Tomorrow is a Monday... Another week begins... I'm one of the few people who likes Mondays (I believe most people are still too much in the weekend mode to enjoy Monday mornings)..
The early morning trip in the bus, in the fresh morning air with the roads calm and free from traffic is an experience in itself - every minute of the trip is worth waking up early for... Watching the Sun's golden rays light up the city, early morning walkers, the beginning of a new day just starting to buzz with activity....
The next trip, a short journey by train (after a quick run to the station, and panting at the ticket counter, only to realize the train is late... oh, for the cup of tea I missed to hurry to the station...It plays over and over in my mind... ) a brief journey, pleasing enough to the eyes, but not so kind to the nose (ugh!!) ... Then a quick rush out of the station and some talks with the autowallah, or finding a bus on a lucky day... And praying a million times (to be on time...)... This short trip passes without much incident - the only things that catch the eye are the zillion red signals, traffic jams and the speeding hands of the clock!!! Arrive at the workplace at last!!!
Returning home is yet another adventure - depending on the time, and hunger(!!), it's either a bus or an auto, and at times, even the 45 minute walk passes very quickly (while chatting on the phone)...
Weekends are another story, marked by bus trips, walks, auto rides (totally squashed!!), classes...
On the whole, it's a busy life right now, but what fun...
Looking forward to being up by sunrise tomorrow... (and waking up others too ;) ) Hope the bus waits for me...
