Also called as City of dreams, City of drama and now a
City of a day sleeper –Me.
I’m responsible for so many things now. Like responsible
for being irresponsible by not waking up early and missing office bus daily. I have
become used to it and weird enough I like doing it.
Somehow that’s how my day starts.
In Bombay aka Mumbai aka Bumbae (whatever it is, I’m
gonna use Bombay henceforth) everybody is shit busy. It took me so many days to
realize that. Infact I have heard people
pray to not to meet any relative while going to work as it might just waste
their time.
Even the beggar at the signal was busier than me during
my first few days here; I mean he wouldn’t waste more than few seconds near one
car if he won’t sense a benevolent person inside.
So unlike a regular IT team my team is not boring, and I being
the youngest chap in the team surely gets pampered by them. Infact they have
gotten me a new nick name “lover boy” (I am still confused why?), I know it’s cheesy
but trust me its way better than ‘play boy’ or even ‘life buoy’ for that matter.
Apart from my team I made some new friends too, from
other department. Few of them are really cute. So far my
make-friends-and-be-nice-to-them motto is really going good.
After coming from Delhi I miss Metro the most. I think no
transportation system in Bombay can beat it. Because apart from few buses (which
have pretty low frequency), none of the transport system has AC inside. Not to
mention Bombay local, perhaps it’s the only life threat I have it here. I mean I find it pretty risky hanging from the
door like a monkey. And by the time I reach home I smell like mixed sweat
evaporated from so many people with whom I travel. But surprisingly I have like
doing it. I meet so many strangers on my way home who travel with me at the
same time like every day. There is a subtle care that we have for each other
now. We ask each other about their well being and stuffs like that. So if an
old man is asking you the reason behind your tensed face, am sure you will vent
out stuff much easily and all your work frustration would just vanish.
It’s lovely that my blog opens here in my office computer
but looks like there are so many issues pending on me and I can’t just keep
writing this stuff now so will continue with some more interesting stuffs in my
next post.
Abhi..u write really well.. I liked loverboy line the most..
