Nowadays, I spend around 2.5 hours in commuting between work and home. This gives me a lot of time to do time pass and due to my ever restless nature, I have to constantly engage myself into different activities, like – sleeping, listening to radio, reading (but stopped as it gave me a headache), writing blogs (though I lost all of them while updating my iPod), and most of the time playing games.
But today, I tried something new – peeping into the windows of BMTC buses. As it’s a Bus day today, I thought what better thing to do than this 
. And what did I find – a young lady, entusiastic, and eager to reach her destination, maybe her first week at work; a pair of twinkling and inquisitive eyes belonging to a cute little girl sitting in the lap of her father, who was lost in world of worries, probably of the future of the girl; a smug lady typing away on her laptop oblivious to people around, in a crowded Volvo; another lady, somber, a strange stoichness about her face, as if made still with the daily rut of life; a bunch of college kids, giggling, gesturing and teeming with joy, maybe bunking the college and going for a movie; a formaly dressed foreigner accompanied with an Indian, scared, thrilled, his eyes reminded me of the eyes of people embarking on a rollercoaster; a lady, maybe in her late thirties, eyeing everyone, in a quest to find an empty seat. In short, it was a quilt of varied expressions, a mixed bag of people from all ages, class and genres.
Man, this was an interesting thing to do, might try it everyday

Nice way to pass more than 2 hours in a bus.
. On a very few occasion I had tried a book or magazine – but 20 min is too short for that.
I spend around 40 min in the bus (20 each way) – and I prefer to take a nap

Well, I am not in the bus, forgot to mention that in the post. I commute by a cab, and thus the title – peeping “into” the windows!
You should also try this sometime 
And 2 hours is a long time… I sometimes don’t get sleep, then I have to really look for ways to entertain myself…

He he. Cute. You know me has spent all my time doing stuff in the bus. Now that ranges from reading books (I never read at home), Editing my magazine pages, writing poetry (the best ones I say) and doing a lot of DOTS (Dancing on the Seat). :=)
