I like Summers.Especially the summer nights.More so the breeze during summer nights.
Sadly though,Its not even March and summer is already here.In fact,it has been here for almost ten days now.I feel bad that the season in India,which when we children were so demarcated are now haywire.
I used to loved Hyderabadi winters,but somehow we no longer seem to have such Winters in most parts of the city. (places like UoH,Lingampally,BHEL have winters pretty decent as opposed to concrete jungled parts of the city.)
I know it all comes down to global warming,I know my stance in that regard.But,that is not what this post is about.Its about summers.
Nights,Mangos,Lime Juice (unlimited), Avakai (okay,alright that is Mango again,but hey,thats a different form),Sunrises,Sunsets,Ugadi, Vacation-nostalgia.I don't know if this would change few year later (the taste,not the summer) but I will always love these things about Summer!

Hyderabad seems to experience all these vagaries of weather when I am out of town. Stuff like *record rainfall*, *record heat*, *extreme chill*
I probably was too close to the city to realize whenever this happened. I have spent considerable time in Bangalore but no, it is Hyderabad that I want to recollect things about. What happened, what all did we experience in Hyderabad when we were growing up, or fairly grown up BEFORE IT GOT VULGARLY AMERICANIZED TO THE POINT OF LOSING A PART OF ITS IDENTITY, BEFORE WE GOT TOLD WHAT WAS COOL AND WHAT WAS NOT.
So, I end up recalling all the years before 2003, and between 2005-2007. What we wore, what we ate, where we hung out, who we hung out with ( thank you!), what our thoughts were, however naive.
Sorry for hijacking and doing a mini entry in your comment box. Gosh, I should go back, clean up *my* house before I litter others' regularly updated, and clean spaces.
