I AM A REBEL

Hey don't say here comes another one who just talks and talks about being rebellious.

I'm a rebel in more ways than one.........because I obey traffic rules, wear helmet while riding, come to office in time. I live in this half sleepy half enthusiastic district headquarter Belgaum in Karnataka.

This blog is not Belgaum bashing, I shifted from Bangalore to Belgaum because of my job.
Don't open your jaws wide, thinking as to why did I leave a world famous city to this sleepy town Belgaum. I will tell that story some other time.

I landed in this city on January 27th. Since then till May first week, I commuted in the city using the city buses. I got bored of lack of wings and when I had been to Bangalore I got my bike Bajaj Pulsar 150 DTS-i. My dad warned me that beware that city doesn't at all have traffic sense.
I had realized that bitter truth while crossing the roads. But I did not know that this city was this bad when it comes to traffic, I felt the pinch of it only when I found it very hard to ride and wade my way through the traffic and criss-crossing lanes.

People laugh at me when they see me wearing helmet, waiting for a traffic signal to go green, or if I wait for a pedestrian to cross the road.
