Bengalooru city buses.... It was a traffic signal...Not even a bus stop. My friend who was accompanying me to the bus stop suddenly yelled and in a minute I was pushed into a bus that had just come to a halt near us. She waved a 'Bye' and asked me to give her a call or message when I reached the place I was supposed to go. She is the same girl who thought I would get 'Lost' in Bangalore. :) This city traffic had no value for any one's time, so I asked my friend to drop me off at a bus stop and promised to inform her when I reach wherever I had to reach. Okay, the bus inched its way forward and I realized that the signal turned 'Green'. I was at the foot board and if my bus hits just another speed breaker ,I was sure to fall off the bus. Oddly, I was bothered if I would get a clear space to land on the road if I fall off the last step of the bus. So many vehicles on the road all jamming the way....

Year 2006 is coming to a close according to the calendar within another 12 minutes.. I am in front of my computer trying to handle all the new wishes on my mail box, my chat windows, and my mobile's inbox... Wishing people Happy New year and acknowledging the wishes.... My mind is tossed up to even think of a new year wish currently..An untoward incident happened in the family and i have been managing my level best to handle it on my mind apart from other things that are giving me a head ache... Still, trudging on.. just wondering aloud.. what is stopping in this world just because something went wrong with some one? Dogs are barking outside.. My net connection is down... My watch shows 11:55 some one is bursting crackers.. may be his watch shows 12:00 now... I am here scribbling away to glory...fortunately it is not handwritten.. My folks are tired and are sleeping... My close people are travelling.... One of my friend is at a resort... Some one i know is studying... Just how this...
