Signal-ism...:)

Morning during office days starts with the same usual feeling.No matter what 
your state of mind is-U need to
-->Get Up
-->Dress up &
-->Show up
I know Lots of other Needful cum Natural Steps comes in between those and 
that includes one of those unavoidable step i.e 
"to encounter the traffic @ Red Signals" before reaching the Office. 
 
I have always a little story Going within me about encountering Such Traffics 
@Red Signals.It Starts With my wait for red signal to go green,and realizing about 
some another Vehicle comes and halts beside yours.(Most of the times the Vehicle 
will be superior then yours...But lets not concentrate on  this aspect) 
 
Now Some cases Arise here-->
If(Vehicle==bike) 
Case 1.Person riding the bike is alone.
In this case I generally do not care and my eyes automatically searches some other 
on goers.
 
Case 2.Person riding the bike has another bloke on his bak seat.
Again Who cares then?? 
 
Case 3.Person riding the bike has a beautiful Chick on his back seat.
Problem lies here. First of the many things I do,is to curse my flat partner
(Most of the times he is on the receiving end) whoz there with me in the back seat.
Then out of little jeolousness, I give that "how come he deserves that gal?" look 
to the Person.And then the girl ... Star of my yet another short love stories @ Red Signals.
I know i cant do much (rather my gentlemanship never allows me to do anything gross..;)) 
but just overtaking them once the green signal happens gives me immense sadistic 
pleasure.

If(Vehicle==Cars)
In this case I  tend to feel little inferior;)
Person seating in the back seats of the car generaly ignores the people Surrounding
outside.(Basically,Working on the Laptop With Bluetooth wala ear plugs ON doesnt 
allow them to do so):D
Apart from admiring the choice of the colour of his car..I have this very bad Nack 
for searching the scratches on those cars and rate the drivers talent accordingly.
(My this Style of "RATING DRIVER'S SKILLs" Confirms-->
Number of scratches on the Car Driven by females to be greater then Number of 
scratches on the Car Driven by males):D


If(vehicle==Auto)
Well,its my time to feel a bit superior now. First thing i do is to count the 
number of people sitting inside the auto.(Numbers always raises furrows in my brows)
And the second thing i do is to try and find the auto driver among the people sitting 
in the front seats.(Trust me...Its Not An Easy Job to Find..:D)

IF(Vehicle==Truck/Tracktor/Cranes)
Now these Vehicles always makes me realize that in the world where 
"Bigger is always Better" ,U little-mini-tiny poor bike wala soul 
Dont have Rights to survive..:D
I just gulp Those feelings and waits for Red Signals to get Green Soon..:)

IF(Vehicle==Bus)
I feel ,more often then not buses gets filled up(or the opposite,gets emptied) 
at red signals rather then their usual respective bus stops. 
Soo Red signals somewhat are an Un-official but a temporaray Stops For them..;)
 
If (Vehicle==Scooty)
Fine,this Case Actually Violates the Murphy Law.Anyways,Sometimes it did Happened.
You tend to notice the Shades Of Pink Color(Naturally,the favorite Color for them;) 
around Yourselves.And Like Telepathically Saying To all of us out there that 
'Y should boys have all the fun':D
Following the theory of 'Girls First' ,I let them drive first once the 
green signal happens.(Sheer Gentle-manship...U C):D

Soo..This is how it goes for me.
Every Time I pick my helmet and switch starts My bike,I get myself Ready for these 
make-shift and User-defined Adventurous Journey to the Office.
From one red Signal to another there's always happens Little change of Combination
of same vehicles u encountered in the last signal.
And With Number of vehicles Ever Increasing On the road and dimensions of Roads 
remaining more or less the same ,add to it with more red signals,Day is not far 
behind when ppl Will start finding their soul-mates @red signal(Thora sa Pun-Intended):D
(In my defense...have seen Ppl interacting too by just asking about 
some non-existing addresses):P 
 
Dat's How I reach My destination and park my bike, thereby leaving all the stories 
behind just to Swipe In for the work Dat awaits Me for the day...:))
