These days, my biological clock is reversed,days have become nights and nights have become days.Waking up at 12 PM, getting ready for lunch by 12:30PM, coming to room then reading newspaper for some time and again its time to put an alarm for 4:30PM and sleep.Waking up at 4:30PM, and waking my roommate makes it 4:45PM when we leave for evening snacks. Post return its time to take a bath.Today there was a slight change in schedule with me going to bath at 7PM.Unfortunately there is no water heater on our floor so we need to go to first floor if we want to take bath in hot water.As soon as I entered the bathroom area, the first thing I heared was sound of leaking water, coming out of the shower pipe in bathroom number one at the corner at the entry.Ever since I have started preparing for Civil Services I have become a little more attentive and cautious of the things around me.I always regard water as a precious resource,with a very little proportion of the total being drinkable.I had to fix the damaged pipe, as the plumber would have come not before ten in morning and by that time the tank would have been empty, leaving students devoid of their ablutions in morning.I found the solution in using a support for the toppled pipe, I searched for some things here and there but could not find anything pertinent to the purpose.I went to ground floor, there after a little looking around, I got my thing, It was a bamboo stick around 3 feet long, I thought it would do the job for me and luckily after little manouvering the task was complete.Once toppled arm being upright now.I do not know why people do it??...I know its a time of economic turmoil but why to release the pent up frustration on the innocent shower pipe.And if your hands are itching so much then you should go and play Tikawando or go to border and help our forces fight the terrorists or go and beat Ramalinga Raju who had tarnished the Image of India Inc.Contrary to my belief there was more to it, the pipe again toppled over and water running out this time more speedly,I do not know the time since it was going on but I found it again at 11PM.Fortunately the bamboo stick was lying there only and I had to do lesser work this time.But are we blind??....can not some one who enters make it out that it can not be used right now, come on Guys its evening time all the bathrooms are vacant, if you find things not being fine, use the next one.There is no necessity to bath in the beleaguered bathroom, only we will be facing problems in morning because of it.Small small things together make big impact.Keep your eyes open, think for a moment before you embark upon anything.Instead of ignoring it, the guys who had noticed it earlier should have given a call to the maintenance, with the notice containing number of maintenance related offices being fixed at the bathroom entrance. Jesus, its height of negligence and irresponsibility.Please be a little more careful, aware and responsible, its for good of all of us.
