Mumbai Local Trains

How better can u know about local trains than ask a travelling Mumbaitie. The everyday frustration, anger, bad mouthing all gets vent out in this one heavenly place- Local train. Its just been 2 weeks since i have been travellin in the local trains and i say i have gained lots of patience and especially respect for those ladies who commute everyday. I mean just consider -How can u ever grow fat when u travel by the trains. I mean u generally stand all the way and even if u r sittin u get stamped by the persons who r standing. And then half your energy goes bad mouthing and cribbing about them to your co- passengers. Then also we can witness the fatest and the bulkiest ladies only in the local train. I havent ever seen such people when i travelled by bus or even in day to day life. But however they do clearly come to focus when the seat that can be occupied by 4 people turn to three( that also uncomfortably). People who want to get down at one station get at someother far ahead.
And the bhaji wale and the fisherwoman ( How can u forget them!!). They contribute to 40% of the frustration among the ladies with the lovely smell that they carry with them. And haan u also get highly educated with all the marathi gaalis.
All in all i am eagerly waiting for the damn rains to completely stop so that i can resume my goin to college by bike( which is HEAVENS...even though i used to crib about it before..never shall i again!!)

Bloody Engg

Tell me why the hell do our parents want us to do engg. Frankly speakin i do not find any gain in this field. Better still if u went to some institute and learnt some programming languages then still u would be much better than all the stupid engg's. But there comes the question of DEGREE. The so called privelage of being called an engineer. Bloody muggin up in the last one month is more than enough for u to gain that degree. And moreover here the intelligent ones are considered those who get distinction. Where the hell is knowledge. I know of so many people who get good marks but lack the knowledge. U pay the damn fees to the college for blank screens, faulty PC's, no lifts and gr8 faculty!!
And then u end up payin more money for the classes. Travellin expenditure should also be considered for some bloody attendance( ie we need to show our teachers that we exist).
