The constantly moving pixelated text bothered me more than ever. The train kept passing stations, wheels rolling on the familiar tracks.

Banana Guy
There is a guy who has a suitcase and a bunch of bananas in a plastic poly bag. I reckon he is traveling. My best guess would be he is going home for Raksha Bandhan, a Indian festival where sisters tie Rakhi (a thread) on their brother's wrists.

Metro Morning
I wanted to post here for a long time and for once if you have read some of my previous posts, you would want to shoot me right now. Why? Because I say the same darn thing all the time. I know that is old and I need a new statement to support my absence… Continue reading Metro Morning
