A very common topic among the Mumbaikars :P. I have never traveled by train in my school years. Just the occasional visits to relatives with my peeps.I used to loathe trains :P. The constant moving of the floors used to churn my stomach :P ( literally) :D.
"We need to go to Andheri for XXXXXX didi's wedding"
" awwww maann!!! " :P
But now, the tables have turned :P
I go to Dadar every weekday! At first, I used to get bored ( no fast trains :X) :P. But then, I learned to live with it. And then I found a way out. As a budding artist, observation skills is an important element for me. So I started observing my fellow passengers, the railway tracks and the surroundings. In first class compartment, the crowd is very much the same. But the second class compartment shows you almost every face of life! From working women to pen selling blind old women, the second class compartment is a treasure for observers like me :P
So, now when I board the 8.15 semi fast local , I intently open my ears and eyes to fill myself in with everything :P. Err, Literally :P. So now I look forward to my local train adventures :P, where I see various characters, hear various stories and experience various lives. :)
peace out! :P
