My first expereince with Mumbai Local - Day 1

So i needa report office by 10am. Da dropped me via car so it was easyride for me. The day filled with lot of presentations, kinda bored with same type of stuff cropping up in every presentation. Met guyz from A,B,C n L. But the interesting series of events happened in the evening, when i started for home. First i planned to go home via bus as i was really scared with the local train travelling. So i tried to find a bus for jogeshwari. After three stops i found a bus stop where i'll get the bus. Out of nowhere suddenly i thought of goin via train so I asked a guy about the dadar station. He said it's just 10 mins from here via bus and i boarded a bus. ticket was 4bucks n i reached the station in 10 mins. After that the real fight was to get a monthly pass. For nearly 15 mins i was trying to find the counter, Standing in the long line i came to know that i also need a photo for the pass. Now that was a big problem, i searched my purse but with no success. Now i was desperate to get the pass and without photo it was not possible. So i took my driving license and tore the photo. Presence of mind right... no worries i can stick the same photo back anytime. I got the pass from JOgeshwari to Churchgate. Now it was the time for real test, to board on the local train. I asked a few people as i was doing for two days to get every information i needed. So atlast the train was there and with that a flood of people tried to climb the train and a lot tried to jump out of it. After some pushing, i was able to get into one compartment. It was a second class one and not the first class for which i took the pass. It was stinking with sweat and i was hardly able to move. In every station first an outside force and then inside force was generating which made me stand at the same place for nearly half hour. Then it was time for Jogeshwari station, again i asked a few good people and they gently told me which side the station will come. At the station again an outward force got generated the only difference being this time i was also one of them who were generating force. Somehow i was able to jump out of the bogie after pushing a few people trying to get in. That moment i really understood the litreal meaning of the need of personal space. Then i asked again, the way to 24 carot multiplex. SOmebody told it is just 5 min walking distance, so i started and as usual got confused in between and reached there after 10 min of rigorous walk. Once i reached home i was drained and exhausted, but the experience i had with the local train was awesome and unforgettable.
