Almost five months since my last post, it is pretty evident that I have let down most of my fans who were following me, not that I had some die hard fans who use their almost-on-the-verge-of-getting-over-data pack in mobile for viewing my posts, but upon me going over their head by pestering and torturing them via Whatsapp for having a look at my posts, at one point, they would have definitely(at least hopefully) thought where this G went?! Well, for them, I would like to say 'I was little busy' . Read that again! Yes, you heard it right. Do not think I was pre-occupied with some work that I had no time to blink my eyes even to avoid losing a look at the screen or monitor, it is just a common phrase in this city of busy professionals. So yes, I would not want to be alienated by saying I was doing nothing, although I did nothing, still for the sake of not bringing the reputation of this city down, let me stick with the notion that I am busy. Now, enough of this. I messed up badly the last ten lines(Oh god! That is all I've written). Pardon me as my thought process has totally faded owing to the climate(Best I have witnessed, wish Sunday could go on forever, I am love with my bed). As I try to sit properly and type the next set of sentences(Remember, you cannot run away quickly from this boring piece yet!) I have a big yawn on my face. That is the hundred and fiftieth yawn of this day. More to come.
Bangalore is where I'm currently staying. Five months into the city and still no where close to my heart. Reason being, one second(Another yawn coming up!!) You know what, chuck the reason! I never planned to write that line. My first experience with this city after getting into the company, after a series of rigorous training, came when I went to my office, few yards from entering the office, I suddenly lost my trajectory of the visuals as instead of looking at the door, I was looking at the sky(What a clear sky! Beautiful it was). What I'm trying to say is basically, I fell down! Slipped from the staircase. Though immediately got up and looked around, nobody even cared to even smile(leave alone a pair of hands to help) People usually laugh(I clap and point and laugh when someone miserably slips down) but here, on a busy morning, pretty crowded place and nobody knew that a living being even existed. I realized that I'm part of something that will make me lose the very nature of being human.
Every day used to be the same, routine life of waking up, rushing to catch the shuttle(office bus basically, but shuttle is what these people call, sounds cool right? No, it is not for me!!) The cunning nature of humans will be pretty evident in the manner one would like to catch a seat in the bus(Pardon me, couldn't control this time, Yawn!!) A girl in my bus usually catches five seats(excluding hers), places her bag in one, a handkerchief in another, mobile in one, headphones in another and tries to cover one more seat with her hands. A guy who overtook me to sit, apparently sat over the headphones and she was like, I'm not going to say that as even the driver closed his ears over those pleasing words. Wow! What a start to day, poor chap just saved me.
I ended being part of the last row wherein the world is always bouncing and is always energetic and high and so much of curse associated with the row that, three of us had to hold our back while getting down. So much before having stepped into my office. A monster in the making(I thought). This is one episode of the bus saga in my five month career at office.
Still, a city which I feel can make one very much competent in nature, owing to the standards of different kind of people one comes across with. Among the thousands in the city, who are always in a hurry, seven days a week, twenty four hours a day, the rush in which one catches a bus or the hurry with which one walks, or the speed at which one speaks over phone, despite the gloomy energy that this city gives, here I am, walking with a whole new pair of shoes, specs, watch(the old ones got damaged, nothing much) with a new job, walking down the lane of my road to catch the bus, sorry shuttle, as the very politely speaking girl, runs past me, all I have is a smile, thinking of one famous dialogue from a famous sit-com "Welcome to the Real World, it sucks, but you will enjoy it!". All those who can associate these lame incidents with their life, keep smiling, for there is more to come from this "new-guy-part-of-the-corporate-world" and meanwhile, do search for the sit-com dialogue.
