Perhaps it's been more than a year that we've had to accept loadshedding almost on a daily basis. But today the government has summed up everything and declared Nepal in a state of 'power crisis'... and that means we will have to learn to live in darkness. There's already 10 hours of powercuts per day and it will increase to 14 hours per day from coming Monday, and rise up to at least 16 hours per day from the month of Falgun.
I wonder what we are going to do all those evenings without lights, TV and computer... but then, on a second thought, we are already quite used to it, aren't we?
Even if we get inverters, I wonder how we will recharge the battery. And we can't think about generators because God knows when the government will declare Nepal in a state of 'fuel-crisis'.
And candles?? Not a good option either!
Right now, I can't think of anything else except how badly I am gonna miss reading at night. Reading my favourite books, the old pages of my diaries... or simply writing something. Playing web-games... watching my favourite television shows... or simply waking up doing anything else but fighting with myself to make myself asleep... Damn... I will have to change everything about me... and that's ridiculous.
Thank God I don't have to do homeworks anymore... I wonder how the school-going students manage to do their assignments or iron their uniforms!!
Simple things in life have become so complex... here in Nepal!!
I just pray that no thief breaks into anyone's home... I hope we can still feel secure! I wish no student gets punished for not being able to complete the homework if the reason is 'loadshedding'. I hope the 'power-crisis' will end soon. I hope I will get to read at night again, and not be forced to go to bed early only because of loadshedding...
I hope our life in dark will come to an end soon....
