mean everything comes with its bad and good, its natural.

Not criticizing these things because I'm also one of them who uses it very often but sometimes it just comes to my mind that how much we have evolved and how far we have come in this world, from stone age to this industrial and technological era.

A Night to Remember

A dress for a little girl is always very exciting similarly I was really excited about a dress when I was a little girl but liking that dress turned into something else. Its around Dir ga puja times and buying new dresses is the best part. I had that dress in my mind for quiet a long time, but due to my exams going on at the same time I couldn't get that dress but before my last exam there was a two day gap and me and my mom decided to go for shopping and get the dress I wanted for so long.

As decided we went to the shop and I got to try on the dress as I'm trying on the dress in the trial room the lights went out and the room started shaking and I got confused and scared not knowing what is happening and tried opening the door which seemed to have been jammed and my mom was trying g her best to open the door from outside but the shop owner seemed to pull her out to save her and I had to wait for a while yo open the door. I was scared even more then anytime in my life. As soon as I came out my mom hugged me and told me it was a earthquake which had caused great havoc in the whole town of Gangtok.

In this earthquake people had lost a lot of life there home and many things. Its was a 6.9 Richter scale earthquake and had left the whole place destroyed. It was around 6pm on 18th September2011, a day no one in Gangtok can ever forget.
